    I have literally just ordered this! Tried so many things and been unsuccessful. Feeling hopeful about this now! 👍🏼

      thanks, Kev, I didn't find a video when it happened to me, so thought I should add one just in case it might help someone else 👍

    Do you just attach it and turn it hard? I mean mine pretty hard to turn for it to stick as I’m afraid I’ll break the windshield hmm

    How is it holding up after all this time? Also I want to use the jb weld clear weld epoxy. I didn't know this one is good for glass to since it doesn't says it, this is the original jb weld formula right that you used?

      Unfortunately couldn't tell you, I sold the car some time ago now, it was all fine up until then, the job weeks that I used was technically for metals, but it seemed to work just fine for me! 👍

    It is the right way of doing it but WAY to much glue and it’s just created an uneven surface so eventually with the vibration it will come off again, same process but just a thing layer of glue and job done 👍🏻

      more specifically my mirror itself fell off from the metal disk that hold it and now its super hard to put the mirror back, how do u recommend i fix this?

      @@ilyrexzy Hiya, the mirror and the disc that holds the mirror on the glass are keyed so that they kind of snap in position when you twist them together, it does take some force just like when you remove the disc from the mirror!
