I admire your honesty. Thanks for the help.
The best part of this video is the speed and COMPLETE thoroughness of steps! No time for bs thank you!
Thanks for that great feedback!
YES - to the point. Clear and precise. TY
Agree!
In agreement
This is what am talking about breve precise to the point not a lot of blablabla great video appreciate it very much
my truck doesnt have screw. there is somd kind of metal retaining clip
@@abergethirty How did you remove it?
I've never heard you talk about this
This video took me from crying in a parking lot in frustration to knowing how to fix my problem. Thank you
Glad it helped!
Rockstar! Savior!
I was at the end of my rope. I had given up all hope. The bullet was in the chamber and then I saw this video. Now I have a fixed rear view mirror
Same - I’m crying now- have to see if the metal part removes from mirror now… ugh..
You dont need a rear view mirror bro. No need to cry lol
I'm in the process of moving and starting a new job and my rearview mirror fell off on the road! I was freaking out and crying! I just wanna say today my bf and I followed these instructions and it worked! We are so GRATEFUL because we are on a budget for funds and were worried that we would've had to go to the auto shop to get it fixed! You saved us the time and MONEY so we thank YOUUUUUU so very much ❤
Your instructional video was brief, to the point and you didn't miss critical steps. If other CZcamsrs would follow your example and cut out the unnecessary dialogue, then it wouldn't be so frustrating to watch DIY videos. Well done sir. Followed your instructions and used the same products you recommended in this and everything worked out like a charm! Thanks for posting this Chris. You did superb job!
Thanks for that great feedback!
Mirror fell off on my 97 Suburban. This is 2022. I’m the original owner. This truck owes me nothing and still runs like new at 187,000 miles. Your vid was clear and explained how to do this repair perfectly. Hardest part was scraping off the old glue from the metal button that holds the mirror. Essential to place it in the mirror to scrape it. Took at least 15 minutes just to do that if not more.
Thanks for posting this. Subscribed.
Straightforward video for straightforward fix! Everything you said aligned with what I was thinking, but it was very nice to have your reassuring guidance and confirmation. Thanks much!
Chris Fix and Chris Notap.
The two Chris's that have helped me sirvive being an adult
Hi Chris. Finally had the opportunity to try-out your frying-pan-pizza hack. To say the least, I was skeptical. But through a confluence of events I was presented with a pan, a lid and 3 leftover pizza slices..so I tried it..and I can't believe leftover pizza can be that great. As you say, "even better than when it comes straight from the pizza shop". Thanks!!
I used this particular Permatex product a year ago to fix a rearview mirror similar to the one in your video. Just today the mirror came off again so I thought I'd do a bit of research before attempting the fix a second time. Your tip about wiping the back of the button with the towelette is golden; I believe the repair failed as I followed the printed instructions carefully yet the bond between glue and button failed. I remember having to scrape glue off both the windshield *and* the button when the factory adhesive failed; this time all the glue remnants were on the windshield and none were left on the button. Thanks!
This is why I love CZcams. Followed the instructions, worked perfectly. Thanks!
thanks so much for uploading this! just reattached my rear view mirror with minimal hassle thanks to these instructions.
Wow, things have changed over the years. I'm really glad I watch this. It is simple and fast. Thanks Chris you did a great job.
Thanks for the tips! I needed a replacement button, and the only one they had came with adhesive on it. I scraped off that garbage and used the stuff you recommended, and so far so good!
I'm so glad I watched this before attempting this.
Best tip: Mark with tape on the outside.
What a great help. Followed your instructions and now my mirror is back up.
Also purchased the same product you used just incase.
Thanks man. Good video!
Thank you for all the great advice! I have watched a few of your april fools vids and finally needed help with a DIY project. Im female and do know about some things thanks to working in garage with grandfather and 20 yrs of ex-hubby. (I did help rebuild an MG with another lady many years ago before yt vids(80's-90's). But it has been so long I forgot some simple stuff like this. What you don't use, you will lose sadly. I used expo markers inside to trace instead of tape outside because I was afraid I wouldnt remember round vs flat edge in my 18 yr old jeep. The guy at O'Reillys auto parts sold me Permatex saying it was the best glue they carried for this job. Thought i was subscribed since you wandered into my feed occasionally but found I wasn't. I am now subscribed! I have several DIY projects planned like detailing and can't wait to watch more of your vids on the projects. Many thank you's from a 52yo grandma.
Thank you for taking the time to post this very helpful video.
Kudos for including both Celsius and Fahrenheit temps. Top shelf guide
Awesome video! Short, to the point, super informative! Thank you!
Great video Chris! You saved me so much time, appreciate the detailed and direct approach w/o all the “fluff”. Thanks,
Chris- Terrific video. Straight forward, to the point, and good video/audio. Who in the world gives this a thumbs down? I'm very grateful for your efforts.
Thanks for that great feedback and yes, I wonder the same thing. I guess it's people just having a bad day.
So helpful. Short and sweet. Thank you!
Thank you. Straight to the point with clear instructions.
Excellent video. Clear simple instructions. Thanks.
Worked perfectly! Bought the exact stuff and had no issues what so ever! Thanks!
That’s great!!
Quick, right to the business. Thanks!
Great and helpful video! I wanted to upgrade from a normal mirror to an auto dimming homelink compass style but the new one wasn't compatible with my old mount. I was able to swap them out! Thanks for the information
The temperature where I’m located was 95+ degrees so 20 degrees hotter than the 75 degree limit they recommend. I put a soft ice pack in a towel and put it on the windshield over the button area. I anchored the other end of the towel with a weight on top of the roof to keep the towel from sliding off. I felt the glass inside the car and it was 65-70 degrees so well within the range to install the kit. So far it’s working. I had my windshield replaced just before the pandemic hit (February 2020) and they used what looked like double sided tape. I was surprised it lasted as long as it did. The windshield was $225 cheaper than Safelight. They wanted $350 to install it. I had a new one installed for $125. Safelight rips people off. (8-22-20)
Someone has to pay for all their advertising so the customer does.
@@whatsnewonthemountain Same for the constant drug, insurance and other ads. We pay for all of it. Imagine if we nationalized several key industries like energy, drug companies and insurance. We could save trillions in waste in ads, duplicate bureaucracies and how those industries buy politicians to screw us even more.
Thanks! I think this will help a lot for the old Cadillac I just bought. The mirror has just been dangling off the ceiling by a wire and it's really bothering me. Glad to see that it will be easy to fix.
Great video. Short and to the point, and showed us exactly what to get. 10/10
Perfect thank you I my rear view just fell off and I went and got this stuff I did not know what to do... u saved me some time!! Thanks!
Thank you so much. I did what you said step by step and it worked for my Nissan pathfinder and it saved me a ton of money. Great video.
I appreciate you brother. My foxbody's mirror does as well.
Thank you so much for the lack of crap in your video :)
You covered every eventuality to prevent failure. Thank you
Very informative, Chris Notap. Getting ready to reglue my own rearview mirror. I'm following your excellent example. Thank you
Precise and straight to the point well done
Yes! Precise, straight to the point. Thank you!
Thanks for speaking loudly and clearly.
5 years later and this video is still the best diy for this particular problem that I've seen
Great video - short and to the point without all that hoopla that so many others do. You’ve just earned yourself a like and subscriber👍🏼👍🏼
Watched this a couple of times then went out and did it in no time at all. Thanks!
Thanks for your video! I left work today and my window was sitting in my drink holder. I ordered the stuff so I'll see how it goes when it comes. :)
i did that on my car, same glue, it works awesome
Short and to the point. I usually have to hear “how-to”videos at 2x speed to get through the nonsense. Left on normal speed and explanation was perfect. Thx
I try to do all my videos like that! Thanks for the feedback!!
It did help. I love it! Thank you!
Good video and 'I liked' it. I used the JB Weld about 15 years ago and still have the same van, so I can testify that that also works too.
Thank you for the video! The instructions are not that easy to understand and watching your video made it quick and simple!
Am giving you a thumbs up because you went straight to the point. Thank you
Incredible video on rear view mirror repair. Thank you
found this after already using versachem which worked very well. I did everything like you did but gosh I wish I had found this beforehand...would've saved tons of time researching reviews and various different instructions. this is the perfect how to format, thanks.
Glad I could help
Thanks for the video, straight to the point
You sir saved me a ton of money! God almighty I was thinking of having to bring the vehicle to a local glass repair shop
Great tips; thanks!
Very helpful. And, sidenote, watching this in July 2024, that same $5.99 kit now ranges anywhere from $10.97 at Walmart to $18.97 at Auto Zone!
Straight to the point and very well explained 🙏🏽
Chris,
Your video is detailed, concise, and thoroughly helpful. Thank you for helping me and so many others with this quick vid!
I realize it has been five years since you posted this instructional piece, but I hope all is well in your life.

Thabnks Chris, quick, easy and to the dang point - appreciate that! now to go fix it
Great video help me a lot I didn't have to remove any glue off it was hot that the glue stuck to the windshield lol. I just peeled it off cleaned like you did it worked like a charm 👍
That’s what I’m going through right now!!! Came out this morning, windshield off, all glue on the glass.
Amazing! This helped me so much!
Thank you, this is the first time I have had a rear view mirror fell off.
You are right, the instructions on pkg says use activator only on windshield.
It makes sense to do the button too.
Thanks again.
I love that he knows better than the manufacturer. 😆
And still relevant today dec 2021. Thanks!
Thanks so much for the information, I purchased your recommended glue, and it bonded the mirror wonderful as you instructed. Thank you.
Thank you!
Thanks for the help! Worked great.
Thanks so much. This helped a ton
My mirror came off and I tried the stuff from the parts store. It was cilycone (sp?), and didn't work. Just made a rubbery mess. I finally took it to a glass place and the guy only charged me $10. to do it. Looked like he used what you did too. It worked great, as long as you follow the instructions.
Thank you. Great video
So helpful! I can do this.
Straight to the point 💪🏽
Nice and simple. Thank you!
Thank you
This video was extremely helpful! Thank you so much!
This just happened to me this weekend. I got in the car and the mirror was on the floor. I tried Velcro. Dumb idea, I know, but I thought it would be a temporary fix until I could figure it out. I'm going to try your advice in this video. Wish me luck!!
GreaT Video!!! Very simple and easy to understand. Precise ad straight to the point. Keep up the GREAT work!!!
