What adhesive can reattach the 15X spot mirror to the main mirror. It came loose, detached in the shipment. It has fallen off. I want it back on.

Ours is great. If I have a problem, lowes carries a line of adhesive for glass.

You could probably use any type of moisture proof adhesive or epoxy if used in a bathroom.

Hi there. I would go to the craft store Michaels ( or online ) and get Goop or E-6000 Glue. Both should hold just fine. you would have to lay it flat to glue it and then use some masking tape to hold it in place until the glue dried. I always use either of these glues for many projects. They dry clear and work wonders. Use a toothpick to get off extra glue around the sides. Good luck to you and Happy New Year!

For me personally, the little mirror gets in my way. I wish mine would come off. I Would probably use super glue....

I once thought the material was like contact cement, but on a roll. SO, sure, it will adhere to a mirror, but what do you do to remove it later? Could break the glass! Maybe a small mirror could be pried off. I would rather use mechanical means to mount it.

I have a smooth shower wall, and the adhesive from the mirror failed after about a week. I cleaned the shower wall with alcohol per instructions. I found the mirror and the hook on the floor. I then used a 3m command strip hook and it is doing well so far.

Totally weird, sounds like you've done all the right things...tried a razor blade yet? Sounds like it is impregnated into the glass, the way auto windshields have an 8 inch runner of tint across the top. I still don't think the adhesive remover has any value...have you tried goof off or OOPs? Since I can't picture it, I guess if it didn't look to weird you could put the film right over the top & hope it doesn't look bizarre. Sorry that's all I got

the replacement mirrors are adhesive. instructions come on the package. simplest and most affordable replacement ever! nice thing, is you don't have to buy the whole mirror part, just the replacement glass.

I have powered and heated, the replacement doesn't have the heat element in it so I just left the heating cord that plugged into the broken mirror disconnected. Then you attach the replacement mirror on top of the mirror holder with strong double stick adhesive strips. The holder is what moves with power mirrors so that still functions properly.

remove plastic trim inside door pry off carefully with screw driver or small pry bar, remove bolts, remove old broken mirror, attach new one. trim piece should snap back in

A small amount of glue from any auto parts store that is designed to re-attach rear view mirrors will make anything stick to the glass. To fix jus the broken handle if most is still attached, krazy glue or gorilla glue gel will work.

Yes it is safe, just try placing the mirror in a couple of spots to make sure it has the correct visibility before you remove the adhesive paper. Also this mirror rotates 360 degrees so finding a good view is very simple. Ps when removing it permanently for any reason simply spray some Goof Off behind the new mirror and use a plastic putty knife to seperate the two.

There is a clamp that attaches the mirror housing the OEM mirror housing. It uses 2 screws to tighten the clamp. Then the glass attaches with a screw that goes in the back of the housing.

I used a product called SealIt from the automotive dept for sealing leaks, strong adhesive and doesn't harm backing on mirror

I have used this type of mirror for over twenty years, and currently have four of them in use (homes in different parts of the country). You could pull the mirror off of the helmet mount by pulling the ball out of the socket. You run the risk of breaking that socket/ball or greatly reducing the tension of the socket/ball coupling which would possibly resulting in the mirror flopping/moving during use. I HAVE NOT tried to remove and reattach any of the mirrors I have owned.

No. There are products intended for this purpose that would be better. Search for "rear view mirror adhesive".

The one you are showing or asking about just sticks to the outside of your existing mirror. I ordered these in the first place and was not real happy with the fit. I returned them and ordered the replacement uppers and was very happy. If you have questions about the replacment installation go to utube there are a couple good videos on the subject

My wife's did the same thing. We took it apart and tried to tighten the screws and did somewhat, but it didn't help. So now she uses 2 books of matches and wedges them in at the bottom. I know that's not what you wanted to hear but it works and she reakky likes that mirror.

EASY! Get a small piece of foam - we used thin slice of carpet foam that is tapered so it gets a little thicker towards one end - and keep it stuck gently at bottom - mirror stays in place no problem. I have a 10X mirror stuck on the Ott mirror on one side and 15X (scary!) on the other - 15X is heavier so it definitely tends to tilt mirror but foam keeps it in place nicely and no trouble to do it. Takes a second. You could use any relatively stiff foam or even plastic or aluminum foil - anything you have that won't harm the mechanism. best wishes!

Yeah. Anything that attached via double tape can screw up the OEM mirror. You just have to get your fingertip between the BS Mirror and the OEM mirror, then work your way in there to separate it.
