How to Reattach the Interior Rear-View Mirror

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Rearview mirror

In this video, learn how to reattach the rear-view mirror of your car that may have come loose. First, obtain a good adhesive to fix the mirror: if you're interested in the same glue recommended by the YouTuber, you can find it on Amazon with the code B000AL2RI2 for £7.50, including delivery for Prime customers. You will also need a blade to remove any adhesive residue from the support that held the mirror. To remove it more easily, you can also detach the support and then refit it. There will likely be adhesive residue on the support that remained attached to the glass, so remove that as well. This operation should be done at a temperature between 10 and 24 degrees Celsius, applying a drop in the centre of the plate, ensuring the correct orientation of the plate (otherwise, it won't come off) and allowing it to dry for half an hour. Now you can refit the mirror and tighten the fixing screw. Job done.
