The Permatex instructions clearly state DO NOT use the cleaner adhesive on
the button, ONLY use it on the windshield. Your better off cleaning the
button with warm dish soapy water and rinsing well. Dry with a paper towel
and keep it wrapped in the paper towel until ready for adhesive. Do not
touch the face of the button again. Oils on your fingers will stop it from
sticking well.
I did exactly what you did but my mirror keeps falling off I guess it’s to
eat because it’s not staying up.I live in Florida. any suggestions?
Mine came off due to summer heat. Thank you so much, you are a life
saver!!!! Now I can fix it easily.
Very helpful for me! Thanks for your help
Thank you! This was a huge help!
Did this last night and so far so good. however, I did wait about 9 hrs
before I installed the mirror to the button because I went to bed as soon
as I glued the button to the windshield
well done
thank you, I could not figure out how to get the metal button off. You
kept me from having to call for help :)
Awesome video, Thanks, My issue is it took a chunk (from inner layer) of
glass when it fell. Should I clean and re-attach close by or try to glue
glass to glass? Thanks again. I am in Arizona, Heat is not gonna be a
problem for next 4 to 5 months.
This is the best video or instructions for this. Hardest part was removing
the metal button from the mount bracket on my ’99 Buick Century. But
finally realized, it just popped out. Also had a clear plastic piece that
remained attached to windshield which was hard to remove even with razor
blade. But, even with arthritis in both hands, it went great. Thanks.
A quick question, my mirror was attached fine, my kid pulled on my dice
hanging from the rear view mirror and the mirror seperated at the swivel
ball connecting to the base of the button, it seems like a super tight fit,
what’s the best method to reattach it?
Thanks it worked great
Thank you so much. I didn’t even think to take that little piece first,I
was trying to put the whole mirror on.
You helped me allot.
Thanks that was very, very helper for me I never do nothing like this and
the final result is very good!!
Well-done instructional video. I’ve had to reinstall my mirror several
times on my ’04 Monte Carlo and it kept popping off. Apparently this
Permatex kit should help resolve this issue. Thanks for your help.

This video was very helpful. Thank you for sharing.
Excellent.Great detail.Thanks!
This was extremely helpful, thank you!
Your video was a big help to me. Very thorough, concise and understandable.
Thank you!
Thanks a lot for your help. I really had no idea how to do this until I
watched your video. I think I can do this. Thanks again.
Great video! I feel confident about doing my own now
I was going to pull off the removable part of the mirror but when i pulled
it the whole thing came down and the damn window broke….. now i have to
replace the whole front window :(
Thanks for the video. Helped me a whole lot. Only problem I had was
removing the metal part on the mirror.
What if the glass has a crack in it? , does it not work because I put on
the mirror it keeps falling
I have a 2009 Honda Civic Hybrid, I’m having a difficult time removing the
“button”, there are two levers inside, it’s a 2-person job, but I still
can’t detach it from the mirror, any suggestions? besides going to the
dealer?
There is no spring clip to remove the button on my 2005 Ford Explorer rear
view mirror. Any idea on how to remove that metal “button”? I don’t want
to break it.
All of the rest of this video looks great and very helpful. I did buy the
Permatex Rearview Mirror Adhesive..
Thanks
This helps as I’m a jack of many trades, and a friend at church asked me if
it was odd that the mirror fell off the windshield. I knew it wasn’t, but
didn’t have the details of how they were replaced properly, and needed to
know to save her another dealership trip for her 80’s Buick.
thanks！！！
thanks for this. sometimes the seemingly simple things are the ones that
get screwed up; thanks for the details and the tip on the magic marker. Im
doing this today and this was just what I needed.
thank you so much ,, that was really helpful,,
Thank you for this! I’m a Mom, trying to help my teenager fix his mirror!
I had no idea how to reinstall it after it fell off. This video was
extremely helpful!!!
Thank you, sir. I didn’t know how to remove the little metal piece from the
rear view mirror. Your video helped me a lot!
