Rear View Mirror Installation
I was washing my front windshield today and my rear view mirror just fell off as I was trying to clean the area around the mirror mount.
I dont have a clue on how to put it back together. I have the mirror, the spring, and the metal washer peice. I'm pretty sure the metal is what slides into the mount that is on the window. I dont know if I'm missing any other parts since I didnt see the who mirror actually fall.
Can anyone help me out w/ this? Thanks a bunch.

So is the "mount" still on the window? If them metal piece came off the window, you will need to have a glass installer EPOXY it back on (better than adhesive).
I'll go get my mirror assembly (it's out of the car) and take some pictures so you can see how it goes back together.
