Whether your rear-view mirror has fallen off the windscreen, or whether you demand to alternate it over of damage, mounting the mirror back onto the glass is a quite manageable endeavour. Once you gain the supplies you Testament demand, be prepared to appropriate your bit. Doing a precipitation business on a mirror replacement could bob to injury or a cracked windscreen.
Instructions
1. Gate the crayon and brew an outline on the gone of the windscreen where the mirror was originally mounted. Whether the fossil mirror is yet in domicile, simply outline the mount. Provided the mirror is misplaced, aim where the residual glue has been left behind.
2. Hold pressure onto the mount for the time stated in the replacement kit's instructions. Don't push too hard--you can crack the windshield by applying too much pressure on such a small area.6. Wipe the crayon mark off the outside of the windshield with window cleaner and a rag.
3. Use the alcohol rub that comes with the mirror replacement kit To cleanse the area where the mirror will be mounted. If the mount is not connected to the new mirror, insert it into the mirror's base before proceeding To pace 4. Most mounts are held in place with an Allen bolt or set screw that you can tighten with the screwdriver or Allen wrench.
4. Follow the instructions on the mirror replacement kit for adding the adhesive to the mount and the windshield. Place the mount against the windshield, lining it up with the mark you made earlier.
5. Get into the car and carefully take the razor blade and scrape the remaining glue away from the windshield. If the old mirror is still in place, carefully work the blade around the edges of the mount, inserting the blade between the mount and the glass carefully until you have cut through the glue. Coming at the glue from all sides will allow you to chop the glue away in the shortest amount of time.
