Mirror, Mirror on the floor...
 

...This situation I do abhor.

Okay, so my rear-view mirror fell off today. Nothing special; it happens, right? Sure, even while driving.

...but has it ever happened not because the adhesive failed, but because the CHUNK of GLASS (about 2mm thick) it's holding onto broke off? :sad:

"J.B. Weld'll fix it." Sure did, that is until I *lightly* pressed the mirror's mounting plate to the glass [about the amount of pressure to manually close your computer's optical drive].

Now, there's an almost perfectly vertical crack from weather-strip to weather-strip.
:wallbash::wallbash:

This is the original glass, at five years of age. Anyone else experience major windshield failure similar to this?

.

I have heard of this before, my buddies cracked as well, off to go get a new windshield...

wow, thats crazy.

If you have two drivers or wife or girl friend that consistantly changes the mirror, I have seen it on an 8 year old car.

There is special glue for glass.

Nothing else works. I've tried over the year and you have to use Glass Glue.
