Exclamation Falling Rear Mirror
my rear view mirror keeps falling off. im wondering if you guys have used something stronger. it usually happens when it gets warm.

i have tried...
the mirror adhesives you can get at any auto store [all fell off within a couple days]
super glue, crazy glue [fell of the next day]
JB weld [lasted a couple months, but looking for something much permanent]

is there anything out there that is stronger?

Duct tape it from the outside. It will look ghetto, but it will keep it in place

See if you can buy a mirror kit from a glass shop.
