Following on from the debacle of the rear view mirror falling off the windscreen in hot weather, I settled down to the job of sticking it back on. Initially I used an expensive Summit sticky rubber pad, sold for the job. The initial attempt was a failure and the second attempt lasted about 1hr in hot sunlight. I next tried sticky pads from my local car parts shop. These were half the price, but only managed to secure the mirror for 2 days before it fell off again. At this point, I decided to go the superglue route, so purchased:-
Which has now managed to last for a week! Unfortunately, only one rubber pad was included in the package, so only one attempt is possible. I hope that's the end of the problem. There was much less wobble with the rubber pad supplied, it seemed stiffer. Reading the reviews, The rubber sticky pads have very little chance of success in hot weather and even the gold plated 3M product doesn't seem to work too well in very hot climates. The Loctite product seems to suffer from shelf aging according to the failure reports. This Amazon product has worked well in my case, but only time will tell if I have really solved the problem. This rear view mirror is quite heavy I have found, when comparing it with other cars.
