I used double sided industrial tape and it fell off again. I would love to know what it is stuck on with originally - good thread!

most local car accessory shop sell double sided sticky pads for this

Try your local windscreen replacement garage. Mine glued it back in seconds and didn't even charge.

Adhesives are made for just this purpose - an example being "Loctite Rear View Mirror Bonder", available for around £3-4 from most car accessory shops, including Halfords

It's worth remembering for some mirrors, that you shouldn't try and stick the entire mirror onto the screen. These rear view mirrors actually slide on to a small metal 'button'. The metal button should be removed from the mirror fist, cleaned, then stuck to the screen using the special adhesive. When the adhesive has set (usually only a minute or two in warm temperatures), the mirror can be slid back onto the button.

There was a post like this reciently. I have had the same problem.

take your car to autoglass and ask them if they can help, they wills tick it on for you for nothing. I gave the guy somthing for doing it as a thankyou. but you don't have to.
