I tried heating the glass with a hair dryer and using a razor blade to remove the mirror mounting pad with no luck.
So do I need to get a heat gun or is there better way? Thanks for you input. -Don |

Heat gun. You want to break down the adhesive. Search out the failure point for mirror adhesive. You may have to heat it several times before trying to force it. I had a parts car that had a big chunk glass out of the windshield where the mirror was mounted. Kind of strange. No cracks just a big chip of glass missing. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif)
