I looked around, but was not able to find where you mount the rear view mirror on the windshield. Does anyone have the dimensions? Mainly from the top of the mirror patch to the bottom of the chrome around the top of the windshield.
Thanks in advance for the help!! |

How do you remove the base? and stick it on?
My car the base is about 4" but the wife's is less than 2-1/2". |

I have been successful 3 time at this but it is risky. Heat will break down the glue. I use a Mapp gas torch that has instant start. I use a piece of sheet metal as a shield so I don't overheat the glass. I hold the torch parallel to the glass and heat the base in bursts making sure I don't get too much heat on the glass. I use a rotating motion on the mirror instead of pulling it. |
