I have fitted a new windscreen in my cabby (pre face lift) and have come to refit the rear view mirror that stick on to the windscreen but after 23 years it has lost its adhesion.

I have tried a couple of after market adhesive strips but nothing appears to be strong enough to hold the mirror.

Anyone come across this problem?”¦or how to solve it before I reach for the super glue?

Cheers
