Hi, car was being cleaned the other day and cab rear view mirror came off. What's the best way to refit? Can you buy the correct pads to fit to windscreen?

Same happened to me, I used the glass glue that Halfrauds sells.

Make sure not to put on too much, spread it evenly on the mirror, you then have to hold it in position until it sets (5-10min).

Works well and has lasted the better part of 2 years so far...

I've had this happen too. Bought a Loctite glue from ebay - comes with a mesh that you cut to size then soak with the supplied glue. Hold in place for a minute and it's rock solid.
