[DML] Re: 3M VHB Tape on Rear-View Mirror?

["Harold McElraft" <hmcelraft@xxxxxxx>]

You should get the mounting "pad" from DMCH for the OEM mirror. I 
assume the black vinyl piece stayed on the windshield - it doesn't 
matter it is a good guide if it stayed on - no need to remove it just 
clean it off (and the mirror mount too), put the new pad on it, then 
put on the mirror.

I have been playing around for a while trying to mount a new 
chromatic mirror. Installing the electric was the easy part - finding 
a way to mount the mirror securely has been a challenge. I know what 
doesn't work.
