One thing I found on an astronomy site that was selling VHB is that  
they say you can use fishing line to "saw" through the adhesive and  
remove the tape, and then use goo-be-gone or similar anti-gunk  
remover (I've seen it at hardware stores) to get the glue off the  
windshield and plexi.  I haven't tried this, though.  But if the  
button falls off again, I might give it a shot.
