Hello!

Can you please advise what glue to use to stick on my rear mirror?
Is there any special two side tape which strong enough for it?

Thanks
 
My mirror fell off - my dealership got it sorted through a windscreen company, who used special bonding stuff. Seems to work, hasn't come off since....

I did try double sided tape, lol - never again.
 
You can buy mirror pads at all good car parts places (halfords) about £1.00 each.
Make sure both surfaces are clean (white spirit) before applying.
If fitting on a cold day lightly warm up the areas to be bonded first.

on an old car i had i used araldite and theres no way that was coming off.

Do a proper job, eh Custard? :D

The mirror pads are the best bet, unless you have Araldite lying around ;)
 
I used tape on mine originally, but because the Abarth mirror is a right beast [rain sensors, light sensors, wires, trim around it, etc] all this did was push the trim away from the windscreen so it wasn't flush and rattled like anything....
