Here is the step-by-step process to help you reattach it safely and correctly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Step 1: <\/strong>Park the car on a flat surface, preferably in a shaded area. The windshield should be cool to the touch, as excessive heat can affect adhesive performance.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Step 2<\/strong>: Use a razor blade or scraper to carefully remove any old glue residue from the windshield and the metal mounting button on the mirror.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Step 3<\/strong>: Wipe both the windshield and the mounting button with isopropyl alcohol. This removes grease, dust and moisture.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Step 4<\/strong>: On the outside of the windshield, place a small piece of masking tape to mark the original mirror position. This ensures proper alignment when reattaching.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Step 5<\/strong>: Follow the instructions provided with your rearview mirror adhesive kit. Also, use masking tape to keep the button steady if needed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Step 6: <\/strong>Make sure you give a proper time after applying the adhesive<strong>.\u00a0 <\/strong>Most mirror adhesives require 30 minutes for initial setting and up to 24 hours for complete bonding.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Step 7: <\/strong>Once the adhesive has fully hardened, slide or clip the mirror back onto the mounting button. Tighten any screws if required and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubizzle.com\/blog\/cars\/adjust-car-mirrors\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">adjust the car mirror<\/a> for optimal rear
