Inside Rearview Mirror Bracket Installation: Notes

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 Chevrolet Aveo. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The inside rearview mirror is attached to a support which is secured to the windshield glass. The support is installed by the glass supplier using a plastic-polyvinyl butyl adhesive.

Service replacement windshield glass has the mirror support bonded to the glass assembly. In order to install a detached mirror support or install a new part, the following items will be needed:

LOCTITE® Minute-Bond Adhesive
Original or replacement mirror support
Wax marking pencil or crayon
Rubbing alcohol
Clean paper towel
Fine grit sandpaper, grit #320 or #360
2 mm Allen wrench
