Rear View Mirror Glass.

Well I've been looking and cannot find out how to get the glass out of our side mirrors W/out breaking them out. I imagine that all the mechanism and what-not go into the frame and housing, the glass is "Glued" in? Looked in another thread and all that was there was flirting. Thanks.

The glass is glued in. I had the glass fall out on my 91, grabbed it before it hit the ground and then dropped it. The replacement from Mopar said to glue it on with rtv adhesive. Of coarse the glass was mispackaged, but I found a cheaper replacement in the Help! section of a local auto part store.

I did epoxy with my new glass as Tugboat kept slamming the durn door, the glass dropped out on him one day... ... ... ... ... ... .



Expoy held untill it got cold. Then I wents to the local Wal-Mart and gots me sum cold weather sticky tape, two sided stuff. Been in there for some time now and all is well with the world

So can you replace the glass from a nonelectric mirror to an electric one? I got 1L & 1R non in perfect shape and am considering bolting them on and just doing without adjustability from the EZ chair. But if I can get the glass out and replace the cracked ones then... .

The glass on the electric mirrors is slightly smaller. It may work using the manual mirror glass, but using the smaller glass on the manual mirrors looks terrible IMHO.

The mirror head is different shape. Some parts may interchange but from the looks of the two side by side the are different.
