Door mirror glue.

Yesterday digging around for parts I needed. I found a old set of bullet mirrors. Unfortunately the glass fell out.

What is the recommended glue for these guys?

Let's see pictures of them. I use E6000 for a lot of stuff, but not sure if that would work for mirrors.

Re: Door mirror glue.

I have had good success with permanent 3M VHB (very high bond) tape in many situations. Works very well IMO. Have things attached for years with it and would use in your situation with no hesitation. The clear is not foam and would recommend for you.

Re: Door mirror glue.

The original 60s mirrors I got for the IH were held in with black silicone, I had to remove the glass when I got them rechromed, so I put them back in with the same
