Yesterday my girlfriend called me to say the internal rear view mirror had parted company with the windscreen on her Citroen C3.
Simple enough, I thought. It's happened plenty of times before on other cars I've used in the past, so I nipped to the motor factors and got a new double-sided sticky pad to reattach it.
When I got back though and looked at the car, it appears that this isn't due to the usual failure of the sticky pad. The mirror has come away and taken a chunk of the windscreen glass with it - approx 2cm x
1cm, and approx 3mm deep, leaving a considerable indent in the glass.I've rigged up a suction cup-based temporary replacement for the moment, but what can I do about the damaged windscreen? I'm tempted to try to superglue the mirror back on, but I'm slightly concerned about the windscreen's integrity now. Does this mean an entirely new windscreen?
