Er, no, not really - failing to come off is the exact opposite of the usual problem! Seriously, I've never had to take one off.

I'd imagine the best bet would be to book a life-changing, once in a lifetime trip in a country that gets very picky about missing mirrors...... ;-0

Hammer. Big one.

Alternatively, tie it to a tree, when you get back from the shops it'll have miraculously come off!

Alternatively, you'll have acquired a new aftermarket accessory that magically follows your car everywhere you go, leaving clods of mud behind :o)

The tree?

Richard

You can claim that it's there to absorb the emissions from your exhaust, making the car carbon neutral!

How's that for a tree-hugger idea then? Drive around with a trailer full of watercress ;-)

I'm off to the patent office.

Manchester Spanner, we used to call them.

Simon Isaacs uttered summat worrerz funny about:

For performing percussive maintenance, a concept that frightened the crap out of me when I discovered it was an approved method of repairing aircraft.

Electrician's screwdriver.

Stuart

Heh, then I expect the window slider channels are full of moss too!

Is there anything which cannot be maintained in this fashion?
