    sorry to bug you, but is this pretty standard in all cars. i don’t know anything about cars but this looks really easy and i think i could do it myself. Do you know if it would be the same in a saturn ion 07???

    Another alternative: Use JB Weld and Tape.
    Step 1: Ensure to put enough JB weld where the part is really broken. Also try to put some JB weld where JB weld can form strong bonds between two broken parts.
    Step 2: To ensure that JB weld fix remains steady for 12 hrs, put the masking tape.

    My mirror has the mirror part busted out of the housing, I don’t believe any thing’s broken, but just popping back the window into the housing doesn’t quite seem to make everything back the way it was, any advice?
