I did not know that, thanks. Could have saved £3 on the mirror glass  :doh:

One has been gorrilla glued back and is ok, and then I had an older replacement on the drivers side

I didn't get a chance to glue mine back on; one minute it was there next it was gone!  :surprised:

Happened to me as well.  But rather than just falling off onto the road like a good boy, it bounced down the side of my car chipping the sh1t out of my paint on the door  :doh:

Anyway, turned out the previous owner had fitted some cheap arse piece of crap that self adhered to the mount.  I replaced it with a genuine glass that clips in properly and has been aces of basses ever since  :happy2:
