Use a razer blade and clean the glass off. Next buy some super glue and then clean the metal plate off and center the metal plate in the windshiled so that you have it where it was or slightly higer or lower to yourt likeing, then being sure you have the metal plate facing the right way put super glue on the center of the metal plate and all around lightly coat the plate leaving 1/4 all around the outter edge to from getting glue on the outside of the windshield. Have some alochol to wipe off any extra that may come ouy when you apply the meter tothe windshield. Be sure to apply the glue evenly and sparingly and a drop in the center of the area where you are going to install the metal plate. Next put the plate on the center of the dot of glue on the windshield and hold it there for two minutes before you let go, after two minutes let it stand for 30 minutes before sliding the mirror onto the plate. you will see a set screw that needs to be loosened before installing the plate. Do a practice run without glue so you are sure that you can adjust the mirror for you and others that might drive the rig. Also be sure when you hit the tab for the night postion that it still works and is able to be adjusted. if the metal plate gets on crooked and you need to remove it and re-place it then use a pair of plyers with a piece of cloth on the plate and twist the plate to remove it from the windshield.
