The mounts are completely different. The stock mirror attaches to the windshield header and is held in place by a screw:
To mount a mirror on the windshield you need a windshield mount that glues to the windshield. The mirror then slides onto the mount.
You will need a new mirror with a windshield mount to do this.

Not impossible but definitely not just a 'stick on' in mine so figure that in too. If you do it, I'd like to see how you accomplished it.

I did it in my '89. I used a C5 mirror I got off ebay. I mounted the metal mounting piece to the windshield using stuff from an auto parts store. The C5 mirror slid right on. I spliced the wire that went to the C4 mirror so it would reach the C5 mirror which also had reading lights.
I like it much better. It's out of my face when I drive!
