Default Mirrors falling out of sunvisors?

My mirrors are falling out of my sunvisors. I've tried 3M Weatherstrip Adhesive to no avail. Anyone have a fix for this?


Thanks!

Maybe this will help. Note - if it is just the glass, this obviously won't work - this fix is for the entire mirror and housing dropping down.

This is actually a great post because I was just wondering if zip ties would work with my mirrors. When I bought my car, someone had tied a shoe lace around the mirror and visor to hold it on. I had to laugh.

That zip-tie fix works great. Worked for me.

Well, the zip tie deal worked on the hinge side, but the bottom is still loose as hell.

I had the same problem with mine. I tried everything and it either failed or rattled and squeaked. The only real fix is to get new visors.

I'm in the same boat except that I've gone through two sets already. Really POS design and materials. I wish there were alternatives but I can't find any.
