I was driving along today when my I noticed my passenger mirror(the glass only) was bobbing up and down and was loose. It looked like it was actually about to fall off, so I pulled over right away and was amazed when it literally fell into my hands on my first touch. I just got that side of the car and the mirror repainted after mom kissed the door with her prius and noticed that the glass had to be take out when it was painted as the inside of the mirror was painted as well. I know my body shop will take care of it but it looks like the closed early for the holiday. It looks like it basically just clips in so I am wondering if it is that simple of if there needs to be some kind of additional glue/tape applied?

My drivers side falls out all the time, usually just a good push in and it will snap back into place. Make sure none of the clips are broken beforehand to ensure it won't happen again.

I had the same issue with both my mirrors...I just took a little RTV sealant & put a dab on each clip & a small dab right in the center ...pushed in on carefully, let it set 24 hrs & no more loose mirrors! No wobbles & no more falling out..been holding up very well now.
