How to reattach the rear-view mirror
Hi all,
I have an Aveo sedan and after I reached across to get something, I clumsily knocked off my rear view mirror. Can anyone explain how to get the plastic front off? I cant slide it off. If I could do that, I think I could reattach the metal ring. I'll post pictures later if it helps.
Thanks

2006 Aveo rearview mirror base disconnect
Hi,
I just figured out how to remove the base from the holder on the window. There is an oval spring that holds the base in with two prongs at the top behind the metal ring. I used an allen wrench to move one side in while I slid the base out of the holder half way, then used it on the other side to get it the rest of the way off. A pair of needle nose pliers may work. Note, the screw that fits at the base of the mirror is very tight, but once I got it loosened, I was able to re-attach the mirror to the base, and the whole thing just slid back into place.Attachment 9618
