My 240 is a Florida car, now in Ohio. So, it was baked in the florida sun for 18 years of it's 20 year life. The car has 0 rust, but the sun has taken it's toll. We are experiencing a Florida like summer here in Ohio, with temps in the high 90's for the last 2-3 weeks, the mirror glass came un-glued. I was pulling the car out of my driveway the other day, and heard something hit the blacktop. It was the glass for the drivers mirror. Amazingly, the glass didn't break.

Can I just use RTV to re-glue it back to it's base, or is there some special glue that I have to use?
