Default Rearview Mirror Adhesive

I went to adjust the rear view mirror on the truck and it popped off the windshield into my hand. Who makes the best adhesive to put it back on.

I use the permatex brand.. Follow the directions and it seems to work great.. I usually pit on a little more of the adhesive than they say. They say only a drop.. I usually put 3..

had the same problem on my '91 nite edition. used the permatex and worked fine. had to customize directions though. instead of puttin activator on window after i put the glue on the button i just put a small drop on the button right over the glue. if tring to do in the cold prepare for a sore thumb.it took 'bout 5 minutes for my button to stay up on its own. duck tape should also work. hell it works on everything else!
