Help do I need to replace this ?

[Badman]

Hi Guys,

Someone just knocked my mirror. There doesn't look like theres any breaks. I tried to just push it back on but no joy. Didn't want to use too much force in case i snapped it. Do i need to take off the whole thing and re-fit?

thanks

You can probably push that back in. It does need quite a bit of force - rember it is designed to come out when hit by another car so you need to "roll" it back in, opposite to how it came out.

I put mine back on the floor straight on with my bodyweight but I would avoid removing the triangle if you don't have to as that should be a lot more work.

The springs are flat square metal so quite strong but even pressure should get it back in.

You can see the springs & clips in this picture

It pops back in very easily although it needs some force.
