Noda single idea!!! OK my first thought is to pop the old mirror off the stem/ball
to leave stem intact on windshield and pop stem out of replacement mirror
then pop replacement mirror back onto the stem glued to window. Not sure it's possible
without breaking the ball socket in mirror or if it has enough flexibility.
Otherwise I have no option but to remove the adhesive blob from windshield
which I hear is a major undertaking and once removed the new adhesion
will have constant loosing/falling off problems. Would love if someone has done
it the right/best way to accomplish the swap and share the process.....any HELP appreciated.

OK...definitely not the method to use on a 90 degree day.
My new mirror is going to look GREAT now on my new
windshield!!!!!!
