| Wing mirror glass keeps dropping out |
|
Driving through Mayfair today, hit a pot hole and my passenger wing mirror glass fell out  It was left dangling by the wires.
I clipped it back in and it did it again 2 mins later, its done it 3 times now no matter how hard i push it back. Anyone know of a 'knack" to this I'm pushing it as hard as I dare.

do any of the clips look broken?
could always pop the mirror housing cap off to look behind to see if your pushing it home enough? XC90 T8 R Design Pro

You have to hold the mirror at a slight angle when pushing to click it home. Nearside down slightly I think.

Mine came off a while back and I put it on a few times and it kept falling off again. In the end I had to apply far more force than I thought the mirror would withstand to click it back into position. I put on leather gloves as I was sure the mirror would shatter
