This weekend, I bumped my rearview mirror while cleaning the windshield and the mirror popped right off. This isn't the first time (one drawback to owning the car since 1988, some "only once" repairs are coming around again).

I'd rather switch over to a mirror that comes off of the center visor mount, I believe that Dr Evil and JWest have offered options over the last decade.

Is anyone out there providing bolt-on solutions these days? Are there very clear instructions (including specific donor info) for someone to make their own?

Thanks in advance for any leads on this.

Ya, I have one with two aimable dome lights on the bottom (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) It is sweet! I am glad that someone else has taken up making and selling these for an appropriate price. They look great and I love the function. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumb3d.gif)

'02 Crysler Sebring Convertable has a nice one. Two lights right and left or both with the door open and it has the auto dark feature for night. Nice mirror.
