Recently tried to re-work a loose rearview mirror on my MIL's Forrester. This thing had been hit or pulled-off before and a different family member tried to fix it. I THINK there is a plate stripped out in the mount adhered to the windshield. Looks like it could slide or pop out for replacement. Opposed forces may not have a diagram for this but I admit I just may not understand what top-tier heading it would be under.
kinda like to have the part number for that plate and also the 2 screws that go into it. I suspect it is built to disengage easily in an impact. I managed to get it re-mounted with some aluminum foil wrapped around the screw's threads and some tread locker - but it felt like only one screw is 'biting' so - I want to be prepared to do it correctly.
any help with links to diagrams/part numbers appreciated.
