I called MB on another item and asked out of curiosity how much a mirror was. The one in the car is adjustable left & right, up & down from a switch on the console. The dim feature is via a standard lever that tilts the glass.

Comes as a unit - electronics, mechanics and all - for a '92 - $1070.00

EEEK

I'm sure I can find an adhesive that's not temperature sensative - I just don't want to mess up the silvering on the mirror.

Unless the hot glue suggested in a previous post is solid up to 130+ degrees F - it won't make it 15 minutes at 1PM here in Houston in August. That's why the spray contact adhesive didn't hold.

I need some sort of adhesive that's thin so the paper adheres evenly. I'm thinking a low-foam polyurathane glue - although that stuff only cures in the presence of moisture and I'm not crazy about exposing the silver to moisture of any sort.

Hot glue sticks come in a variety of applications -- each has a different melting point. The Super Glue is the highest temp application that Sears sells.
It's somewhere in the high 200 or low 300 degree range if I remember correctly.

I would use silicone rubber. Bonds well to glass and paper.
