### Installation Procedure

The inside rearview mirror (automatic memory) attaches to a support which is secured to the windshield. The window supplier uses a plastic poly-vinyl butyl adhesive to install this support.

The service replacement windshield has the mirror support bonded to the window. The following items are needed to install a detached mirror support or to install a new part:

• | Loctite Minute-Bond® Adhesive Kit GM P/N 1052369, Loctite 312® Adhesive Kit, or equivalent

• | Inside rearview mirror support

• | Wax marking pencil or crayon

• | Rubbing alcohol

• | Clean paper towels

• | Fine piece of emery cloth or sandpaper (320 or 360 grit)

1. Measure the following from the outside of the vehicle to determine the mirror support position (2) on the windshield:

1.1. | Measure from the top of the window down 90 mm (3 1/2 in).

1.2. | Measure 698 mm (27 1/2 in) from the pillar to reach the center point of the windshield.

2. Use a wax pencil or use a crayon to mark the mirror support position location on the outside of the windshield.
3. Mark a larger diameter circle (1) around the mirror support area.
4. Use a paper towel and domestic scouring cleanser or polishing compound to clean a large circle on the inside of the windshield surface. Rub until the area is completely clean and completely dry.
5. Use an alcohol dampened paper towel to remove any traces of scouring powder or cleaning solution from the area.
6. Use a piece of fine (320 or 360 grit) emery cloth or sandpaper to sand the bonding surface of the new inside rearview mirror (automatic memory) support or the factory installed support.
7. Remove all traces of the factory installed adhesive if reusing the original inside rearview mirror (automatic memory) prior to reinstallation.
8. Use a clean paper towel dampened with alcohol to wipe the sanded mirror support.
