Default Apr mirror question

for anybody with a set of apr mirrors, how did you guys mount the actual glass to the mirror itself? I wanted to use 3m double sided adhesive but did not know how it would hold up with the rain, I have been using permatex black plastic welder. My problem is it holds fine but after a while im guessing with the vibration of my motor mounts it weakens over time and the glass falls off the mirror. Im on my second glass for the driver side. I really dont want to get rid of them because i do like the mirrors but If i have to keep buying glass every other month because it keeps falling off the mirror id rather just get rid of them. Any help is appreciated

i have a set on my ek. I like them so far..although my passenger side seems to move a lot but i'm thinking its people hitting it walking by in parking lots.. Also after about a yr on i've noticed some fade in the clear on top but then again i live in florida with out a garage so its to be some what expected. all in all i don't regret getting them

Old thread, but you could buy a replacement housing with the glass and mount it to your bases. My s2000 has apr mirrors and had 85a (IIRC) mounts and never had an issue.
