Hi all, awoke this morning and took my car cover off to find my drivers wing mirror hanging. It has been parked in the driveway so I do not think it was hit with a lot of force. I suspect someone leaned up against it. It does not look broken but I can see three pins which should slot into the holes but i cannot get them in. Am working half day today so will try to sort out this afternoon, as I am desperate to use the car tonight i would appreciate any advice that will save me from struggling with it for hours in the cold. Thanks.

Deep I can out to my car one day to fine the mirror also hanging off in the staff car park (Sports mirror) Like you say it has three pins which seem to go into slotted holes so for me it was a strong tap with the palm of the hand and hey presto back in place. Well thats what worked for me anyway 2 years ago. Good luck

It requires a lot more force than you would expect to pop the mirror back in.
Try a dab of grease on the pegs. This won't make a difference to the tight spring bars, but will reduce "stiction".
Also, just pushing hard rarely works, a sharp knock is needed - just be careful where you hit and with what.
