Instructions:

1. Prepare the windshield. Clean the area around the rear view mirror button with a cotton swab and isopropyl alcohol to remove any dirt or debris.

2. Heat the adhesive. Use a heat gun or a hair dryer to heat the adhesive around the rear view mirror button. Heat it for about 30 seconds to soften the adhesive.
