Title: rear view mirror went pop!
Post by Butterfingers on Nov 1st, 2006, 8:07pm
Driving along on the way home this evening and the rear view mirror went POP! with a pop sound. Then all the liquid started to move around. It was quite an event. My son enjoyed watching the liquid move about.
Well that the second one gone. WHat a load of nutse, these things are. So off to buy another one!

Does anyone actually know what causes them to fail or is it simply just pot luck ???
