Got my car back today (yay) and something broke (cry)

Ok as many of you know, my tranny/transfer case busted about 2 weeks ago. I got my car back tonight. I'm cruising along, and my bass was so loud it actually busted my rear view mirror off and it dropped onto my hand. It's cool and not at the same time. Cool because how many people can say they actually busted their rear view mirror off, and uncool cuz now I have to buy a new one.

Re: Got my car back today (yay) and something broke (cry)

it's been 2 weeks since I've driven it, and when I started to drive it again it felt weird. I wasn't used to the power

all in all, I think it drives the same.

You can reglue it. Its easy to do. You first need to take the screo out of the mounting plate and slide the metal piece out. You can get a kit from any auto parts store. You have to glue it and set it. Once its set up put your mirror back on the mounting point. Oh and its not that big a deal. I've knocked my mirror off a few times.
