Well, crap.
I figured I'd give mirror adhesive a try, hoping to get lucky.
Well, after the third try (but each time I could identify things to try to help) it looked like it was going to work. Except when I was closing the window, the stupid thing shattered!
On the other side, I was totally unsuccessful in getting it to stick.
So, anyone have a pair off a parts car they'd like to sell? I'm not sure if I have a preference between vent windows, or stationary ones.
