One of the questions I get asked quite often is…
“How do I remove the broken mirror glass from my sideview mirror?”
It’s a good question, especially if you’ve never done it before, and don’t quite know what to expect. But trust me it’s not that difficult as long as you follow these simple guidelines…
First make sure you have the right tool for the job. You’re going to need something long and flat like a wide flat head screw driver, putty knife or a scraper.

Next, the broken mirror glass is much easier to remove if you loosen the adhesive first. This can be done quite easily by applying a little heat. If you have a propane torch you can use that, however a heat gun or hairdryer will also work nicely.

Make sure to put on the appropriate protetctive eyewear and gloves and start heating the mirror slowly, you’ll notice the adhesive behind the mirror will loosen. Slide the screwdriver, putty knife, or the scraper under the mirror and pull all the broken pieces from the backing plate. Once all of the broken glass is removed from the side view mirror backing plate you’re going to want to clean the backing plate thoroughly with some isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol before installing the new replacement sideview mirror glass. You’re now ready to apply the new replacement sideview mirror glass!
And that’s that! Couldn’t be easier right???

Does the man in van hire for home/student removals, also give
you a ride to your destination in the UK? It all depends how many men they have in the van and whether or not they have room.
If they only have 2 seats up front and there are two men moving you,
then you have to get your own ride Last time I moved
across town, there were 2 of them in the van so I had to take a bus
to the new place as they didn’t have… show more
Depends on the man in the van.

Not necessarily sure what to contact this – Unexplained Spiritual Experience maybe?
Sounds like a kind of automatic writing to me, where your subconscious
will be able to communicate with spirits without you realising it.
There are various ways to talk to spirits if people would just realise what’s
happening, but frequently it is ignored as a random thought and the connection isn’t made….

On my period while going through TSA? In about a week I am going
to be flying up north to see my cousin, but there is a very
likely possibility that I am going to be on my period, so my
question is can a full body scan pick up a pad?
And can the scanner your stuff goes into pick up the extra pads that I would
most likely need to pack? And lastly do you…
show more Virtually every female between 15 and 60 menstruates and
most of them use pads or tampons even when they fly. The TSA personnel have seen it all thousands
and thousands of times. They’re looking for things that can blow up or harm an airplane or people.
If your pads can’t do that, they couldn’t care less about them.

Can you guess what year this photo was taken? 1970′s March 16, 1521.
Couldn’t be that old. Cheap clip-on hair extensions that are totally different in color
from your natural hair came out in the 2000′s? Home kitchen faucets weren’t that high up
to the 90′s. This photo can pass as being taken with film but then again, it can also be digital.
Either way, it’s a bad photo of some willing subject who’s doing a good job
cleaning BTW. I’m guessing anytime between 2000 to yesterday.
