Decided to hardwire my radar to the mirror and seem to have trouble getting the rain sensor back into the spot its suppose to go. I have no idea how the sensors are supposed to connect to the mirror itself. The most I can get installed makes it droop down since I believe it is not fully installed. Any help would be appreciated.

You removed the whole thing? I didnt have to. I had a pin tap that you'd just insert into the connector.

I did the pin tapping thing too, but when I took apart the plastic the whole thing came off. I think the glue didn't really stick well when I had my windshield fixed so I've concluded that it just needs to be reglued.

Windshield Glue.
What glue we thinking since its plastic instead of metal. If I can do it myself then that would be better than going to a glass & auto repair shop

Ya so the mount came off. It should not have done that. Time to revisit the glass shop.

the mount should still be attached here. If you do need to take the mirror off, I can be removed by just moving it vertically off the mount.

We are living in the past! Its determined that it shouldnt have come off and came off due to the glue not sticking. I did not pull down all I did was pop open the middle of two plastics and boom! The whole thing fell down and I was sad
