ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a rear view mirror assembly which facilitates installation of components of the rear view mirror assembly on a windshield of a vehicle. The rear view mirror assembly includes a first base member and a unit. The first unit includes a second base member, a spring, a mounting member, a second ball member, a bolt and a support arm on which a rear view mirror is rotatably mounted. The first base member has a plurality of flanges on which the second base member of the unit is mounted. The first base member is adhered to the windshield by an adhesive. In addition, the first base member is made of rolled stainless steel so that pores do not exist in a contact surface of the first base member. Therefore, air does not exist between the contact surface and the windshield, the air expanding and destroying the adhesive bond when heated by the sun. Further, the first base member preferably has a similar coefficient of expansion as that of the windshield.
