Mirrors - New `Break-Away' Design
Break-away
Civic/Prelude Mirrors
The new '92 Preludes and Japan-produced Civics have "break-away" rearview mirrors. If an over-zealous car wash attendant knocks one off while
cleaning the windshield, it's easy to fix.
Retrieve the toothed lock washer and hold spring (probably from the floor of the car), then reassemble the mirror as shown. (If they're lost, the lock
washer, spring, and lock bolt can be ordered separately.) Don't forget that the lock bolt has left hand threads.
