Windshield mirror mount removal?
Have any of you ever purposefully removed the rear view mirror mount from
your windshield? I've had them fall off other cars, but I can't seem to get it off of my '04 TJ. I'm thinking a solvent of some sort. Any ideas or advice? -- |

You mean to pop the epoxy glued base off without possibly breaking the
