Replacing my rear-view mirror

I knocked my rear-view mirror off. The little metal piece has already been put on but I was told to wait 24 hours to actually pit the mirror on it. The guy left a tool to do it with but i don't remember what exactly he told me to do...

Is this an internal or external mirror?

Once the metal piece is attached and the adhesive has cured, then take your mirror and look at the base that attaches to that metal piece. There is a set screw. That's likely what the tool he left for it is for. There may be a plastic cover covering it. Open it up to access this screw. Then go ahead and loosen the screw (don't take it out! Is a pain to put back in with mirror in place!) Then take the mirror and slide the base down onto the metal anchor from the top. Make sure it's on all the way, tighten the screw, put the plastic cover on, and you're good to go
