Sticking mirror glass onto heated backing pad

[Scrump]

The door mirror glass for one of my cars has come away from the plastic/rubber backing pad which contains the heating element.
The glass just fell away. The heated backing pad was left clipped into the mirror housing, now unclipped and removed.

What is the best adhesive for resticking the glass to the backing pad?
Was thinking of using evo stick contact adhesive but wondering if this will be okay with the heat and if there is something more suitable?

Evostick impact adhesive can do 65c according to a quick google, so wouldn't mine the heat.

Expect as per te above post a PU adhesive/sealant such as Sika/Tiger etc would be fine too.

Double sided sticky foam pad, of which 3M is the market leader, would also work well I expect.

Very much doubt that foam will conduct much heat from the element

The thing is that poster has only ever posted once in 150 months, could be the holy grail of single posts

You'll be cursing that I found the topic when removing the Sikaflex

I have gone with evo stick contact adhesive.
I will report back if (when) the glass falls off
