Hi everyone, I have a problem with the bathroom mirror. On his last trip he decided to become a dancer and move away from his homes. My Triton is from 2003 and does not have a sliding mirror. To secure it, three clips must be used at the bottom and three at the top. The seat of the upper clips is wider and is used to insert the mirror and then let it lower into the ones below. The point is that the movements and bumps make the mirror "dance" and come out of its place. By pure luck it didn't break (and I wouldn't want the 7 years of bad luck to come my way) and I want to find a solution. Have any of you already had this problem? and how did you solve it? Thank you.

he photos are these (not mine but the assembly is the same). He used shims.

mirror to leap out in motion to jollys am trying to remember if adjusted the top lights to hold mirror better, think thats what did.
had thought of hook and loop tape / or command strips however that could peel the silver off mirror

could use something like this https://www.amazon.co.uk/Fixings-Bathroo...32&sr=8-20&th=1

We removed ours altogether fearing a similar outcome as the mirror was already slightly chipped along the bottom edge and had jumped out of the lower slots a couple of times.
This involved taking off the moulded light fitting amd repalcing with a new LED strip attached to the underside of the small shelf
We attached a stick on acrylic mirror and also found an IKEA metal shelf that just fits above the top of the lower moulded section
I'll try and get a pic up next time we get the van out.

That sounds good. Ours is quite manky so a replacement might be a nice idea.

if put a mirror in a wide picture frame, can add some hinges magnets and a travel catch and make a shelf unit its like hidden storage.

alternatively if struggle with lap joints, buy a bathroom cabinet, they are expensive hence why made own in home.

Excellent idea, I'll wait for the photos with curiosity. But what is the acrylic mirror like?

same here, mirror fell out but did not break, put it back in position and used a length of white beading down each side , two small screws in each length, job done been thee years now and no further problems.

After several attempts, with shims, I found "my" solution. In a DIY shop I bought an acrylic mirror which surprised me with the quality of the reflection, very similar to glass. I cut it (with an iron blade) to size, obtaining two pieces. To fix them I had thought of using adhesive, but, given the presence of structural screws, I opted for fixing with screws. This solution seemed much less invasive to me and will allow me to access the original screws without difficulty. The new mirror is smaller in height than the original and has a vertical junction line, but it will perform its function splendidly... in particular I will not run the risk of seven years of bad luck.
I didn't take photos, sorry, but I will.

Here is the mirror mounted
