Check Lowe's or Home Depot, or any other proper hardware store. If all else fails, check Amazon.

I am looking for oval mirror clips. Walmart only has square ones. Anyone find oval? Where? Thanks

I too experienced this issue on my 180. A quick trip to the hardware store for some screw in "mirror clips" resolved the issue. You can leave the adhesive strips on the back and place the mirror clips around the perimeter (I used 3, one at the top at 12 o'clock and two at the bottom in the 4 o'clock & 8 o'clock positions). Mine has been fine ever since.

I got a round 10" mirror from Amazon, and we used 3M strips to adhere it to the wall directly above the switch board in our 177.  We used several strips, and it never budged in over 5k miles.

I have a 2016 180 with the separate shower and bathroom in the back (purchased in early June).  I had it out this weekend for its 7th trip.  I arrived at the campground to find my oval mirror over the sink had crashed to the floor and shattered.  This really stinks.  I'm wondering if my warranty will cover this?

Yes, because these are not as thick.

Thanks. Did you take all of the strips off that came on it before putting on the new ones?

I couldn't find these moisture resistant Command strips locally, but I did find indoor/outdoor strips from the folks at LocTite. So far, so good. Got it at Wal-Mart in the paint section.

If you go with the strips, be sure to clean the surfaces thoroughly. The Command instructions specify to use isopropyl alcohol and not household cleaners to do so. Isopropyl alcohol won't leave residues that can reduce adhesion.
