Door mirror glass just dropped out

Silicone will act as an insulant between the glass and the heating element.

Nope works as quick as the other side, it is only a thin layer to adhere it to the backing plate. As long as you don't go silly with it you will have no issues.

Mine fell out today and smashed, drivers side.  New one ordered from autodoc, link here, hopefully it fits:

Well my near side mirror looked like it was rubbing the housing when it dipped on reverse and sure enough that had come unstuck from the element as well. Not sure how it didn't fall out when driving to work but yet again silicone saved the day and it is back in position.

I'll let you know how I get on when mine turns up.

Lost both of mine weirdly in the same spot but a year apart. Anyhoo, did'nt mess about and went straight to the dealer.

What did they replace and would you have the part numbers.  Still waiting on my autodoc order to arrive, the VW dealers I rang just had an ansa phone kick in.
