Melbourne/AUS. Most likely PP (Polypropylene) and nothing will really glue/ stick well enough to make a screw bite again. Even welding a sliver into the hole somehow (yes, tried that). A marginally longer and/ or thicker screw without tapping (the OEM screws are usually coarse-thread wood-screw type items) will do the trick nicely though.
Oddometer: 1,027. Location: Durango CO back in CO Bama sucked. I installed some heated grips and a another elec outlet on St 1300 monday. I glued the throttle side on per instructions and let it set overnight. I went for a test ride and grips work fine but then the glue cooked and got soft and I lost throttle. I had had to idle home in 1st gear.
Welding it is not really an option, and finding an 8mm helicoil here is almost impossible. I have the hole currently tapped for 9mm bolt. I thought, with a good epoxy, I could drill and tap the hole for a 10mm bolt to give the epoxy sufficient thickness and area to bite in to, then drill the epoxy and tap it for the original 8mm.
Oddometer: 206. use a countersunk head machine screw to mount a stainless washer to the mirror base. Then use double sided foam tape to stick the washer onto the mirror. The point of the washer is to give more surface for adhesion. You can use fender washers for more area if you need it.
My favorite is WEST SYSTEM Epoxy, using the Wood Epoxy Saturation Technique with thickened epoxy using their 404 thickening powder. I've used it on boats, and furniture using a variety of woods including pine, mahogany, oak, cherry, fir, ash, and others. It's great stuff. #13.

They also have a smaller tube, might be 38115, but its called panel bond and is used to glue the metal panels on cars together. 100% guaranteed if you have the surfaces clean. Takes 8 hours to fully cure.
I think that is what was used originally. I'm a plumber and we use it to glue vinyl shower pan liners. Carpenters use it to glue down Formica counter tops (remember them). Staples has a 4oz jar. You brush it on both sides and let it dry until it is tacky and then press the pad onto the tank.
My rugged oukitel has a rubber shell, so I have to find the best epoxy to glue quadlock universal adaptor, because they wrote me "As a guide, the 3M™ VHB adhesive on the adaptor will adhere to most smooth, flat (slightly curved is ok), non-textured, non-porous surfaces such as hard plastic and metal.
Use a small acid brush to apply or distribute the glue that you can throw away after. Fumes a bit rich from this stuff, but it does work well. From the advertisement: Barge All Purpose Cement is ready to use on rubber, wood, leather, glass, cork, metal and more.
