Is this the stock rearview mirror mount?

Is this the correct way to attach it? It is only held on by that plastic piece, its so loose.

No, there should be a metal piece that comes out of the mirror and crosses behind the plastic bit, it appears the one on your mirror broke off. I'd suggest you go to a junkyard and buy another mirror, they typically run about $10.

In the first picture there is a metal plate behind the plastic piece, is this what you're talking about?

That it is. I've got a broken mirror laying around somewhere, if I find it I'll post a picture of how the mounting hardware should look.
