Side Rear View Mirror?

[firefox]

Does anyone know the trick to removing the glass
without breaking things?
Thanks!

I'm not sure how to remove it but I had a mirror fall off and by a miracle it did not break. It was held on by a clear silicone adhesive. You may be able to pry gently with a non marring tool while heating the face of the mirror with a heat gun.

New glass should be $10 or less at the auto parts store. I'd just break and replace them.

Agreed, Dad used to have me just break the old glass out, and glue a new one in using windshield sealer.

I remove them GM mirrors from the stainless steel mirror heads with a propane torch and the glass falls off. Be gentle and don't over heat. Good Luck. I even used the ones that said objects are closer then they appear. Why because I had them. Not sure if they still do that. If they do I am so used to seeing and using them I don't even notice.

Just to make sure I understand, we are talking about the mirrors that are mounted to the side of the doors and not the one that is glued to the middle of the windshield, right?

Yes you can buy the glass off the shelf at advanced.
