Does anyone know the method for removing our mirror glass? if it is heated with a blowdryer will that allow us to remove it? or am i going to need to shatter and replace the glass?
Thanks

I've tried to swap the mirrors out of a housing before, to make a cheaper non-heated mirror heated. My drivers side got hit, broke off, but glass was fine, so I bought a non-heated mirror, popped the glass out and fed my wiring in and popped my glass in. I must have done it wrong, because it was loose and bounced around. Thing is I couldn't see how to do it right, and I am very mechanically inclined.

Just the glass part of the mirror, or the whole mirror plate and mounting parts? I pulled the whole mirror assembly out of the housing, yes, pulled and it popped out.
