Hi,
I am trying to get the mirror off my Sport that I am breaking. Is it clipped or bonded onto the small metal panel on the roof. I tried a flat screwdriver to ease it off but seems stuck. Don't want to break it. Thanks.

Simply unlips with a firm-ish tug.

hi there,

what you do is, yank it side to side, there is a pin which is on a metal spring,
wriggle the thing side to side and it should release it, requires a fair amount of force. dont worry..

cheers
anton
