Hi does anyone know how you remove the glass from the door mirrors without breaking it?
My passenger one wobbles about so I want to get behind to see whats loose.

Hi Dan,
Use a hair drier to heat the glass, this will soften the adhesive gum that holds the glass on.

Oh blimey, I thought there must be a way of uncliping the whole thing rather than ungluing it :roll:
nope - it's glue
if it's original glue, you should be able to just pry it off wiht your fingers.
when i came to remove my mirrors, it was really easy. if they're on properly or have been re-glued, then yeah, hair dryer.
Oh joy! :roll:
Any idea what could be loose or worn inside to make it flop about?
page 17 of this install guide:

shows two strut things that attach two sides to the rear of the housing. it's possible that one of these struts has come loose. I take it you don't have full control over the mirror. does it tend to twitch when you move it so far?
