Default Re: Inside Rearview Mirror

Sorry, I didn't take any pictures. Just carefully read all the posts. The "arm" that the mirror is attached to, twists onto a "socket" that's attached to the windshield. So...take a shaft, that will fit into the hole at the bottom of that "arm", ( i used a long allen key) and turn the whole mirror assembly 90 degrees and the assembly will pop off the windshield. I turned mine to the right, and you will have to turn the mirror as you do this since it will hang up on the roof. I assume you could turn it to the left as well. Then when the mirror is off, you will see inside the "arm" there is a metal clip, held in with a Torx screw. I didn't take the clip out. I simply gently bent the 2 metal tabs down a bit with a pair of pliers. Then, hold the mirror firmly and flush over the "socket" on the windshield at the 90 (sideways angle) and then with your shaft, twist it back on. Very simple and effective, just take your time and look everything over, before you start. Hope it helps!
