Taking apart the side view mirrors?

[RamRod]

Has anyone taken apart the side view mirrors?:huh:

I see you can purchase the replacement mirror only so I am thinking its do-able.

There are two reasons I am asking and both are for some new DIY mod's that I have been thinking about lately & am going to attempt to do if all things permit... I'll give you guys one of the mods...

It wont help you guys down in the warm south that much....But I am going to add heated mirrors to my current non heated mirror setup!

After some digging I found what I think I need to know on Schwarttzy's site, Pg. 25-26.

Has anyone actually removed the glass? any hints/tips so I don't break it!?

When i swapped my chrome for black, I used a large flat head just below the mirror and pressed up. It just slide in place and clicks.

I wish I had my sliders done! The shop that is supposed to bend up my tubing keeps putting my job off so I am trying to find a new shop to get me bent up!

Ramrod, did you ever add the heated mirrors? I'm stuck right now trying to figure out how to get the wire from the door to the body. I realized after I was almost done that GM is using a plug and socket to connect the wiring harness at the door, rather than the usual hollow rubber boot thing. I realize it was a great thought because it makes taking the doors off super simple, but crud, this bit is annoying.
