Side Mirror Teardown Issues
How do I get this 3rd screw out without breaking the mirror? Need to remove for paint. Have tried angled screwdrivers and straight ones. Can’t get the correct angle. Any suggestions?

Never mind. Another 3rd Gen guy showed me how. So easy.

The mirror pops off. Pop it off very slowly. Go from the side and top corner. Pull gently and it will come out.

The glass comes out with the flat plastic piece it’s attached to.

No tools. Just put fingers under top edge and side and pulled gently. It pops off quite easily. No pics as I boxed everything up already.
