this is a noob question but i dunno if im looking at it wrong but is the only way i can take the whole rear view mirror off is by peeling it off the window and having to re-glue it?

on a few cars my parents had all you had to do is it just slide it off.

 

should be a set screw on the base of the mirror, its up there toward the front of the car were u cant see it to well. losen it and it should slide off.

 

actually, there's a clip that you have to remove, then it should just slide off. getting the clip off is kind of a pain though.

 

ok so theres one more thing that is different on the 93. i stand corrected.

 

ok i thought it was that clip but your right it is a pain. i tried with a flat head screw driver but now ill try a razor or anything else i can find

 

Smack that *****..lol thats how i got mine off but do NOT take that clip off thereplacement..i took for real over an hour to get it back on..it should jst pop/slide off..it takes a fair amount of force though..

 

mine has a little metal piece glued to the windshield that the mirror slides on. im sure thats how they all are

 

Thats what i was trying to say lol..but its really effin tight so it doesnt slide so well..at least not for me anyways lol

 

So hit the back of the piece till it slides off? I am not replacing it I'm putting LED's in it

 

I would think there would be a way to simply remove the plastic lenses (for lack of better term) so you can access the bulbs. It would save you a lot of trouble trying to remove the entire mirror. If you're not replacing it, I would recommend removing it only as a last resort. Otherwise it's more trouble than it's worth.
