How to remove the mirror from an external mirror on a BMW 5 Series. Use a plastic or rubber trim tool: pry between the edge of the mirror frame and the mirror glass.

Pry until the plastic parts detach from the mirror (disconnect the heating wire). Unscrew the screws with a screwdriver to remove the mirror cover (if you need to replace it), and replace the damaged part with a new one. Be careful to engage the plastic clips into the mirror supports.
