Change the glass mirror of an external rearview mirror

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Side mirror

This nice youtuber. She guides us in changing the mirror glass of the external rearview mirror of a car. We do not know which car it is, but basically the method is the same for all cars. In conclusion, she asks for advice from those who are able to give it, and we feel able to recommend, before removing the mirror glass, to adjust it from the inside to the maximum possible angle, so that it is possible to insert fingers (or a plastic spatula) behind the glass/mirror, and thus facilitate the operation as much as possible. We also consider ourselves able to advise against the final "hammer blow" for fixing the glass, but in general the operation can be considered completed.
