Question How to Remove Mirror Scalps?

G'day!

Got a mate who's trying to remove his ext. mirror scalps on a AUII wagon to spray paint them Winter White. He's worried about breaking the clips and all by forcing it.

Anybody got some tips on how to remove them?

He's got some he's going to touch up and send to me as well so I'd also like to know the best way to gettem off.

Thanks everyone! Would like some tips soon!


Chris

Edit: wasn't totally sure where the best place to post this was, so I'm going to post in another section too. If there's any problem with that let me know, thanks!

push the mirror bit in all the way to the side so you can access the inside of the mirror housing. there are clips where the scalp sits in place (you will see them once you push the mirror back) get a flat head screw driver and just pop them out. really simply job.

cheers.
