Splitting apart the wing mirrors

Recommended Posts

I have a spare set of wing mirrors that I want to spray. I have split most of them apart including the black plastic surround. But how do I split apart the main plastic cover from the oval base part that mounts against the body? This is the part that swivels. Do I literally just have to use brute force to pry them apart or is something holding them together?

I was worried about damaging mine putting them back together after respraying, so i left them together.

i removed the 4 screws holding the mirror surround to the metal part of the mirror.

I then turned the base to 90degrees so there was minimal contact areas between the mirror and base.
