I would like to replace the mirror glass in the interior rear-vision mirror, mounted from the front cant rail.
Any advise on how to remove/replace the glass in the internal rear-vision mirror? How do you get the old glass out?
Is it glued in from behind; do you just break it; or are the edges rolled over to hold it in position?
All comments are welcomed!

I replaced the glass in my moke mirror.

You can smash it out, it doesn't really matter as it is getting replaced and it is difficult to remove without breaking it (mine broke trying to remove with a stanley knife)

It is just glues around the edges.

I cleaned all the gunk off and then used some sikaflex around the edges and inserted glass in and cleaned all the excess off and let it set. Been strong ever since and it vibrates a lot on a moke screen
