Geez, Chuck! That sounds VIOLENT!! I'll take a look when the new mirror
arrives - it's from Rusty so it'll probably be here *really* quickly!

Larry,
I recently replaced the interior mirror on my "new" 190E 2.3 16V.......
1. Hold securely as close to the top of the "mirror post" as
possible and JERK IT OUT down and to the rear.
2. Place one side of the new mirror, preferably the left side
sitting in the car, into the slot.... Getting one end of the spring
loaded "whatsits" into the "receiver"..... I then placed the bottom
of a moderate sized hammer handle up next to the "post" and hit as
hard as I could w/the palm of my hand trying to deliver the force of
the blow up and to the left. It worked.......
And I didn't break anything.......
Hope this helps....

I ordered a new inside rear
view mirror and now I'm wondering how to get the old one off? Does
it just
pop out of the ball socket swivel joint? And then pop the new one
in? The
old one is damaged - the plastic frams is broken with the night/day
switch
missing.
