Seems like we just discussed this -
The old glass will come out using a wooden stick to pry it out - like a
paint stir stick. The mirror is held in by a ball & socket arrangement. If
you get the replacement mirror it will be obvious how the old comes out and
the new goes in.
Check with Rusty at http://www.buymbparts.com/ for the replacement mirror -
IIRC they're not very expensive and you'll be getting a new one as opposed
to a used one that may have damaged also.

Subject: [MBZ] mirror glass removal
The glass is broken on the driver side mirror on my 82 240D (123 body
style). I have been told that I can replace the glass mirror without
removing the mirror housing. Is this true? Has anyone actually done this
who can tell me how to remove the broken glass mirror and replace it with
one removed from another mirror housing ?
Thanks in advance
Jerry
