Hello how do I dismantle a TF Gemini side mirror without breakage. I need to remove the glass and the swivel mechanism and put it into a different surround. Cheers

i believe that they are fitted with a one way locking clip. you can't undo it, they were never made to be repaired.

Cheers anyway but I found you tilt mirror all the way up and theres one screw behind it at the bottom to remove glass and swivel piece in one go. Same swivel and glass for both left and right hand.
