Re: [T3] rear view mirror


Just grab the mirror by the stem and pull hard down and towards the back of
the car.  It should pop out with a little effort.  I used late bug window
scrapers and just cut them a little to get them to fit right.  They are much
more easily available and cheap!  After taking out your old one, drill out
the rivets that hold it to the chrome (or on the new piece if you get new
chrome).  Take your old one and make the bug one look just like it and then
use some hammer - type rivets (not pop - rivets) from your local hardware
store to put the new rubber on the chrome.  Works great and mine have lasted
for 6 years and look new!
