Really?  Sophy, my '66 Square, has a pop in style mirror and it was 
chrome when I got her from Jim Adney.  It isn't right now since I broke 
the shaft on her original mirror trying to get it out of the car.

For Mike -  The mirror has spring clip that snaps in.  The two studs 
just keep it positioned and prevent rotation when you adjust it.  Just 
grab onto the mirror as close to the roof as possible and give it a 
good yank straight back and slightly down.  It should just pop out.
