if you can get af knife or something else under it, to lift it up a littlebit, then it's easier to get your finger under, when you have your fingers under it pull gently!!! i broke one of mine the first time i had the off!!!

What you should do is this: You rotate the mirror-glass (pull at the outer part, push at the inner part) carefully, when the glass is out, you see two little plastic clips that hold the upper cap. With a small screw driver you can get them open ....

I just wedged a screw driver under mine :lol:

I got 2 spare from Citroen though and painted them so it didn't matter if I broke the others off :)

They were £2.19 each IIRC.

just put screw driver under and slide it along till its all unclipped then it should hook off. the passenger 1 it easiest 1 to take off, mine had clips in different places on each side for some reason :S

this sounds like the safest it terms of not breaking any clips
