Exclamation Dimming Rear View Mirror Issue...

Kudos to anyone that can help me.... I have had some kind of moisture develop inside the auto-dim rear view mirror over the last couple of days...

Anyways, I bought a new oem autodim mirror, but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get the da** thing off! Please help!

I removed the plastic clips in hopes of finding a latch, or screw, but no luck...

Anybody?

I had this issue once. I went to the dealer to fix this. I think you have to go in to the sun glass holder and there are some srews there you have to undo. There is a wire you have disconnect. You might have to also unlatch the amp lights to get in to it. Then I beleive you have to have a rubber hammer with a screw driver touching the middle of the mirror connected to the windshild and tap downwards to unlatch. I will look at my winsheild and post how it comes off. Hope this gives you a idea.

Should they take care of the mirror on an 01' CL-S with 132,567 miles on it? LOL
