The glass is only held in place by 4 clips, pull firmly on one side to remove.

Replacing the mirror is a bit tricky, push down on one side and get it to click and just follow through to get the rest snapped back in place. This will take some force, be careful and try to spread out the pressure so you don't crack the glass.

The fourth bolt is hidden from view until you pull back on the weatherstripping, forward of the trianglular mounting area.

Any why did you remove the side mirrors? Was it to install your Muth mirrors? Thanks for the details.
