			Internal Rear View Mirror Removal
		
		
				
					
					
				
				
		
			
				
					Hi Guys,
I am pulling the hood lining out of my recently acquired 73 RR and wanted to know how to remove the internal rear view mirror, I do not want to hurt it.
Does anyone know how they come out?
My old original workshop manual just says pull it out!

					They are TIGHT.
From memory it's a heavy duty spring with something like a ball bearing on each end, that locks into the mirror base.
Mine was a pig to remove, and I ended up damaging the rubber trying to pry it off. Yanking on it feels like you're gong to cave the roof in.

					Did you twist it clockwise or anti-clockwise, push it forward or pull it back?
