Default Rearview mirror

Hello Ramva,

A buddy of mine gave me his spare rearview mirror.
It's the one which you can 'click' away with a knop at the bottom.
My guess is it's from a mexi beetle since he owned one.

The question here is how to replace the stock one ('73 std) with this one?
(if possible)
There are no visable screws or bolds on the stock mirror nor the adjustable
one.
Am I to jank it of the sealing with a certain twist or is there a more
sophisticated way to do it?

Thanks in advance,
Roger

Roger, the stock mirror will come off with a twist of about 45 degrees
either way....

Hey thanks Joey.
Now I have an awsome adjustable rearview mirror.
Your tip worked great!

Guess what I did with my inside rear veiw mirror?

Got a good looking right hand mirror that matched the left hand
mirror pretty good.
