CF mirror replacement

Hello gents, I was wondering if anyone can help me out?

I bought some new carbon fibre side mirror housings and they don't come with the signal light lense and assembly. I got the mirror casing off no problem but I can't seem to get the lens assembly out. I took out the 2screws and got it past the clips but it seems to stuck on the fat end of the essembly (opposite side to the fingers of the lense) has any body removed the lense and transplanted it to the new CF covers.

Thanks in advance for any help.

By lense I think you mean the mirror, right?

It's the first thing you take off. From the bottom push all the way down. The grab the top at "10 n 2",and pull out from the top and push from the bottom.

Then you take off 2 screws, and 3 more for the motor assembly.

The light is glued on
Use something to wedge between the two and slowly pry out
Doesn't seem right but that's what I found

No I am not referring to the mirror, the marker light is the issue but thanks.

Yea that is what I was originally thinking but I wanted to check with someone who has removed it.
