DIY Side Mirror LED Flood Light Swap?

This might be a long shot as not sure how many people have a CLA 45 yet, but I noticed the only set of bulbs Mercedes neglected to put LED's in are the side mirror flood lights (lights under the side mirrors that go on when door opens)

Most Mercedes have LED flood lights, any ideas on how to swap? The side mirrors are pretty generic for all Mercedes products, looks like the bottom piece of the mirror might come off??

Thanks for any advice!
