Folding passenger side mirror stuck.

Hi all. The passenger side mirror is stuck in folded position on my 2000 E320. I pushed it back because I wanted to lubricate the hinges, (expecting it to snap back into place like the pre 2000 versions), but it has the power folding option so it is stuck in the folded position. I can hear the motor running but it will not catch the gear to move the whole housing forward. I cannot remove the plastic cover to access the internals because this is the updated model (year 2000) and does not seem to have the retainer clip that the older, spring loaded types had. Anyone knows how to remove the plastic cover so I can get better access to the gears?

Thanks,

Alex
