Outside mirror removal 2005 E500
I clipped a plastic construction barrel with my right mirror. The impact blew the glass out. I went to the dealer a bought a new mirror for $98. A tech was kind enough to install it for me. However, now my passenger mirror turn signal is out. The tech removed the mirror assembly easily with a screwdriver. There seems to be only one clip holding it in place but I am unable to remove the mirror.
Does anyone know the trick?

Most of the mirrors have a spring holder on the back that must be removed. They also seem to have double-sided tape. After the spring is removed, I have had to carefully pry the mirror loose from the tape.
