Outside Mirror Lower Cover Removal Instructions Needed

Broke my passenger mirror housing today backing out of the garage. Miraculously did not break the mirror. Already did that one before. Broke the lower upper and lower housing. The upper is probably salvageable but the lower is in pieces, Know how to remove the top cover and mirror but not the lower cover. Looks like I might need to remove a tiny outboard torx screw but not sure. Any instructions would be appreciated. Thanks

Removed and installed it today. It was somewhat difficult to install because the wire that goes to the puddle light didn't want to sit in a channel allocated to it. This resulted in it being impossible to get the cover in position to allow the inboard clips (C and B) to engage. After recognizing this I tried positioning the wire in channel and following up with engaging the inboard side first then the outside clip D which worked.

The focus of this thread was the lower cover.
