Default Removing glass from mirrors on CTR

Searched a few posts and it sounds like you just need to "pop" the glass off the mirrors but I don't know how to do that. Can someone explain the process besides just saying to "pop" the glass off. I just don't want to ruin them since they were so expensive. Thanks.

You do just that. They're on a knuckle/socket. You POP them off. Be careful to put equal pressure or you'll flex the glass and shatter it in the frame.

Here is a TSB showing how, with a flat head screwdriver and shop towel or rag:

Thanks guys! I'll give it a try and hope for the best. Look for my post in a couple days on my DIY (minus the color coat) paint job.
