    Hi there WD3,
    are you by any chance WD40's younger brother!
    Thanks anyway for trying to help. Unfortunately the Range Rover mirror doesn't have a nice convenient slot underneath like other more considerately designed cars have. 
    If it had I would not have had to ask for advice, but here goes anyway, A hammer always does the trick!
    cheers

Hi there! I think you poke a screwdriver into the slot in the bottom of the mirror housing and move it side to side. The mirror is probably held in a sort of cage in a bayonet type fitting. It's really clear when it's out but the first time can be awkward. Alan.

Passenger side mirror

If you need to replace the entire mirror - it's a little involved. First you need to take the upper extension panel off from behind the mirror (black triangle) - just pull it of starting at the top. It will snap back on later. Next - remove the different screws holding the door panel in place (not the ones behind the mirror yet!) One is under the handle (pull it out and pull out the filler panel - small plastic thing that has a hole to pry it out). Then take off the rear red light - also pops off - and remove that screw. Finally - pick up the rubber filler where your fingers pull the door shut and remove these torx bolts.

Now is the tricky part. Snapp off the entire interior panel. It will pop off - but very difficult. It will sound like it is breaking! Start at the outer bottom corner - and use a door panel remover tool - check Amazon or E-bay - to keep from breaking things. Pull it out from all around the bottom and sides and then lift it up over the door lock. It good to have a friend help here. The panel will still be held on by a cable - that is your door release - leave it alone and let the panel hang by it (or better, put a box under it to rest on).

Now...remove the three bolts holding the mirror on - have a friend help hold the mirror while you do this or it will scratch your new car! Since the inner panel is off - you can also disonnect the mirror plus and remove it. It sounds silly - but the only reason to remove the door panel is to unplug it!

Get you new mirror and reverse the steps.

If you are just replacing the glass (non-heated) - get a replacement from the dealer. Adjust the mirror all the way to the inside and reach behind and pop it off. CAREFUL - put tape over the entire glass as it will likely break even more! Remove your connectors if heated - and replace (and reconnect) with your new glass. It just pops back on!

Replacing glass is easy - just be careful of cheap imitations on e-abay). And never use cheap flat glass on the passenger side! The DOT has special requirements for mirror glass - buy it from gmpartsdirect.com or your local dealer.

Wiring up the heater elements on the electric door mirrors.

Hi,
I have a Mazda 6 Estate - I've just had the glass out of my mirror this evening, because my mirror heater is not working - there was a bunch of wires into the mirror unit - two of which went to spade connections on the back of the mirror.
The glass itself is on a plastic mount. The mount and the glass should just lever/pull out - that's what I did with mine - I was worried it was going to break though, it took substantial force! Once out I could see a plastic rectangle with rounded corners that it had been clipped onto. It clipped back into place with out any difficulty (on mine there is a wire guide behind the glass - just make sure that you haven't bent it upon removal - I had, but the pliers straightened it again).
