grab the stalk and twist it clockwise (as you look up at it). Feels
like its going to break, but it comes out, really :)

now as I sit here imagining how I did it, I might be convinced its
counter clockwise, and also even that it doesn't matter which
direction... but try clockwise, yeah, I'm almost sure :)


Installation is the reverse, but be careful not to twist the
headliner (if you have non westy)

I picked up a replacement rear view mirror (like this:

seem to figure out how to get the old one off. Does anybody know how
it comes off?

I scoured the bentley manual with no success finding anything about
removing that mirror. It feels like I'd just slide it up and it'd pop
out somehow but I felt like I was trying too hard when I attempted
that method earlier today.

Thanks!
