Guide for side mirror dismantling

Hi Batcave,

a user of the CX5-Forum postet a discription of his attempt to repair a broken folding-mechanism of one of his side mirrors. In this context he also shows how to disassamble the mirror casing:
First you have to remove the mirror glass (?) in order to unclip the rear cover to get to the turn signal indicators ( I'm not quite shure if removing of the mirror glass ist necessary - maybe the rear cover and the housing are just clipped together and can be pulled apart by means of a flat tool to be put between rear cover and housing. Try carefully...)

Even though the side mirrors of CX-5 and CX-3 are not identical they are still similar and the pictures may help you:
