AUDI 100 Wing Mirror replacement

[rolluprob]

Hello, I have an AUDI 100 (2.8E) 1992 (J reg), and the driver's side wing mirror glass has gone walkies. This includes the back-plate, so a stick-on replacement will not do.

I've sourced a replacement, but it's the whole unit. removing the mirror from this seems impossible (or at risk of breaking something). Can anyone advise, please?
I've see pics online of how to do this on an A4 already.

Alternatively, I thought to replace the whole wing mirror unit. There's one accessible screw for this inside the door - but after removing this - I can't see how the whole unit can easily be removed. Would I have to remove all the door panelling etc?

Many thanks

You should be able to prise the mirror out of the unit without breaking it ok.

Had to do this with 1993 100 S4 but assume much the same unit...

Thanks urquattro20v for your reply... Mmh, just a little bit worried that if I lever the bugger off, the fixings might be buggered... I will try again though. Thanks
