I had to reinstall mine on the passenger side. As Old Jeep's post says, move the mirror to look all the way down. If you peek in there you can see the metal snaps that hold the top in place. Once you see them you'll see how easy it is to remove the mirror. The bottom ones are just hinges so rotate the top of the mirror down and pull it out. I found that when I put mine back in, I had to rotate the mirror mechanism to the middle position in order for me to snap on the clips.

Kind of depends which mirrors you have, the towing mirrors are $300-$400 a piece and the glass is around $35
