Can anyone that's done this shed some light on how to get these side mirror caps off? I'd like to switch out the bulbs for LEDs, but my god it's tough to get these things off.

I can successfully unclick the right inner clip nearest to the car, and the middle clip. The clip that's giving me trouble is the far outermost clip, furthest away from the car. What do I need to do to get this one off?

Turn the mirror all the way towards the car (if I remember correctly) and there is a little rectangular black piece you'll see. Might need a light. Pry that out. It's like a locking key. Then you can literally just pop it off.

Omg so it pulls straight out? I could see that it was moving, but I thought it must work the same as the other two.

Thanks a lot for the help.

Thanks for that. I was trying to bend the part that pulls out.
