Ken,

The EV mirror mounts are rather complex. The mirror part mounts with tension 
springs to the bracket on the car, one spring through each of the two "arms" 
going to the bracket. I had a spring come unhooked on the top driver's side 
mirror (cracked die casting) - and had a time pulling the spring out to 
reconnect it. If the main body of the bracket itself is broken I wouldn't 
think a fix is really feasible. If it's just loose, maybe the spring unhooked.

The mirrors come off easily enough - pull the interior panels (easier than a 
Vanagon - 3 screws on the arm rest handle, one top front, one snap-on at the 
top rear, undo the lock button, then list up the whole panel) and unplug the 
wiring harness. Then 3 screws on the mirror and work out the foam block.

Haven't seen a manual yet - Bentley has a website and they still make no 
mention. Sure would like one tho.
