Default 2005 Buick Rendezvous power mirrors

Hi Guys,
Continuing the rehab of my 2005 3.6 Rendezvous. Now focused on my power mirrors. these are also heated. The motors are a little clunky / sticky. question is, how do you remove the mirror face on these so I can attend to the motors? I don't want to damage them.
Thanks,
Mark

It'* usually pretty easy to pop them out if you turn them all the way one way or another to where you can see the latches. The manual will definitely help.

Thanks for the insight, it'* kinda what I remember when doing something similar to a Montana. It is a 3.6 DOHC AWD by the way, an early High Feature V6, it was a bit of a beast when it was brand new. Still is but it only has the 4spd transmission; now 8 and 10 spds are common. I actually bought a Cadillac 3.6 emblem for the back gate.

I stand corrected! I just looked it up because I didn't know they put anything besides the 3.4 in there. A Rendezvous with a 3.6 would be nice! I can't believe they fit anything OHC in that bay. It was already tight with a pushrod engine.
