LOL~!!!!
if anyone had seen me do what i just did...they would still be laughing...
i got the mirror off somehow...
after looking at it from outside the car...i decided that i needed to squeeze the clip in...
i took out a folding plyers and went at it...
somehow the mirror slipped off and the plyers SMOKED me in the head
nice big red mark on my forehead, along with a huge smile for having the mirror in my hands...
thanks guys

Looking at your pic though, they look like simple spring retainers. I think if you slide the mount UP, it should just slide off. Might take a bit of umph though, so be careful.
If that doesn't work, try fiddling with the two little slots on either side, they look like they were made to accept a flat-head(A screwdriver, I mean, not your own personal cranium.
).

I know HUD windshields are more but ya'll are crazy to pay that much. I was quoted $415 for mine to be replaced. Which reminds me......
i have the receipt for it...$250 installed...
but the REAL gm version is over $1k
....i love blue
