to tell me how to get the mirror housing apart? Anyone?

 

Don't know if I understand what you mean?

How to get the mirror, actual glass part out?

 

Yes. Or how to get into the housing behind the glass.

Somehow they had to put it together, I want to take mine apart.

 

I’m curious, why?

I know they glue the glass in. You can look it the mirror in the right lighting with a pair of polarizing sun glasses and see where the glue is.

Other than breaking the glasses, I don't know how you would tank it off.

 

There's a lot of wasted space in there and I think I can put it to good use.

 

I know what you mean... maybe if you can find something like goo remover for decals that doesn't harm paint or the finish... you can soften up the glue holding the mirror on. I'd be afraid it'd take the reflective material off too. Try it out on an old mirror from a scrap bike.

 

Good idea on testing it with an old mirror first.

If anybody else knows anything, chime in too.

 

LOL, I would say its just glues on, but to get it off you would most likely end up breaking it, or you could just wait a few more years and it might just fall off on its own?

 

try using a heat gun to soften the glue up. no clue if it'll work or not, but it works on car badges.

 

Well I was in the glass biz for about 15 years, com and residentiel, Idid lots and lots of mirror work, mirrored walls bathroom pullmans and the like, did a few rearview and side mirror replacements too, cut em, ground em, to fit, and glued em in, I'll tell you right now these mirrors from the Factory are glued in to stay, anything you use to soften the glue is more than likely to destroy the silvering and the coating on that, unless you can get to what you want from behind where the mirror housing attaches to the fairing, your gona wind up breaking the glass, peal out the busted stuff, do what your gona do then take to a glass shop and have them cut you new ones and reglue them in, make sure the guy knows what he is doing and not hand it off to a shop dweeb who will make a bad fit, remember no matter it might not look Factory and the glass he has in stock will be a little thicker the what you had, they don't always carry the thinner material on hand.........hope I helped
