[DeTomaso] Removing glue-on mirrors

[michael frazier]

Take off the little trim panel (or scrape away some of the paint)on the inside to determine what kind and how much adhesive they used.  Something like Liquid Nails could be a B***h.  Steady pressure will take care of

the many RTV mounted units.  That and a hard plastic putty knife has worked for me a few times.
