To remove the mirror simply use a flat head screw driver on the inner side and pull toward you. There are two retainer clips on the outer side that will release.
If your issue is just vibration you can place some more of the white paste seen in the pictures. It was sticky but not too sticky to hinder removal (dont know what its made of)
If your hear a sound like a metal spring when you close the door. It can be due to the retainer pins. one of mine were loose and I just placed a dab of super glue.

Thanks for the great close up pictures. A video of popping the mirror off would be awesome!!
