i would go with A. the dealership replaced mine passenger side and the guy just pulled it off. i think its just clips. But then again.... i dont know about the jdm mirrors. Can you take off the back plastic cover at all with out damaging it?

The mirrors in the pics are my stock mirrors. Not the JDM ones.
The glass is probably held on by clips, but something has to move the clip. I'm gonna try again.

SUCESS!

The mirror is held on by some clips. Also has a wire attached to it for the heated mirror part.

Rear clip:



Which way do you pull it? Like I got the little end off, but it seems that the wires are attached somewere further up.

Perfect! It removed nicely. Hopefully the JDM mirror is the same way.

Look at were the tabs are. Plan your screwdriver placement accordingly.
