Best Answer

I've done a lot of research and trials with failure on a 98 XK8 conv. According to my service manager if you try to remove the windshield bracket it usually breaks the windshield, which is why the dealership won't just replace the mirror anymore. In my case, my mirror still works but hangs or wobbles now that it's glued with windshield sealant to the bracket when the connector broke. My plan is to replace the badly sand pitted windshield through insurance and at the same time purchase a new mirror +/- $500 - 15% coupon ($75) = $425 and have the glass company install the whole thing which they do as part of the windshield installation.
