    Disassemble RS2-mirrors...?

    How do i split the foot of the mirrors from the 'mirror house'...? Anyone done this operation? Then need to be painted and therefore I want to take them apart. =)

    Actually you do not really need them to be taken apart. If you turn the foot just a notch, you can paint them perfectly. Thats how I did mine.

            Problem solved: It's that huge 14mm 'inside six sided' bolt (dunno the english word for it =)). It was a bit of a pain to unscrew and probably not easier to get it back after the paintjob...
