That`s the first I heard of a Mirror falling off like that. It lasted 30 years out in the elements so probably much longer than the MB designers anticipated.

The only one I saw on Pelican is for the left side.
1983 Mercedes-Benz 240D Sedan - Exterior Trim - Page 2

Next time you are in the Yards, use a flat Wedge from the outside edge of the Mirror, and pry it off. the outer end is held on with a Ball/Socket and the inner part is a flat forked piece. Pop the Ball and pull it off.

The whole Mirror assy is around $35.

We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics. Funny how that works
