How do I fix the stuck side view mirror? 240D
Probably have to pry off the silver inside cover next to the mirror handle (Drivers side ), and look for some screw?
Anyone ever do this ? Mirror wont budge any angle and handle is non op. Thanks... ..

OK.. Have the mirror off the car now but the 240D has no pin ( 4:15 mark) as in the SD video to remove the rubber cover.
Stuck. No access yet to the inside workings of the mirror. ....

Done. Only way I could find to get to see the innards of the mirror was to use a good plyer to open the tilt of the mirror and hold it open with my hammer's big rubber handle.
Everything was stuck so PB'd everything on the inside. The inside handle on this mirror was no longer connected to the lever inside the mirror. Guess from PO trying to adjust a frozen mirror. So manually did a bunch of wiggling after the lubing in each direction. Now I have a manual mirror from the outside which should be good enough until I find one at a yard...
