Anyone replace side mirror glass only?

2024 EB Premium. My passenger side mirror glass is cracked. The mirror housing and motor mechanicals are all fine. I found some YouTube videos on glass replacement but it was for the S550. Looks relatively straight forward - move it up and inward to expose the clips behind, use a trim tool to pop it out, disconnect the harnesses, reverse to install - but nothing around the S650. New glass is around $160 . Did a bunch of searches here and didn't see anything. Wondering if anyone has replaced the glass, and if so, any tips.

Thanks

I replaced the driver side mirror glass only. Turn the mirror inward as far as it will go. You will be able to get your fingers behind it on one side and a pry tool under the other side.Work the pry tool side out a little and you should be able to get your fingers behind that side as well. Then pull evenly. The piece is thick and you will pull hard before it breaks free. Careful of wires connected at the same time. Mine had two plugs, one was easy, the other needed a small pry tool. Plug in replacement wires and firmly push glass back into place. Don't worry about breaking any glass. It's thick and can take it. 10-15 minute job.

Thanks, good to know. Wanted somewhat of a warm fuzzy before popping for a replacement.
