Well, it flashed over to opaque.

Looking for instructions and parts list.

You should be able to pop it out by prying firmly from the bottom of the glass. Be careful as there will be an electrical connection behind the glass you need to disconnect.

I didn't realize how easy it was. Popped it off and it is heated.

Turns out the glass actually fell off. My local porsche wants $156 for a new one.

Pelican Parts has them for cheaper but you need to look at the part number on yours as theres a few variations. Convex/Heated/Auto-Dimming.

Spent $89 at Suncoast. It is definitely the right part.

In the meantime, turns out a Mustang's glass (for $16) is almost exactly the same size. I installed that 'flat glass' until the OEM shows up.

Got the OEM ones yesterday. This is the Mustang one.

Not to shabby.

While on this topic, I have to replace the drivers side, it came out pretty easy and I have the replacement, but I don't see a way to separate the old lenses from the plastic housing ? Maybe in my case I need to replace both as a unit? Any direction on this will be appreciated.

I bought my last replacement glass from an Amazon seller. Fit like OEM and a whole lot cheaper.

It also came with some backing adhesive. A direct replacement item.
