and don't pull too much at an angle as you can break the clip on the mirror. You need to pull straight and not at an angle. I thought it was better to pull from the lower middle part of the mirror.

Ya' know this is a little off topic from the original post, but I've got to say regarding the puddle lamps, my 07' clearly says on the invoice "LED Puddle Lamps".

I know what LEDs look like and they are not yellow! I think since I got a first 07' model, they were still getting rid of their incandescent bulbs!

Now that makes my oil boil!

Lexem,

Check your invoice and see what it says, I'd be curious. The GS that they gave me last summer clearly had LEDs for puddles. There's no mistaking the color on them versus an incandescent.

Take care,
