yeah,just remove the cover,
take the mirror down,and if its like the 850 then you just undoo 2 bolts inside,push the mirror ball back into the cup and do the bolts up...
its designed to come of in the event of an accident so if a person is thrown forward they wont get gouged on the mirror,its just a ball and socket type fit

i think you just remove the lense from the interior lights,
theres small screws under it,remove them and the plastic comes down,revealing the mirror base

does the ciggy lighter work,
have you had a tomtom or sat nav plugged into the ciggy lighter,as they seem to blow fuses when they arent pushed in or out straight....
or does it only blow the fuse when you open the door etc
