Change Rearview Mirror

[DieterFromTroisdorf]

Hello,

I 've got a 2006 IS250 without navigation. Now I want to incorporate a rear view camera system with LCD monitor in the rearview mirror. Does anybody know how to remove the serial mirror?

For easier discrition I add a picture of the actual situation.

I would imagine it's stuck there with some glue, have you tried warming it with a hair dryer?

It is quite resistant against warming. I think because it has to stay there even in african summerheat.

And I'm afraid that the windscreen may break due to thermal stresses if I try it with a hot air gun.

Hoped that I could push it up or down or turn it; even with help of a tool (splint).

No don't use a hot air gun :( A hair dryer should be the maximum heat you apply .

not sure how it would come off probably the hair drier would be your bst bet, you should ask a garage that do windscreen replacements as they would be the expert at it.
