    There is a small set screw (also know as internal wrenching or allen key screw) in the mirror attach base at the windshield. I can't remember the size, maybe 1/16 or 3/32 in.

    Insert allen key into set screw, loosen off the set screw, then slide the mirror assembly in an upward direction. It will slide off the window mount that is glued to the window.

    To install, reverse the above procedure.

        Really? I've haven't seen a GM without one!

        It's really small and black just like the base that it's screwed into. So it isn't the most obvious thing.

        My mirror fell off last year and I had to re-glue the window mount pad. My car is a 99 FB and the mirror does have a set screw.
