In other "accidents while doing this" FYIs, I just had a windshield replacement, and they of course didn't reinstall the mirror taps in the process. When doing it on my own, I learned, never rotate the mirror counterclockwise when the trim pieces are off - it'll literally rotate off the clip mounts and pop off entirely. Luckily, I had just wrapped the wiring harnesses in cloth tape and they didn't do any damage in the fall to the dash, but be careful!
