Here is the deal, my power side veiw mirror broke, so i bought a new one. after having it on for about a week some jerk face backed into me and the only thing he hit was the brand new mirror i just bought, cracking only the housing but the internals work fine. Now my question is can i swap the internals from the new one to the old housing. i've tried to pop of the lens and unscrew the internals, but i don't want to break it and both be unuseable.
 
Remove the mirror of the door. Rotate the glass till tabs that hold it to the motor are exposed (flashlight helps). Use a small flat head screwdriver to lift the tabs of the clips slowy prying each one. There should be four tabs total.
