My heating on my side mirrors is no longer working.the fuse seems to be fine,so maybe there is a problem with the heating circuit of the mirror glass.Has anyone any idea how can i replace the side mirror glass? Many thanks

It clips in. I normally push the mirror in at the bottom & get my fingers behind the top edge & pull.
If your fingers are too big, push the mirror in at the car side and you’ll find more room to get behind on the other side – you just can’t spread the load so much. You may find the connectors are dirty.

Isn't the heating element in the mirror body, not the actual glass ?

The heating element is embedded in the glass... You can just pull the glass off there are only a couple of clips holding it in place and disconnect the two wires and change the glass... I think I have an old one somewhere to take some pictures of.
