2021 RT Ltd - any easy way of removing the back plastic mirror cover?

how to easily remove the 2021 rt ltd back plastic cover without damaging it?

It's semi easy. You take a plastic "bone" or body panel removal tool or other flat plastic piece/tool. Insert it into the gap at the outer edge of the mirror and carefully pry it apart. There is one of the Can Am metal clips that hold it together at that point. That one separates very easily. There are 2 more. One on top and one on the bottom. They are located near the inner most portion of the mirror body. These two were more difficult to separate, but they do separate with a little prying and pulling apart. It is a linear movement by just pulling the front cover forward. Then is just pushes back together in reverse order.

KX5062 is absolutely correct.
I would add one small caveat.

I've found that the cover tends to pull away freely and very suddenly.
After you've been yanking on it for a while, when it comes free, make sure you have a good grip on it, or it can get away from you and fall on the floor.
Don't ask me how I know this.

Has anyone found any YouTube videos on how to do this?

Check out Lamonsters repair video's I think you may find one there.

I just HAVE to ask, ThreeWheels……..did YOU fall on the floor with it?
