We do offer replacement mirrors, like CIPA Rearview Mirror # CM33000, but we do not offer the glass as a separate item. Rear view mirrors come in wedge-style and cam-lock styles. (See image) Both use a slide-in fitment for the mirror's base to engage the windshield mount. To remove the mirror in most applications it will need to slide up towards the vehicle's roof in order to disengage from the mount.

If there is no set screw or other fastener on your mirror mount then you may have a cam-lock type.

You can also use a clamp on mirror like the K-Source panoramic aspheric rearview mirrors parts # KSRM1300 and # KSRM1100. These are both general-fit products not intended for any particular vehicle. They both feature fully adjustable spring-loaded mounting brackets that work fine with a wide range of OEM mirror styles. Both sizes feature an optical blue lens to reduce reflected glare from car lights, mist, etc.
