mirror triangle removal

Yes, I read all the pertinent posts, but they all say "pry off top clip with wedge tool" or something to that affect. I think my white plastic retainer in my door is extremely tight and won't let go of the tab like it should.

I will try double-sided tape for a fix.

I noticed the wrench in the tool kit (for the top) has an open end wrench that looks about right to try as a door panel removal tool or to straddle the tab on the triangle and pry with.

It is better to save the money DIY rather than pay the labor rates, for sure.
