Well the mirror is not held in by screws, it is 4 clips/slots the mirror slides into, so i'm a bit confused as to how I can help. you literally have to slide the whole mirror UP out of the 4 posts/clips to get it free, then you can slide the electrical connections for the heating element out, and possibly unclip the autodimming harness if you have that feature.


Or are you actually talking about the entire mirror assembly that bolts to the door? If so and you broke the head off the screw completely, unfortunately you are in a pickle.
