So looks like it’s a driver side mirror only! I’ll see if I can get some mirror glass cut...

The trick is not to bend the thin glass would you believe. It’s a very tight fit so you need to get a very thin flexible knife in behind the gasket, in serveral places (in my case 3 knives) at once, and ease it out.  Little by little. Bit by bit. Be patient....
