You just need to be gentle as they are held on with a center ball, so a screwdriver each side and gently lever it off

although from what I have learnt in the last 10 minutes,80/90 mirror glasses come out easily but the coupe ones don't looking at the back of them they are slightly different.The coupe ones have a sping clip on them aswell on the outer edge
