Doesn't just pop off - there's screws which you can get to only from the inside..which means removing the mirror and accessing the interior..

Another related question.
I have searched the forum but couldn't find an topic about it that explains this well.
How to remove the OEM mirrors and install the M5 Mirrors. Is there a step-by-step explanation of this?
Hope that someone can help me.

Thank you.

I found one, but the pics are not that good.
And the explanation is in German.
So I don't really understand that.
