Hello, my side mirrors are in need of new glass and liners, what holds the glass in place. I know 914 Rubber sells the glass but is there a source for the liners? Is there a technique for removing and reusing the original liners without damage?
Thanks in advance.

As to technique, I use my fingernail to pull off the black plastic gasket. It's very strong and rarely breaks. don't use a screwdriver, it cracks the edge of the stainless back.

Lube all the hardware inside the arm and mirror back. It dries out, corrodes and you bend up the mirror back trying to twist the pivots.

A little mothers polish makes them look like new.
