Default Ripped my side mirror off!!

So earlier today I was pulling out of the garage, not really paying attention because the gf was asking me a bazillion questions. All of the sudden I hear a "pop" noise[:'(], you know the type of sound that makes you shiver and then too scared to look over at what happened. Anyways I look at my drivers side mirror and its gone, luckly it didnt break the glass or anything it just popped off the plastic screw holes. Know I am gonna have to glue it and find a way to install it. Does anyone know of a manual? I think that I have to take the iner triangle "where the tweeter is on mach systems" off to access the screws. I appreciate any help.

also my car didn't start sputtering like eleanor did on gone in 60 sec's when its mirror was pulled off

No 94-98 are different. Go to a junk yard and pay $15-20 for a used beat up one or $24 for a brand new one.
