The rear view mirror on my wife's jetta recently broke, so we decided to replace it. I have a Bentley's service manual on cd, but the section on removing the mirror is missing--of course! Does anyone have this section or has removed one and can give me some helpful hints or the section I'm missing from my manual? Thanks!

The windshield one, or the door ones?

Sorry--it's the one on the windshield. I took a closer look at it and was able to get it off by prying one side of a set of metal clips holding it onto the base--not as bad as I thought!

Yeah, they are designed to pop off the windshield in a crash, so as to injure less.
