can you tell us how it was removed ? and the whole 9 yard
To remove the factory mirror, you grasp the base and twist it counter clockwise, this unsnaps it from the windshield mount. It may seem like it is going to break - but don't worry, it will not. Installation is just the reverse.

Yes, the mounting post is there as well. The only thing I do not have is the part that is glued to the windshield.
