Abstract
An external vehicle rear view mirror assembly has a mirror (12), a mirror plate (14), and a mirror retention plate (16). The mirror plate has an attachment arrangement which can releasably engage the mirror plate to the mirror retention plate. The attachment arrangement has a locking assembly for engaging the mirror retention plate so that the mirror plate, when in the engaged position, can assume a locked position with respect to the mirror retention plate. The locking assembly has locking pins (24, 26) which are movable between a locking position and an unlocking position. Each locking pin has a leading free end (28) and an opposite head end (30). The head end has pin locking surfaces (32, 33a, 33b) which are engageable with a respective plate locking surface (34) of the mirror plate by operation of a respective spring loaded clip-on mechanism (36). Each locking pin is in the locking position when the leading free ends engage the mirror retention plate and lockably retain the mirror plate in the locked position. Each locking pin is in the unlocking position when the leading free ends are disengaged from the mirror retention plate after releasing the spring loaded clip-on mechanism.
