Wind the window down.
Take off the inside door pull, door handle and window winder.
Unscrew the collar recessed around the mirror joystick thing.
Pop off the door trim and remove.
Peel back the top left corner of the plastic sealing membrane.
Using a socket on a long slim extension, undo the two nuts holding the mirror on, and withdraw the mirror, carefully threading the remote adjuster cables around the window frame inside the door.
Voila.

Don't forget to seal up the plastic membrane with some mastic or bath sealer when you put everything back together.
