How do I remove the rear-view mirror from my 2001 Forester?
The rear-view mirror on my 2001 Forester just fell off (the glue holding the mirror base to a rubber pad attached to the windshield gave out). The mirror proper is held to the base by a clip. I've tried compressing the clip with needle-nosed pliers (fairly coarse-tipped: a Leatherman tool), but have been unable to separate the mirror from the base. It appears that there should be a way to loosen the clip from beneath, had the mirror not fallen off and I wanted to remove the mirror in place. How do I separate the mirror from the base so that I can reattach the base to the windshield, then the mirror to the base? Thank you.

Maybe you were describing the exact same thing, but it seemed like you were talking about the connection between the mirror and the arm that holds it?
In this case, a picture is worth a thousand words...
Were you referring to a clip like this:
