Just the glass? Angle it fully in and down and pry off from the motor mount.

Whole assembly involves removing the door panel to disconnect the wiring harnesses... put the window down then disconnect the battery and wait five minutes to avoid SRS errors or worse from the curtain airbag.

Pry off the aluminum/wood trim panel on the door handle, the small plastic panel top back of the door, the IC inflatable curtain plastic panel and the panel at the bottom of the handgrip you pull the door closed with. That will reveal a total of five T25 screws that need to be removed. Then you can pry off the door panel. It’s quite heavy. You need to disconnected the air bag and door module wires to remove the panel out of the way at that point.

You can then disconnect the two plugs that connect to the mirror wiring and undo the clips holding the wires in place.

There’s a couple of bolts one above the other toward the rear of the triangle that need to be removed. Then in the front of the door near the top there are two rubber covers about an inch in diameter. Pry them off to reveal the two long bolts running lengthwise of the car that hold the mirror assembly in place... at that point the mirror assembly can be pulled up and out of the door, after freeing it from the weatherstripping.

Hope that helps.
