Water in the mirror?

Huh?

There is water in my driver's side mirror. It takes up about 7/8 of the reflecting surface. What's up, and how can I get it out?

It's not water it's the dielectric oil for the heated mirror surface and it's not leaking in it's leaking out, you're gonna have to replace the glass.

If the glass need to be replace, might as well update to the Muth Signal Mirror Kit.

This is probably a job for the guys at Rip-off Central (the local dealer), eh?

Muth signal mirrors do not have the heat feature which might be important to you in Iowa, Dictator has installed many sets of mirrors PM him I'm sure he can describe the process and you can see if you are comfortable doing it.
