I have tried to remove the plastic cover to get to removing the interior rear view mirror .... but for the life of me, couldn't figure how it comes off (if it does).

 

The 300ZX (1990) Nissan Service Maunal has nothing about removing the interior mirror. I'm sure it's an easy thing to do, and there must be some trick to it

without ruining the headliner material or mirror cover piece.

 

I will appreciate any advice or photos showing how to get the entire mirror removed.

Thank you.

After removing the cover unscrew the three Phillips screws.

Ok the mirror has a reusable break away fixing, in the event of an accident if your head hits it, it detaches from the roof section safely, so basically grab it with both hands and pull it down sharply and it will come off. Nothing is broken and it can be refitted easily by removing the cover mentioned above undoing the two screws that hold the base to the roof section, refit the base to the mirror and screw it back up and clip the cover back in.

Welcome to the club David.

Just yank it, the spring will release and it’ll come off in your hand !

That's what I thought I did way back when I firdst had the "Z" .... twisting it and removing it. I remember there was something like a "spring clip" in the mount that would release the roof attachment of the mounted end.
