Be careful, take your time, and it can come off without scratches.
Putting it back in is tricky too. Either the top section slides in first, then the bottom clips on...or vice versa. Can't remember. You will see the tabs on the back when you get it off.
Consider getting a kit like this if you like to DIY

So you pried it off from the outside without collapsing and pushing on the tabs first on the inside? I might have to try your method after I collapse the tabs again. In my case it feels like someting else is holding up top other then the 2 tabs because I was pushing on both of them at the same time with enough force to fold the mirror housing forward but I achieved absolutely no seperation between the cover and the mirror housing.
I think I have the demon mirror cover.
