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.
Which side...driver/passenger?
I started from the bottom-inside corner on the exterior of the mirror cover. The corner enabled me to fit my pry tool easier. I gently pryed little by little around the bottom cover until I could wiggle and pop it off. This may not be the service manual way, but worked for me. Just be careful.

If you're still struggling with it, I could possibly make a vid.
