To replace the mirror, the guide pins (red) insert into the guide holes.  The spring clips (blue) go into their respective cavities.  They don't clip to anything.  The tabs (yellow) on either side of the guide pins are what clip to the circular motor assembly in the mirror housing.  I gently pushed the mirror in at the 1 o'clock position and pushed the rest of it in slowly in a clock-wise motion, listening/feeling each clip (yellow) catch the ring.  Use leather gloves when installing so if it breaks you don't get cut.  It takes firm, evenly distributed pressure to seat the mirror.
