Hey Eric,

Both mirrors on my A4 have also delaminated.  With that car it was a 
relatively simple and painless matter of carefully prying the old mirror 
out of the housing, and then popping the new mirror on (after attaching 
the defroster lead).  I haven't had to do it for the S4 yet, but I would 
think it would be a similarly straight forward procedure.
