Yeah, use a thin prying tool to slowly work the caps loose if you are swapping them. I used a butter knife the first time I did it. But a plastic trim removal tool will work better, Les risk of scratching it. You can get those plastic trim tools from Harbor Freight or most auto parts stores have them now too. It's basically a small plastic pry bar.
I have an assortment of them since I used to install car stereos and alarm systems. I needed them to take dash panels and interior trim panels off without damaging them. I used to just use a flat head screwdriver back in the day, but I quickly realized that was NOT the way to do it.

Hubby said if you started out with manual mirrors that the harness will not be there to plug into wont work. If they were power mirrors the blink would work.

they will work if they are power mirrors such as you select left or right and you can move up down , side , side. You don't mean power mirrors such as power fold correct?
