Well, I got the 45-degree mirror out. Kind of a tricky process. First, you remove the side panels from the box:



After removing four nuts, you can draw out the entire tailpiece assembly (including CRT) from the rear:



Use care when sliding out this heavy assembly. Judging by some little nicks around the hole edges in the 45-degree mirror, this CRT was replaced in the past.

The spherical mirror must come out first, to make enough elbow room to withdraw the 45-degree mirror:



You must unscrew the 45-degree mirror clamps from the slanted rails, and then remove the clamps from the mirror. Then with some cautious jiggling and sliding, you can slip the mirror out the side of the box:



The reflective surface looks pretty bad, so off it goes for resilvering:



The spherical mirror looks much. much better, so I may try to use it as-is.
