IF THESE ARE THE THIN DIY TYPE OF MIRRIOR TILES,THEY MAY BE UP WITH DOPUBLE SIDED TAPE.
IF SO,HEATING THEM VERY SLOWLY AND EVENLY WITH A HAIR DRYER OR HEAT GUN(ON LOW SETTING) MAY LOOSEN THE ADHESIVE COATING ENOUGH TO PULL THEM LOOSE.
USE PRECAUTIONS SUCH AS SAFETY GLASSES,GLOVES,TAPE ETC.
IF THEY ARE REALLY UP WITH MASTIC,REFER TO ONE OF THE MANY EARLIER SIMILAR QUESTIONS.
