You don't have to remove the mirrors, just the bezel that goes around them.

pull the rubber boot loose and then pull the bezel free and then you can remove the screw that holds the chrome trim in place.

Mine was the same way.   It is in the design of the headlight bucket on the 1200.  Either the low beam was too low or the high beam was too high, but there wasn't any way to adjust one from the other.
