I recently bought a used factory auto-dimming inside rearview mirror. Naturally being used there are no installation instructions included. I found an old thread on here where someone had scanned in the instructions but they are hard to read for the most part. If anyone has a copy of these instructions and could mail me a set I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

Hopefully someone can help you out, Im interested in the process too.

How much are you into it? Where do you find these things? Ebay? Wrecking yards?

Good luck (thumb)

I bought it from another forum member (mp3racer), it was in an '03 LX that he was converting for racing. IIRC I paid $90 for it with all harnesses. Of course I haven't laid eyes on it physically yet (I'm out of the country at the moment), there could be some fasteners and the like missing depending upon how thorough his crew chief was in removing it. If you would like I can let you know how the install goes, send me a PM so I remember once I get home.

I've been wanting to get one for some time, even thought about getting a brand new one although the price is scary. I was happy to find the one on here. I haven't seen one on eBay yet. If you have any self-pull junkyards around where you live you could check there once in a while. You can also check www.car-part.com, it's a junkyard site that lists things all over. Not sure how you could look up something like this though, it would probably be hit or miss. Also some of the yards aren't too good about updating their info, I found a glass moonroof for my RX-7 at a yard only a couple of miles from where I live, when my girlfriend called the guy said it had been sold. Good luck.
