Who has put one in their CX-7's??

I just did and was a pain in the ass to put it on.

The connection was a piece of cake, but while trying to put the mirror on, it doesn't fit well and I ended up breaking my windshield where the mirror "hanger" is!!!!

I fixed it with Super Glue, but it will never be the same, LOL. (pissed)

In the end, the glue worked, the mirror is installed and I LOVE IT!!!

It should be standard equipment. I had it in my Altima and I can't live whitout it.
 
there's that little notch hole at the top of where the mirror slides onto the windshield base... use a small enough screwdriver, or better yet, an allen wrench of the biggest size that will fit into that hole... you will need to use it to push down into that hole as there is a spring loaded metal clip that applies friction force to the base... then you should be able to wiggle the mirror off the base

it is the ONLY pain the ass part of the installation, the rest is easy
 
you mean at this height, you can still get blinded by headlights from the cars behind? (shocked)

sorry... couldn't resist... (glare)
 
If you get one with the compass, do you have to install anything additional? What kind of a pain in the tail is that?
