All done...

Quite easy actually.

Just unclip the SRS logo, then this turns 90 degrees, then pulling from the top; unclip that clip and the next clip about 15cm futher down the A Pillar. Just two clips in total and no screws...

12 volt and an earth point.

Auto Dim Mirror now installed and working well!

Wow, Nice work!

I would love to add an autodimming rear view mirror as well . Where did you get the Gentex unit if you don't mind me asking?

Good work.i thought it wouldn't be worthwhile doing.how much$$$ did it cost you all up?

Just check out www.ebay.com do a search under Gentex Auto Dim Mirror.
These are the OEM suppliers to the motor vehicle industry (Donnelley also), so the one on your Honda, Toyota, Nissan etc. is a Gentex.

With the exchange rate, no so good.
However all up around $100 brand new.

Dealers want $300 - $500 for this feature.

Oh thanks for bumping this thread Finally, just ordered the mirror so with a bit of luck it should arrive before i get back to aus!! Got some other parts on the way as well haha, finally getting off my ass and doing stuff!

Will update with pics and installation pics (i'm sure it'll be an easy peasy job though) in a month or so

Hey guys, is it possible for a 06 Lux model to not have this feature? Because mine is a 06Lux taht was complied in 05 and does not have this feature! :'(

Is your the Facelift model or Pre Face lift?... In other words does your euro have a full chrome grill or just chrome outline?

If Full chrome... then you got done for and should head back to the dealer....

If Outline... then you have a pre facelift model which wasn't an option.

Its facelift with full chrome grill and blue parkers, i bought it privately so i dont think i can get it anymore, ahh oh wells, i got a broadway mirror so it covers the stock mirror anyway, but damn that sucks, always better to have the feature than not when its a factory feature !
