Price : $160.99
Customer Reviews
The mirror is well made and functions just as advertised. Installation , though advertised easy, was more involved than some may want to get into. I installed it in my 2003 Chevy truck and didn't run into too many problems, but running wires up the windshield post might be a trick in many vehicles. Particularly those vehicles with side curtain air bags located in the windshield post trim, something the instructions don't warn you about.
This is a great product with awesome features. It is quality made and was easy to install. I would have gave it 5 stars if it was a little wider a mirror. I installed it in an 2008 F250 Superduty truck and the mirror is about an inch narrower than the factory one, which gives quite a bit less of a rear view. In a car or SUV you most liely would never notice. Other than that it is a great well built product.
Product Description
From the Manufacturer
CIPA-USA is pleased to introduce our new line of Auto Dimming interior rear view mirrors. Leading the way in next generation out products, these mirrors sense ambient light and glare from behind, and reduce annoying glare from bright lights. With built-in features such as a compass, temperature indicator, and map lights, you have the option of customizing your mirror to containing only the features you need. Also available in camlock mount for imports.
CIPA's Auto Dimming Rearview Mirror with Compass, Temperature, and Map Lights provides the perfect solution to annoying headlight glare at night. Sensors react to bright lights and dim the mirror glass for comfort and safety. It also offers a disable button for when dimming is unwanted. Additional features include a digital compass, temperature readout, and dual map lights. The compass features a bright LED display, and is self-calibrating. The temperature feature displays outside ambient temperature, and can be programmed to display in F or C. The map light feature provides that extra bit of light just where you need it. First time installations will require routing a power and sensor wire. Vehicles with an existing auto-dimming mirror and a 7 pin connector can plug directly in. Otherwise, the wires can be tapped using the wire tap provided. Mirror is 10" long by 2.5" tall, and is a wedge base mounting mirror. This kit includes a mirror, 6.5 ft. power wire harness, wire tap, 9 wire ties, temperature sensor, 14 ft. temperature sensor wire, operation card, wedge button, and instructions. Mirror mounting epoxy not included. Hint: a camlock mount mirror is commonly found on imported vehicles and is removed by turning the mirror 90 degrees, then pulling down. A wedge mount mirror is commonly found on domestic vehicles and is removed by loosening a small screw and pushing the mirror up toward the roof. Camlock-mount Auto Dimming Rearview Mirrors with the same features are also available (part number 36501). Made in the USA and FMVSS approved under section 571.111 of Standard No. 111. Note: We do not recommend installing these mirrors if your vehicle has airbag sensors in the headliner, if your vehicle is equipped with OnStar, or if your vehicle is a hybrid model. Installation of this mirror may disable or damage certain components which are critical to the safety features installed on your vehicle. Check with your vehicle manufacturer for more information.
