In Houston we call it stuntin'...im mean think about it you pull up, park and then turn off your car. Your windows roll up automatically and the side mirrors fold in...no pratical use...its just stuntin'

Hip Hop terminology lesson for tha day

hi folks.
I won that Auction by the way Hee.. Hee.. Hee..
I've been wanting to get those for along time. Before it was $250, plus $89 shipping from Japan.
That was too steep for me. Now I found this one for $89. Good thing nobody else wanted it or I'd be paying more.

Recently I have been studying the 96-98 TL and the 2004-50 TSX mirrors, and I found that the TSX signal mirrors can be put on the 96-98 TL mirrors. AlL I have to do is cut the back of the 96-98 TL mirror housing an wuala, and the rest is just some relay work.

About the heated mirrors, Only the 3.2TL model has it. I got mine at a salvage yard for $50 bucks. They are interchangeable with the 2.5TL mirrors. All you will need is a relay and a toggle swith to get them working.

I'm awaiting for parts right now. Im thinking of making a makiing a walk through with pictures on how to add led signals to 96-98 TL side mirrors.

The folding function is really useful where I live when the streets are narrow and you have people parking on both sides.

As for hooking it up to am alarm and have it close everytime the door is lock, its a bad idea. Its going to wear the motor out and replacement will be hard since its rare.

yea, i was thinking of getting them while i got all the other jdm parts, but i decided not to.. not a big fan of them, but just make sure you switch out the mirror glasses from you stock one.. people tend to forget that since jdm is right hand drive, the images in the mirrors are also distorted.. you know what i mean right?.. the "warning, object.. blah blah blah" that's written on the stock passanger side mirror...
