i just got trade a 99 old intrigue for a 98 acura 3.2 tl and i miss my rear view mirror with the compass and auto dimmer!!!! is there a place to get ones that will fit a 98 tl on the web for an "ok" price??? the compass can go for all i care but auto dimmer would be a must

 

actually is there any for this car and any other types that will fit this car (98 3.2 tl) thanks ppl

 

your gonna miss that damn car. intrigues have always impressed me even though they are domestic. theyre fast too.

 

i kinda do miss it but i like the japan luxery style better than the us's. any word on the dimmer tho?

 

Do what I did. Go on ebay and buy an autodimming mirror. Get a mirror button. Find a place on the windshield and apply that button so the mirror can securely stay. Insert the mirror then run the wires to make it turn on in Accessory mode and voila...you've got autodimming mirror.

 

damn... thats a rig!!! lol ill stick to getting it done right but that would and will work if nothing else can be done

 

Well, suit yourself. I've been using the mirror for about a year and it is working great. It looks OEM and once you tidy it up, no one will be able to tell that the mirror is installed by me.

 

id do that all day but i have no clue wtf to do so im lost. gimme a link or something to the type of mirror that would work with it if ya could

 

Any autodimming mirror will work. I prefer the Gentex models. If you google online, there's a web forum that has all the wiring schematics with the Gentex mirrors.

 

So an autodimming mirror??? Im assuming it just senses bright light and dims automatically to reduce glare in the drivers eyes???

 

yep thats what they do.... still cant find one that says YES!!! I WILL WORK WITH YOUR 98 ACURA 3.2 TL!!! so im still looking. if ya find one ppl. holla at me!

 

i thought they just auto dim when you turn on the headlights

 

I dont think our rear view mirrors dim when u turn on the headlights.

why not just get an autodimmin mirror from a newer acura? Wire it up and your good to go! not to mention that it will have a stock look as long as you mount it right.

 

I just reach up and adjust my mirror. But thats just me... The two milliseconds it take to adjust , Ill do manuallly.

 

I prefer manual. I hated the auto one on my '03 and now my '05.

Just buy one that is for a 03+ Accord or '99+ TL

 

sorry i shoudlve quoted that guy, i was saying that "i thought auto dimming mirrors dim when you turn on the headlights not when it senses a bright light"
