Great Product at a Great Price July 12, 2010
Papatone
This mirror works exactly as advertised and is relatively easy to install. It fit right onto the exisiting window mount of my Toyota Tundra. The only minor diffuculties I had installing the mirror was figuring out how to dismantle the dash, roof liner, and column trim so that I could run the power supply wire down under the dash and temperature sensor wire down under the dash and into the engine compartment. Once all of that was figured out and the interior pieces snapped and screwed back into place, the installation looked clean and professional. I was able to run the temperature sensor through the giant rubber o-ring with main cable harness that goes through the firewall. Be sure to mount the sensor close to the front grill where it will get some air flow as I found out. I didn't have the sensor mounted forward enough on my first attempt which resulted in high temperature readings when the engine got hot (>110 deg). I relocated the sensor right behind the front grill, next to the headlight, and the temperature readings are always right on now. The mirror itself took about 2 minutes to mount, running the wires took me about 2 hours. In addition to the fine temperature and directional readouts, the auto-dimming works great - I am never blinded by headlights at night. Overall it is a Great Product!
Nice. February 8, 2010

Installed on 2010 Mustang GT. The car I got did not have a compass in it and I really wanted to have one. Install went fairly smoothly (about an hour and a half). The hardest part was getting the old mirror off and finding an appropriate wire to tap into.
Overall it works very well. Since I already have an exterior temperature display, I mounted the temp sensor under the dash so I get the interior temperature instead.
Great product! January 11, 2010

I have missed having an Auto Dimming mirror on my MX-5.
After doing research, I found this product. Not only is it auto dimming, but it has the built in compass (nice to have but not necessary) and the temperature readout. (Something I also missed from my RX-8)
I didn't install it myself, as I was unsure of running the wires to the front of my car. I'm really happy with how it works, and how it looks.
If you are thinking of getting one, it's great! I have map lights in my car already, so save some money on the 36500 or the 36501. It works like a charm as far as the auto dim goes.
You won't be disappointed. (Well, i hope you won't!)
Great mirror/temp/compass November 17, 2009

I installed this in my Honda Fit which has no outside temperature gauge. Temperature and compass are accurate and easy to read. In the engine compartment there is a cover over the temp sensor wires, a sort of flexible plastic conduit that is nice. There is no hard plastic cover over the wire between the mirror and headliner, but the conduit covered cables don't look really bad. The mirror dims/undims extremely quickly. It comes with a nice quick disconnect for the power connection at an included inline connector that attaches with pliers.
I think this should have included a hard cover over the cable between the mirror and headliner. Otherwise, it is perfect.
Excellent value on an outstanding item October 11, 2009

I had this same rear view mirror in a previous truck and after I traded vehicles I missed it. I didn't realize how much I relied on it's functions. This unit is the exact duplicate of the one that was installed by the auto manufacturer in my previous vehicle, but it was much less cost than going through the dealership. The directions are clear and easy to follow, all the needed parts are included, and the installation went smoothly. It works perfectly. Unless you've had a mirror with this functionality you don't know what your missing. This is an excellent product at the best price I've found.
