It might be power for auto switching the mirror from day to night mine does. It also has a button to turn it off. Does yours have a button on it. Or some sort of light sensor on it.

I just noticed today that there is a small electrical cable running to the in cab rear vision mirror, but can't find any switches.

Whatsitfor???

I believe it feeds a small heater element in the mirror to act as a demister. The spec lists for many, particularly later model M35's list rear vision mirrors demisters as a standard feature. Whether that's internal or exterior mirrors, I can't say.

I think the Heater element might be the answer.

There is a switch under the mirror but it seems to be purely mechanical and I can,t see any sensors or switches to turn it on and off.

What stag. What size and offset are your rims?

its probably a wire for the factory security system. i have mine still on the car. i really should remove it!

did you get a key fob with a remote start function on it?

No remote start key. Just a keyless entry key.

I have remote start... and I have wires too... no friggin idea what they are for...?

Why would we have a heater element for an internal mirror?

Incase someone leaves their windows down on a frosty/winter night... I've done it ;):) Got in the car next morning inside windows and mirror frosted over haha

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      By sonicii · Posted

      Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.

      You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛

      Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.

      That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together

      I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it.
