Hi everyone

I recently purchased a Genuine second hand auto reflex dimming mirror (pictured)

Just wondering if anyone can help with how to wire it up? Does someone already have one they can look at or is there a wiring diagram out there? I don't mind if it is in Japanese.

thanks

I fitted one into mine. It's a walk in the park.

Remove the trim around the window and run the loom down to your cigarette lighter. The loom you have patches in behind it.

If you want to sell it off, I know someone who's looking for one ;)

Hi Scott

Thanks for the reply, do you know which wires are which though? I believe 2 are for power, dunno bout the other 2??

HI Adam

It has taken me 7 years to find this one, but if I find another it's yours! :yes:

some or one wire will need to go to the sensor for the auto headlights ;)

Pulled out the console and as Scott said it just plugged straight into the back of the cig lighter. (it turns out there were only 2 wires, pwr & earth).

But what I really wanna know is how the hell you get the A pillar cover off without snapping it in two?? Anyone got any tricks or secrets?

Thanks

Sorry for the late reply. Head down to AutoOne or Repco and buy yourself a interior trim remove tool kit. I bought a Kincrome kit and they are excellent. 5 claw like tools along with trim button removal fork. With the trims you want to pull from the top and towards the centre of the car. They will pop off. start from above the B pillar (after you remove the seat belt) and work forwards.

no way, didn't realise it had its own sensor. That's different than what i used to installing.

Push the height adjust buttons in and while they are compressed pull the cover off that's around it. Behind that covers is a nut that you need to remove (think its a 13 socket) then the seat belt will be able to drop down and your can pop off the a pillar.

Tho you don't need to remove the pillar to wire up the mirror. I fitted mine today without removing the pillar.

I just removed the grab handle and popped to clips on the a pillar and fed the wire thru and down to the Ecu then removed the glovebox and tracked the cable to the cig lighter.

Thanks Jonny, I was going by the FAST diagram which shows the wire on the driver's side but I don't think one side would be any different to the other.

Thanks again, going back in November so let me know if you need any more bits..

    • My apologies. I forgot we were talking about weird beard M series stuff. Had been talking elsewhere with someone about an R33 with similar subject and got confused.
    • Nope, I don't like the look of ND RF, or any ND really, I don't like their faces or arses, why, because of their "modern" lines, the NC, whilst "modernish" has a more rounded shape that I like Well, that's how my overly judgemental eyes see it anyway  
    • Should be more than fine, especially the overall fuel pressure would never exceed 3.5bar (assuming that thing never gets more than 0.5bar of boost in stock form). According to the chart, it's 11amps.
    • I definitely know the first rule here, look first, ask second. I've seen many people get roasted 😂 I found a few diagrams for the RB, but I'm yet to come across one for the VQ. From what I have read, the pump gets the +12v along with the FPCM, and it's the negative wire that gets passed through the resistor to regulate the voltage. So I assume I can just ground the negative wire at the pump to eliminate the FPCM control. But I really wanted to see the VQ circuit diagram first to make sure I understood it correctly. Once the new pump is in I'll do some testing to see how it behaves, and in the meantime, I'll keep looking for a wiring diagram. Thanks for your help mate, your time is greatly appreciated.    
    • Maybe? I have the Supercheap ToolPro low thingo. It has a somewhat smaller diameter lifting "bowl" than you would expect on a workshop grade trolley jack, and a split rubber pad to suit that diameter. It clears the "N1" style skirts I have. Probably wouldn't if the jack's bowl and a suitably larger rubber block were in use. Having said that though.....you only need the rubber block to exist on the inner side of the pinchweld, so could carve away any rubber that fouled the skirt, leaving some there for "insurance" </simples>
