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 ;)

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..

    • The trigger kit I have is similar to the one in the link below. While going through Facebook, I saw someone else mention a similar issue, and I’m starting to think this could be related to the crank gear itself. I understand these parts are CNC machined, but maybe some earlier versions or individual pieces might have slight inconsistencies—it just doesn’t look right in my case. https://www.facebook.com/share/16an8evZd9/?mibextid=wwXIfr I originally installed the crank gear using the thin OEM washer, but as shown in the attached photo, the timing belt walks very close to the edge. When I tried using a Nitto washer—which is thicker—it actually made the issue worse. The belt walks about 1mm off the front edge, which raises more concern about alignment.   I’ve gone through the full process of elimination:   The tensioner pulley and bolt are brand new and installed correctly. The bolt isn’t bent and is oriented properly. The back of the tensioner and the idler pulley are clean and seated correctly. The idler sits slightly more forward, which I understand is due to its design. I’ve experimented with both tight and loose belt tension, but it makes no difference. As soon as the engine runs, the belt immediately walks forward again—even if I reset it beforehand.     At this point, I’m considering replacing the crank gear with your Race Version 1 (12-tooth), but before purchasing, I wanted to ask:   Are you aware of any alignment issues when using this gear? Would this gear help keep the belt aligned correctly, or could the walking still occur? Does it work with a standard missing-tooth crank and rear washer? Is there any specific crank setup or install procedure required?     For reference, I’m not using a front washer, as the PRP crank gear seems to replace the need for one.   Looking forward to your advice.
    • Yep, looks that way. Never driven an E30 or R31 so I can only imagine
