Default Auto-dimming rear-view mirror

Has anyone put one of those on their S2k? If so please let me know which one and how hard it was to install. Did you get one with a compass? A temp Gauge?

Haven't done it yet, but planning on getting one with "Home Link" on it so that I can get rid of the garage door and electric gate remotes. I believe a shop that installs windshields could install it for a nominal fee.

I found one from Gentex that seems pretty cool. I like to do everything my self if it is possible but at the same time I don't want to screw anything up. Thanks

Thanks for responding. Any suggestions on what to put for searching. I did do a search and spent an hour looking throught the results but could not find anything. You don't by any chance have a link to your instructions?

Thanks again

John

Timely link. Was looking into this as well. Looks like the price has dropped somewhat- $179. now vs. $199.
Would like Homelink but it's an extra $200!

Guess the 'ol garage door opener remote will have to do.

Donnelly(oem) also makes temp/compass mirrors. I put one in our Odyssey and they're the Honda OEM for the Pilot mirror accessory as well. Good stuff. A web search will yield sources for purchasing.

Thanks for posting.

I really wish one of the vendors here could put a 'plug and play' kit together for this item.

I am sure they would sell a lot of them, if it wasen's such a custom job.
