I was speaking on my driver side mirror (left side) so that would explain why there is not warning on it (not convex).

As far as the clicking goes, that is very abnormal to me as none of my previous cars made that noise (atleast not at audible levels) including a '91 subaru legacy sport, '88 Porsche 944, or a '97 Prelude SH.

Good question redrum, and if we get a jdm left mirror that is convex... will it give us a better field of vision that covers our blindspot???

And yes xviper, that is exactly what this room is about, the questions no one cares to ask even though others may have the same ones.

If you get the JDM one that Australia gets, it will be convex and it won't have any words on it. Muz sells them here.

Oh, and yes, it wipes out the blind spot problem. Crucial mod in my opinion.

It is very normal for this car to have such a loud intermittent wiper timer click.

I'm glad you have a sense of humour about this.

Yep helps with blind spot, I'm seriously considering it. That left side blind spot is scary.

And yes, its not you, I believe that I have heard the intermitent wiper click. Ofcourse this is where xviper goes "HA, the discontinued the wiper actuator nut in MY05 so you're hearing things", but I'm used to it.

I am here to entertain and to inform, plus look! one good mod has already come out of it, we should all get jdm left side mirrors!!!

Either way I'm sure I'll think of more of these questions in the next few days (work gets mighty boring, and the drive gets slow with the rain).

I'm all for this. Besides, this is music to Muz's ears.

Another random Question:

Do MY02's have a factory alarm? I didn't think mine did then I opened the trunk once without unlocking the center console compartment and the horn started blaring!

There is a honda factory alarm, as well as many aftermarket alarms that can tie into your factory remote entry. I had one on my car, but I decided to remove it since I am in a safe area and the horn was put in a bad place (it was rubbing against the abs lines in the engine bay).
