you sure? my cousin might have been on under my name.

anyway. ok. pull out your stock mirror switch. match it up to the jdm one. you will notice that the jdm one has 2 extra wires, one white, one blue. get a pin pusher, and put those 2 wires into the usdm connecter. put the jdm switch in the usdm connector. run a blue wire from the switch through the dash, then split it and run it to both mirrors. do the same with the green wire. bam, your done. its easy, the hardest part is getting the wires through the door jam and running them through the dash board. make sure that you zip tie the door wires to the existing wiring harness so they dont get tangled in your window when it goes up and down.

late, mike

Youll need the JDM mirrors. The US dont have the motor to rotate them.
