Was is hard to install the power mirror ..do you have some pics ?
BTW...Nice car!!:thumbup:
Not bad for a $6 clear red paint ... Lol .
The rear view mirror installation was pretty easy. Just opened the door panels and remove 3 bolts then swapped them with the motorized one.
Took me about an hour to install them.

so we have to swap the entire mirror ?
Yup.. Get a replacement off eBay for both side, $49/ piece ... N then also get the Toyota camry Mirror switch... Make sure u buy the one with the rectangular faceplate. You can still use the original back cover for the mirror ... Pull the top Part first for the cover ... Pretty much it :)

what year is it? i can't tell for sure but it looks like the tails arent flush with the bumper. if it is i'm sorry i'm dumb. but i'm asking because the pics that garm put up of the 08 tails on the 09 are really close up and its hard to tell what it would look like if you were just looking at the car. so if yours are not flush then it looks good and i want them.
Mine is 08 ... And it's flush follows the bumper line .
It Look good considering the cost is a third of the OEM , but off course I did the reseal the gap before painting them.

and the connector in the back fit with the connector from the mirror ?
are the mirror aftermarket...not OEM ?
the connector is already there behind the empty switch cover, and the mirrors I got are made by TYC ..but they're the oem replacement . for less than $100/pr , it's a good buy for me :tongue:

do you have a pic of the connector behind the switch cover :O I didn'T saw this :O
I don't have the picture of it . When I took the cover out, the connector was there. Try to look again... It maybe hiding behind all the cable out there .

oh alright lol my bad
my 08 HB is comes prewired for the electric mirror ... the replacement mirrors is also prewired. so all I had to do was open the door panel, hooked up the wire from the replacement mirror to the connector behind the door panel ..white color connector, attached on the metal door , you wont miss it. and then connect the mirror switch to the ready to use connector behind the empty switch panel.
hope that helps :thumbup:

The mirror wire was in the door or in the car(near the fuse box) ?
Because in my door there is two wire...and those are for the speaker!:confused:
Thanks:w00t:
the mirror connector is in the door on my hb. the speaker connector should be behind the speaker right ??
here's what the mirror connector on the door look like:
