Auto dim mirror with compass and temp
From another thread:

You got me thinking. How's this look?: http://www.autodimmingmirrors.com/ne...ntex-/c_1.html You need to run wiring up from below the dash and a wire through the firewall for the temp and compass probe. They sell mounting brackets and wire covers (for the little wire that runs from the headliner to the mirror. I kind of like the GENK31. Who wants to be first? |

As a longtime user of the Gentex mirrors, I must say that I love them, I have auto-dimming mirrors stock in the I30 and so this is kind of a must for me in the Yaris, I'm going to be getting one of the units with compass/temp and homelink, GENK50

I prefer the Donnelly Autodimming Temp/Compass mirror. I have been using the same mirror in 4 different cars since 2000 and it is still going strong. The Temp/Compass display is in the bottom of the mirror casing so it does not take up any realstate on the mirror itself. Looks more professional.

Does any body know how hard it would be to hook up one of the Magna Donnelly rain sensing mirrors? Looks interesting.
