has anybody tried removing the side mirrors?? in favor of auto dimming ones??? i really hate non diming mirrors. most of my privious cars were dimming. i MUST do something about this.

Inside rearview mirror? Or outside?Inside, yes - several of us here, myself included, have installed different types of electrochromic mirrors. Like you, I'm not fond of mirrors that do not dim themselves. If you're talking about the inside mirrors, here's one good howto here:http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=7735And a picture of the one installed in my car: A set of auto dimming mirrors for the outside do not exist, as far as I know. I've looked, but nothing... Not available as an option for either Vibe or Matrix, nor have I ran across any aftermarket mirrors. That's a bummer, since I do have problems with glare from the outside mirrors at night. Hope this helps, but it probably won't if you're like me and want a set of auto dimming side mirrors.

yes, the outside ones. i've got a set of 00 town and country rear view mirror coming my way sometime this week. 30$ shipped. they have outside mirror control. i saw a drivers side auto dimming mirror on e-bay. it's for a ls 430. i asked the guy what the dimensions are. no reply yet, but if close enough... i'll jimmy rig something.

yea, i gotta believe a set for another car would work, but havent gotten that far. maybe you will find it and can enlighten us!

can anybody who knows, post directions on how to remove side mirrors.thinking about painting them.
