Installed a GM auto dim mirror with compass and temp tonite - there's no going back, because I had to change the windshield mount. The OEM mirror is now for sale. Perfect condition - $10 - shipping included in the US. Pay Pal me at raquethomas@insightbb.com if you want it.
Sounds like an interesting tweak....might be interested in doing that myself. What about the mount is different?
What was the part number of your new one and what did it cost you?
....sT
Our mount is specific - as far as I have been able to determine - only Isuzu mirrors fit the mount. Had to graft a more standard US mount on there to get the autodim mirror from an Envoy to fit, bought it off eBay for $25.
Are you including the mounting post?
can you tell us how it was removed ? and the whole 9 yard
To remove the factory mirror, you grasp the base and twist it counter clockwise, this unsnaps it from the windshield mount. It may seem like it is going to break - but don't worry, it will not. Installation is just the reverse.Quote:

Yes, the mounting post is there as well. The only thing I do not have is the part that is glued to the windshield.
how hard was it to put the Envoy one ? Can one person do it ?
You don't need any assistance. Just JB Weld a new mirror mount over the old one (Thank you TONE for that idea!), run the wires, and hang it.
Sold
Hey Raque Thomas, how about a pic of the new mirror and what the hell is JB Weld?:confused:
How's the temp work? Did you run an external sensor?
BTW, nice option!
