Hi everyone

I recently purchased a Genuine second hand auto reflex dimming mirror (pictured)

Just wondering if anyone can help with how to wire it up? Does someone already have one they can look at or is there a wiring diagram out there? I don't mind if it is in Japanese.

thanks

I fitted one into mine. It's a walk in the park.

Remove the trim around the window and run the loom down to your cigarette lighter. The loom you have patches in behind it.

If you want to sell it off, I know someone who's looking for one ;)

Hi Scott

some or one wire will need to go to the sensor for the auto headlights ;)

Pulled out the console and as Scott said it just plugged straight into the back of the cig lighter. (it turns out there were only 2 wires, pwr & earth).

But what I really wanna know is how the hell you get the A pillar cover off without snapping it in two?? Anyone got any tricks or secrets?

Thanks

Sorry for the late reply. Head down to AutoOne or Repco and buy yourself a interior trim remove tool kit. I bought a Kincrome kit and they are excellent. 5 claw like tools along with trim button removal fork. With the trims you want to pull from the top and towards the centre of the car. They will pop off. start from above the B pillar (after you remove the seat belt) and work forwards.

no way, didn't realise it had its own sensor. That's different than what i used to installing.

Push the height adjust buttons in and while they are compressed pull the cover off that's around it. Behind that covers is a nut that you need to remove (think its a 13 socket) then the seat belt will be able to drop down and your can pop off the a pillar.

Tho you don't need to remove the pillar to wire up the mirror. I fitted mine today without removing the pillar.

I just removed the grab handle and popped to clips on the a pillar and fed the wire thru and down to the Ecu then removed the glovebox and tracked the cable to the cig lighter.

Thanks Jonny, I was going by the FAST diagram which shows the wire on the driver's side but I don't think one side would be any different to the other.

Thanks again, going back in November so let me know if you need any more bits..

    • Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.
    • DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P
    • As per title.. has anyone used so far? Keen to hear results, comparisons. In the market for a new mani for my new turbo. Any issues cracking?
    • Re read everything that has been written about this in this thread.. Let us know if you're still confused.
    • This would be a new pump with new gears. I'm just unclear on whether it's a good idea to run more oil pump flow if you don't actually need said flow. Oil level is set a minute or so after shutting off a warm engine so wouldn't the high RPM oil level in the sump end up lower all things equal? Plan is OEM clearances, main concern in my mind is whether the OEM pump can keep up with the flow requirements of any additional oil coolers.
