This mirror was purchased to replace a factory one that rattled and was worthless at auto dimming. Buying a replacement OEM mirror was not going to happen due to the stupid pricing. Found this one online and due to the low price, wasn't sure if it was going to be any good but wanted to try it anyway. Without a doubt this was the best choice ever. Very easy to install, works awesome, has made me a believer in auto dimming mirrors. Great product at a fantastic price. Thank You!

The service was great! I received the mirror on the date that the service person told me I would receive it and it wasn't hard to install. I love it want buying something on the internet turns out this well. I've had bad experiences with other products over the internet it to bad they can't do business like yours thank you. Estela

The mirror works great at reducing the glare while driving at night. Works just as good or better as the factory mirror.

I ordered this mirror for my 2002 Subaru Outback. The instructions in the kit on how to remove the OEM mirror fail to mention that some of the mirrors are installed by cam-lock. By twisting the whole mirror assembly 90 degrees, it will pop out. Also the kit includes an adapter to use the OEM cam mount but does not include instructions on how to do it. If you are not mechanically inclined or have trouble have someone help you or have a mechanic install it.

I installed in a 2005 Honda Odyssey, replacing the OEM monochromatic mirror. Deciding which 2 of the 3 original wires to use caused much heartache on my part. The documentation included w/ mirror did not adequately label which wire was power and which was ground, necessitating analisys if the poor drawing to determine which wire connected where.
