Default Power folding mirrors

ok i have been on the hunt for these for awhile. i want the REAL deal. i want the ones that actually fold in when you turn the car off and come with the sswitch. people keep trying to sell me the power mirrors which just changes the position of the mirror part. i want folding mirrors. now does anyone know where i can get the real deal?

Did the EF series even have power folding mirrors? I thought only EG and up had them. If so, it might be worth the look. Try www.jdmhondaparts.com, might be a good start.

the problem is...they never made them. only 92+ hondas have power folding mirrors. EFs had power mirrors. and they did fold. but not automatically. they fold by hand. at least i've never seen them. i've taken many many mirrors off EF8s and EF9.

y not get some visions and not hassle with the wiring?

because i don't want visions and if they didn't fold then why the hell do they come with a swith with a button for them to fold in? they made these mirrors, i am not crazy and i want them. jdmhondaprts doesn't sell them. maybe someone located in japan can help me. i really want these mirrors, i have been looking for like 4months now.

i ordered some JDM coners from them and i want the CR-X SiR ones. i didnt know much about the differences or have any pics so they really didnt know what ones i wanted. when i got them they where for a civic. DAMN

point of the story: give pics and LOTS of detail of what you are looking for and from what car, and stuff like that. it will help them and you.

i could be wrong. it could happen. but how do you know that it came off a civic hb? and not a 4door-civic or an integra or accord or prelude? switches can be interchanged but mirrors cant.

the civic corners where $50 each brand new from the honda dealer. but im not sure if they are for a civc hatch or 4door. i need to get teh part #'s of the packages and look into it. that way when i sell them i know what they fit and what they dont. i know one thing though, they dont fit the crx.

Holy Crap Trinity! are those the same ones i sent you a link to?



Ive seen a few jdm crx folding mirrors and believe me, i am not sure if those are them or even the ef ones but 1 thing i do have to say is that on closer inspection, that button is rare as all hell! the regular jdm crx button only has the left/right and toggle buttons, they do not have that extra button to fold the mirrors, the relay that came in japan folds the mirrors automatically. I would email the guy and make sure they fold, if they do, i would jump on it as fast as i would jump on catherine zeta jones! It may be because they are from an older year car but in all honesty i have never seen that button, looks bad ***!

Thuis part is the important part


The relay unit, without it you will never get them to fold properly. I have those exact mirrors on my JDM CRX which I fitted from another JDM CRX I bought for parts. So I can confirm they are the real thing, but my god $240, thats crazy money.

I have looked everywhere to try to find more sets of them coz everyone seems to want them, but even here in Ireland they are bloody rare, very few JDM CRX's had them fitted.

and CRX mirrors dont fit exactly right..

the wiring doesn't bother me, if anything does it is the fact of them atually working after i shell out 300 bucks or more

I dont know what you have to do to get them to fit.

wiring is a bitch.. first off its jdm.

who knows what those short lil ******* thought of when they came up with the color codes for the wiring

( sorry to my ancestors, im tall )

but yeah you have a mess of **** to wire up.

if you ever get them hit me up and ill give you the info you need on it.

warning... i am not liable for you frying yourself or setting your car on fire.

let a experienced mobile electronics specialist do it for you.

btw. i might be lucky to get you a set... we'll play it by ear.
