So are you getting the heated option?

Are you legally allowed to remove, blank out and paint the original side indicators positions to make it look factory?

Hmmm. That seller also has some available for my Aurion. I am so tempted now to get a set.

Would be good if you can close on demand.

Useful when going thru a narrow alley.

Looks like with this, you'll need to turn your car off so that the side mirror closes and then push the car thru the alley ....

I would say that with a simple little modification to the wiring, you can make it close on demand. Would be p** easy to do as well.

The module has a 3sec delay on folding/unfolding. if you put a switch probably a good idea to somehow remove that delay

They are a JDM option if you want to go that path

On a different note the Ford Tarus had switchable folding mirrors (I did not own it belonged to a friend, honest)

lol have it to ignition just put a switch in it, when u go through your 'alley' lol flick the switch which so mirror thinks car is turned off.. ,

if they work i might get a pair, would you be leaving the indicator in the mirror?? might be abit weird to have the blinker on the side and mirror?

Yeh they still fit the facelift fine! The shape of the mirror is just prefacelift shape so it's a bit curvier and not so square on the inside edge of it. They come with plugs on them but u have to rewire I popped the plug outer off and put the outer off my original mirrors on and then had to swap the wires around in the plug, so if your looking at the plug on the mirror from the wire side with the two pins to the top and three pins to the botom the top left wire shoul be black, bottom left is the red wire and top right is the other wire, remove the two wires that are cut off completely, will post pics later today, I still have to hook up my folding and indicators. They are slower than the stock ones when u r adjusting them I have noticed, but look sweet in the black match my tinting really well might not even paint them white yet.......

      1996 Trueno XZ - Is it worth modding?

      Hi everyone, new member to the group and owner driver of a nifty little Toyota Sprinter Trueno XZ, now this was my cousins car, I bought it off him and after various drives, I have come to the decision that this needs alot of love. Now I am wondering if its worth putting my time and money into doing this certain make n model up or should I just buy a different car to do up? I am not very car-inclined so I really don't know a lot. Any opinions would be very helpful Thankful!

      Android auto

      OK. Does any of Toyota's advertising material mention Android Auto? If so then kick up a stink, with Toyota management, about misrepresentation and false advertising, reminding them of the hefty fines. Herb

      1999 Camry Driver's door locking hatch issue

      It's possible that it could be something fouling or dirt build up, dry, or a broken mechanism, so have a look and give the mechanism some lubrication, most likely though, it'll be the actuator. I found one for a good price on Ebay, $25 delivered: Front Door Lock Actuator Right Side For Toyota Camry 1997-2001 | eBay

      Query about the correct rotors for 2006 ACV40 Camry.

      Hi, I'm looking at a set of front rotors for an ACV40 2006, 2.4L Camry. I got a good price on some RDA's at Sparesbox. However both RDA8112 and RDA7686 show as for my car and I'm wondering what the difference is and if there were changes to the rotors during the model production. So does anyone know which rotor is the correct one? Many thanks in advance.

      Android auto

      It's a simple solution though? Already laying down 60k for a RAV4, so what's another 1k on a phone to make everything work seamlessly? 👍

      Your solution is akin to suggesting that switching to a different car manufacturer would resolve the issue. However, not everyone shares the same enthusiasm for using an iPhone as you do.
