Did these ever get posted? Info/assembly?

Looking to buy one from a '97 GMC Safari mini-van and wondering how it will go?
Thanks.

I installed the GNTX-177 model in my car.
Here's what the wiring looked like:



I suggest if you're buying one make sure to get the pigtail and the temperature sensor with it.
Many mirrors for sale do not come with either of them and it can be a big headache finding the right stuff.

Nice. All my radar detector does is ... detect radar.

I don't see why that would be a problem.
The autodimming feature is the best thing about the rearview mirror.
Why do you think it would be a problem?

Im eyeing that Gentex31 does anyone know if I'll be able to keep the courtesy feature (doors open/dim off) and just normal lights (manually turn on/off)?
