i would think the wiring for that kinda job would be a tremendous pain the ***. I wouldnt do it, also it might look very tacky with frankenstein interior, just put the garage door opener in the glove box on in the door pocket

Do they have more than one available? Link please. I might upgrade my older GENK30 model (same thing without homelink).

BTW, if anyone wants to go with this option you need to be sure to get the GENK60 (w/homelink) or GENK30 (w/o homelink) model because the others don't come with map lights.

Default visors

yes the vette vissors are hard wired and the f-bodys are not. have you priced them vette visors with homelink? try corvettesalvage.com there usually the cheapest place to get vette parts. i just got a set of 2000 vette side mirrors i'm putting on my trans am. but when you price them visors i think you'll see it's about the same price as the gentek mirror except the mirror will look factory
