SUPRA4EVA

...and Anyone done one? How much needs changing out/modding: 1. as in bare minimum for it to function? 2. for a total conversion as if it shipped with it? Does it need a "specialist" to set up or is it plug and play? Is it cheaper just buying a VVTi car? lol

I know forums can go offline for maintenance but this one does it so often now. It already seems pretty dead sadly but these drop outs must make it even harder to jump on.

So I've got the 2 motor wires in place from the doors to the dash mirror retract switch and I have a location for a ground down in the foot well [G1]. I now need a power source, which I should be able to get from the [1E plug/pin 2/L-R wire] I checked for a 12V source when turned to ACC and I got around 12V, so I just need to splice into it now. Question is, it runs thru the 15A CIG fuse (most right under driver's side) and I saw a post/pic from evinX where there is a 5A fuse added... Do I need that 5A fuse if I'm already tapped into the 15A CIG one? Not got much knowledge of electrics but seem a little low for a fuse for this? The way the manual for those mirrors shows it is Blue/Red wire goes thru that 1E plug Pin 2 and there is a 15A fuse there. Just wanted to confirm how I should do it? Ref "JDM" electrical manual P30 & 53.

Wow, I thought this would be the hardest part but it turned out to be the easiest. Sure enough, once you peel back the carpet there's so much room there, glad they did that! Getting the tape off the looms and trying to get the wire thru the doors was another story...

Yeah that's right. As long as it's concealed I don't mind too much. So the dash won't have to be removed? I had a look at the driver's side well and it looks like there's space at the bottom (tunnel area) but right now I can't access the passenger side so can't tell 100%.

Thanks for confirming. I was able to swing the door out more and it certainly helps. Also, do you know how easy it's to get wire from the passenger side to the drivers side or vice versa? I forgot to take a look in case there was a big hole under the dash...I hope there is lol

I need to feed some wires thru the door loom and it looked possible but it keeps catching in the loom so I gave up for the day... Can I remove the pin from the stopper and 1. swing the door out more to allow me to remove the bellows for better access and 2. put the pin it back on without issues? Or am I better unbolting it?

Anyone have a tip on how to remove the heated mirror glass from the housings? Also anyone know the part number for these?

I'm looking to do this on my UK spec. I have the retract mirrors (tested with a battery and working) and the OEM switch. I forgot the UK spec mirrors were heated too so my original plan of simply switching the wires in the male plug won't work. So did you have to transfer the heated mirrors/wires into the retract housing? Also how hard was it to get the orange and pink retract motor wires to the switch location? I was planning to reuse my head lamp washer switch location.

Hmm didn't see this post...molex as in the old skool pc fan plug? Well I got the 5 pin male plug with my retract mirrors and I assume my UK mirror/loom will also be 5 pin plugs with 3 wires...or I can re pin it if it's a 9 pin plug, which I doubt. So I just need the 82998-12650 female repair wire type 1.3. Trouble is they cost like £50 for 1 strand and i need 4 for the retract motors!! F that! Is there an alternative or aftermarket number for those female terminals? There is also a hole plug 90980–09414 but it's discontinued.

Yeah I've been going thru some of the electrical manuals as I'd like to retofit some mirrors I've had for years and there is a 5pin and 9 pin plug in the manual. But it suggest the two plugs were offered on early models, depending on what you had. Question is why didn't they just offer a 7pin plug in all the looms and use 3 - 5 -7 wires are required? lol How have these mirrors been working you? I heard they're unreliable and break.

This is exactly what I was looking for Parts catalog only has a dozen or so in it, so was wondering where they were hiding the rest! Thanks

Trying to track down some mirror plugs (M/F) but I don't know the p/n or if they still make them. Is there a list of all the plugs used on the car?

Anyone replaced their UK Spec 2nd cat recently? The part is discontinued but US/JDM spec are available. Are they compatible?

I taken apart a set of motorized retract mirrors to retrofit at some point...but I've heard they are not reliable and break.
