Hi everyone,

I'm going to do a retrofit on my car for the High beam assist and dimming rearview mirror.

I already bought and have the dimming rearview mirror with the fla camera to install, but first i've been trying to get the maximum information on how to do it, because for what it looks like, i will have to get some wires to the rearview mirror plug before i can install it.

In the moment, i just have installed the regular rearview mirror with the alarm led.

Does someone already done this retrofit? or know where to get some info on how to do it? (where to get the signal to the wires i have to send to the rearview mirror)

Thanks in advance to everyone who reads and tries to help!

Best regards

Hi,

Did you ever complete this retrofit? I'd like to do the same, but am unsure how to proceed. Is it just plug-and-play, or is dealer coding required? Did you need any other parts besides the mirror?

Thanks for any info.

^Thanks for the info, but that's a slightly simpler retrofit as it doesn't include the FLA mirror which controls the High Beam Assist.
