  • One Gripe

    What was the deal with GM chincing out on a Electrichromatic Rearview (self-dimming) mirror for the SS guys? I am pretty sure that the other Bu's have em, the Aura's I'm sure probably do to. Wonder if they were kind enough to leave the wiring up there, so we can just plug n play! Anyone?

    No idea, even my mom's 96 Camry has one. I wouldn't mind having one, but honestly I've got other stuff higher on the list.

          Who needs an auto dimming rear view mirror if you have dark tints!!

          Unfortunately, there are a lot of little options GM left off on our Bu's....like the "Oh Shit" Handles!!

            Hmm, I have those in the back, just not one on the front passenger's side. Must be a Maxx thing?

                me = 6' 3"
                gf who drives every other day = 5' 0"

                that little switchy thingy is really useful, just press it up or down and it switches for the two of us


                but i did enjoy the auto-dimmer, had it on my 02 altima and it was about the only nice thing about it

                  You can easily add your own, but I feel your pain.

                  I love the one I added though, so it turned out ok.
