And someone said that they wouldn't "cut any corners"

Who needs manual mirrors? Lol, set them once and you're done. The power mirrors are wired into the door harness, so it's wired for them I would just need to plug in the switches and bolt the mirrors in.

sure it does, they look beautiful.

hey sov, when you did the power door conversion for your car, did you also change the manual sideview mirrors to power also??? my friend said he'd sell me his type r sidemirror from his ex, but i don't know if i could make it work with my dx hatch. i read your write up on the conversion, but i didn't see anything about the sidemirrors.

if you wanted to you could add just the power mirrors without doing the entire conversion. you just need everything in the picture below. i just ran my own wire from the switch to the mirrors cuz the wire colors at the mirrors are exactly the same as at the switch, then ya just gotta run an ignition for powerand ground it. also i have a service manual thats got all the wiring diagrams in it so i knew the color codes.

ya i did it so that i could have the tweeter on the inside of the mirror cuz im an audio nut.and its really not hard to wire everything up, the hardest part is runing the wires through the grommet and hose from the door to the body. and if you want the wire schematic let me know and ill put it up.

and sov how long is it gonna be till the paint is done?

It's a 99-00, it won't fit right with the 96-98 body I have on right now...

I'm still waiting for stuff to come in before I can paint. It's up in the air until then, of course I start school on Wed so that makes things REAL easy for me...
