I always thought that the Canadian ones were ONLY heated and the Type R ones were ONLY power fold. Since I thought the heated ones were of more use to me, I was thinking of getting a set of Canadian ones. Are you guys SURE that the Type R ones are both heated and power folding?

Last time I talked with SSUSA(Chuck) they were fitting Spoon Style CF mirrors that are power glass not power fold.

u = wrong

USDM = power adjusting and manual fold
CDM = Power adjustting , heated and manual fold
JDM/UK = Power adjusting & Power folding...


Carry on

Yeah I was wondering that too, if the heated mirrors from Cananda and the JDM ones can be put together so i could have power adjusting, folding, and heated... do you think?

Yeah, I thought about putting the heater element into the mirrors but I'd like to have separate switches controlling the fold and heat without relocating one of them off of the mirror switch. I'm pretty sure that the heater button and the fold button are in the same position on the mirror switch so either one has to go...

thanks for the info guys. i might give the CF spoon style mirrors a shot if they come down in price any in the near future. i believe SS said something about them being a very limited quantity. probibly why the price was so high.

If you want those, why don't you just get some CDM ones? They're power adjust, heat, and manual fold, too.

As far as I know the the 30AE cars don't have the folding mirros but the UKDM cars and the ones on mainland Europe do have slightly different specs so i'm not sure so if he was from Europe rather than the UK then it might?

X - do you know how the shop wired up your mirrors to fold? did they incorporate the switch or just wire them in to fold when you car is turned off? Anyother info you have about them would be helpful. thanks.

i had them wire it to the ignition
but due to my NE region winters
i had them put in a cutoff switch so say if its gonna show and ice the next day
i can shut them off so they wont fold off and on the next time the car is started etc etc

as for the install

the shop did all the work i can give you the persons # that actually DID the install but it wasnt that difficult i heard

just got done installing mine, used JDM switch and JDM harnesses. We used the JDM relay pack/timed latching relay. It's isn't as easy everyone thinks to do it correctly with all the JDM parts, because you need the JDM driver side window switch/jdm relay to control both the mirrors.

Button IN,Car off=mirrors fold in
Button Out,car off=mirrors stay out
Button IN,Car turned on=mirrors fold out
Button Out,Car turned off=mirrors stay folded out

Will post a vid as soon as I can
