    Gotta love this car, I mean just simple jdm/oem cleaness! Everything on this car is clean right down to the roof rack that just gives it an even more of a different style! Keep it up!!!

        thanks for complements yo!

        update!

        after selling 2 sets of them in the past, i finally have a set for myself. today i installed my power folding mirrors. we all know how rare it is to find coupe PFM so i had to jump at the opportunity. i don't have pics of the actual mirrors on the car but you can use your imagination. here are some from the auction:





        the paint looked good in the pics. when i received it, they placed tape all over the housings to protect the mirrors so when i removed the tape, the paint went with it! bah i didn't plan on repainting it so i guess i have to now.

        the install took me 6hrs but it was very straightforward. yes that is a long time but i like to tuck all my wires neatly. finding a position for the relay was hard too. i solder all my joints and use heat-shrink.

        overall i haven't taken it for a ride yet but just from backing out of the driveway, i noticed a huge difference (duh!). i almost hit my dad's pilot. it'll take some getting used to but they fold in now with a touch of a button. sweet!

                  Hey Tim,

                  Do you happen to have any pictures of the install? I've been trying to figure out how to put the wires through the door jams neatly. I know you're good at all that wiring stuff.

                    I love this car. It is the only Rosewood Brown one that I have seen that doesn't look BROWN!

                    I especially like the JDM authenticity. You seem to work very hard to get the correct parts for your car.

                    Keep us posted.

                        J-specCb4: yeah you're right. i've been driving around for a bit and already they seem normal. i was trying to switch over the glass to USDM but that didn't work out since the internals are very different. oh well .

                        sublime: yeah they are rare so i had to buy it even if it was a bit steep in price; over $200!

                        uncle_el: hope to see you soon elliot. get your car fixed already unless you are getting too comfortable with that 330ci .

                        PRIMOCB7: yeah it's actually that grey color but close enough. they don't look that nice since the paint came off when i removed the packaging tape. i'll try and spraypaint it temporarily.

                        AccordWarrior: unfortunately i didn't take any pics. i couldn't pass the wires through the factory loom b/c it's enclosed and deep within the fender. i would need to remove the fender just to fish the wires in. so i just ran the two wires from behind the door panel and jumped them into the lower dash directly. it's kinda ghetto but it works and doesn't get in the way. you can see it clearly when the door is open (kinda tacky) but it works. the relay is mounted in the door just to the right of the middle grabhandle bracket. i'll take pics again when i remove the panel to install another switch (my current one is scratched up).

                        owequitit: thanks! i hated my color at first but i grew fond of it. finding parts for a coupe is always a mission but that's what makes it fun!

                        AirRide Accord: i hope to see your car in person damien. you're only a hop, skip, and jump away from me. i'm in chino!
