cuz its teh pwn.

i prefer to get out and manually close my sideview mirrors. im old school =P

 

[wwpms6]

because i want them.

 

[wwpms6]

i have read a few places that they are plug and play on the ms6, but haven't been able to find out for sure

 

[Mazdaspeedguy]

I have them on my speed 6. They are close to plug and play other then there is no where to put the switch in the dash. Mine is under the dash.

 

[wwpms6]

so you did ordered yours from speedline?

 

[Mazdaspeedguy]

No got from a member who got them from a groupbuy from other forum. He had bought for his speed3 but could not use them cause the mounting plate is different then the speed 6.

anyone have a proper wiring diagram for these? i have them installed, they work with the switch but i want them to close when i turn the engine off and open when i turn the engine on. currently if i close them with the switch then turn the engine off - the mirrors will open back up. i think i have one or two wires hooked up incorrectly.

Wish I could remember how I wired mine, but it was so long ago. mine open and close when the car is turned on or off. I got mine from a group buy off of another website a while back. They were plug and play but they weren't. The plugs are the same for the MS6, but you need to wire up for power to the mirrors, and tap wires for the under lights and the blinkers. I can't remember all off hand.

 

[xcoldr1cex]

yeah i have the same ones... they were DEFINITELY not PnP. b**** to install.

i think i just have 2 wires wired wrong probably, but i can't seem to find any answers.

Sounds to me like the only mirrors that are truly PnP are the heated ones off the GT models if you only have a sport.

Can someone who has these explain in more detail (or direct me/everyone) on what exactly is required to do these, and where they're available. I'm debating between getting these or heated mirrors, trying to figure out which is more suitable.

 

[freekwonder]

As far as I know with the upgrading to the heated mirrors you just have to run the wires to a source, and from my understanding it comes from the rear window defroster. I can't remember exactly. I don't regret putting the mirrors in. I never got to hide the wires sadly, but my brother has my car right now and is working on that.

VRMS6 did the GT heated mirror swap, and they are a direct PnP install. I was just wondering where you guys tapped for the power source, where the switch was mounted, etc., when you did the folding mirror install.
