got the camry power mirrors switch and installed the power mirrors , then spray painted the replica jdm clear rs tails to red one

couldn't wait for the real one to come ...so I pulled the trigger and bought the replicas

...oh well

the cruise control and the rear trunk actuator would be next

Betrivent · 09-08-2011, 11:58 PM

Nice, they look authentic to the unknowing observer

packetrace · 09-09-2011, 07:18 AM

Was is hard to install the power mirror ..do you have some pics ?

BTW...Nice car!!

vten · 09-09-2011, 10:43 AM

Not bad for a $6 clear red paint ... Lol .

The rear view mirror installation was pretty easy. Just opened the door panels and remove 3 bolts then swapped them with the motorized one.
Took me about an hour to install them.

packetrace · 09-09-2011, 08:51 PM

so we have to swap the entire mirror ?

vten · 09-09-2011, 09:30 PM

Yup.. Get a replacement off eBay for both side, $49/ piece ... N then also get the Toyota camry Mirror switch... Make sure u buy the one with the rectangular faceplate. You can still use the original back cover for the mirror ... Pull the top Part first for the cover ... Pretty much it :)

packetrace · 09-09-2011, 09:34 PM

Thanks you!! :D probably do it soon! :D

catliektheif · 09-10-2011, 03:12 AM

what year is it? i can't tell for sure but it looks like the tails arent flush with the bumper. if it is i'm sorry i'm dumb. but i'm asking because the pics that garm put up of the 08 tails on the 09 are really close up and its hard to tell what it would look like if you were just looking at the car. so if yours are not flush then it looks good and i want them.

vten · 09-12-2011, 03:20 PM

Mine is 08 ... And it's flush follows the bumper line .

It Look good considering the cost is a third of the OEM , but off course I did the reseal the gap before painting them.

vten · 09-20-2011, 09:40 AM

packetrace · 09-20-2011, 03:35 PM

and the connector in the back fit with the connector from the mirror ?

are the mirror aftermarket...not OEM ?

vten · 09-22-2011, 12:41 AM

the connector is already there behind the empty switch cover, and the mirrors I got are made by TYC ..but they're the oem replacement . for less than $100/pr , it's a good buy for me

packetrace · 09-22-2011, 07:23 AM

do you have a pic of the connector behind the switch cover :O I didn'T saw this :O

vten · 09-22-2011, 09:36 AM

I don't have the picture of it . When I took the cover out, the connector was there. Try to look again... It maybe hiding behind all the cable out there .

packetrace · 09-22-2011, 10:45 AM

So youj connect this connector to the switch...and where do you connect the mirro wire ?

sorry for all those question !

oh alright lol my bad

vten · 09-22-2011, 11:18 AM

my 08 HB is comes prewired for the electric mirror ... the replacement mirrors is also prewired. so all I had to do was open the door panel, hooked up the wire from the replacement mirror to the connector behind the door panel ..white color connector, attached on the metal door , you wont miss it. and then connect the mirror switch to the ready to use connector behind the empty switch panel.

hope that helps
