Plug-and-play baby! Dimmer is auto, compass is COOL
|
|
Cons:
|
none!

Mirror is awesome! The car is wired for it, you just hook it on to the hanger, which is already glued to the windshield, plug it in, and calibrate it by driving around in circles til it stops flashing. I almost ran over a squirel during the calibration... awwwwww The compass is pretty cool, I've never had one before, so I'm not used to relying on it; but it is nice to have. I think it might be the only thing close to a "luxury" item on my WRX... haha I just wish it had the outside temp, thats my only gripe. But I am totally glad I bought it, regardless of the temp thing.

Pros:

Very Nice to have
|
|
Cons:
|
none, except for maybe a few ounces of weight
|
|
It is a very nice thing to have so that you don\'t have to constantly get blinded or continue to flip the little switch thing on a normal mirror from time to time.

Don\'t get this as an option. As with almost anything, it is cheaper elsewhere. It shows you the direction you are going, and it dims to bright headlights.
Super simple install

Pros:
|
great look, functional, easy install, no blindness
|
|
Cons:
|
none so far
|
|
thing is right on the money. Great fit and finish. Easy install because all wrx come wired for it. Should just be a standard feature for a $25k plus car but that\'s besides the point.
I dig it. Don\'t pay the dealer price. Get it some place else and put it in yourself. (Like most dealer options..haaa)

Another mandatroy OEM accessory

The auto-dimmer makes night driving so much better. Once you get used to it, driving without an auto-dimmer seems downright archaic!

Great product, helpful when online maps say go north on a street w/o telling you which way to turn
|
|
Cons:
|
none
|
|
Great addition to the WRX. Dimming is quick and works great. No problems at all. Definately worth buying, and since there's power going there, I was able to power my V1 off the same line.

Came from the factory both times
|
|
Cons:
|
WRX one broke but was fixed under warranty
|

Must have. Don't buy the car without it. Get a car that had it installed at the factory. Very useful.
