Awesome mod. Thanks guys!

Can you share the part numbers you ordered? I find I'm getting more and more pissed off every time I have to reach in my glovebox to open the garage and this mirror looks fantastic.

And presto. What an easy thing to do. The video above is clutch. Thank you all.

Reading all these mirror upgrade posts…. I was thinking I needed an autodimming mirror, no need for the homelink in my case so Ive been searching for a type-s takeoff. I was all set to buy one only to realize the fl5 has a manual dimming mirror. That works good enough for me.

I'd be ok to row my own mirror
I did need the homelink though.

PNs are in the OP. If you order from college hills Honda, you order the mirror and the harness is a check box with no listed number - until you get the confirmation email.

Thanks for confirming. Items on the way!

Did the same mod today! Took me about an hour. Absolutely love it. Might be a dumb mod to some lol but not only does frameless look better, no more keeping a garage door opener in car. Plus it’s auto dimming. It’s great that it’s also plug and play. No wire splicing.

This was incredibly helpful - thank you!

Blendmount is a very tight fit.

I had to use https://blendmount.com/aluminum-rad...den-r1-r3-r4-dfr8-dfr9-specialty-3017-series/

Notice the mount touching the plastic trim piece has a felt to prevent rattles.

This is how I got power that was switched.

Is there a way to use a "mirror-tap" cable for a radar detector WITHOUT installing the Homelink mirror? I just picked up my 23 CTR yesterday, and just left the adhesive mount for my RD and the mirror tap cable in my trade because I was struggling to get the trim off the mirror/camera assembly on my Golf R. I didn't want to break anything so I threw in the towel and just let the dealer deal with it. I was going to order another adhesive mount and cable, but now I am not sure that there is a connector to tap into (even in the map light area)?

Don't believe there is power there...they may be from the emergency services button, but not sure, but that may be on all the time, you'll need an ignition source. You could just buy the Honda harness for the mirror, or buy the radar hardwire kit, and make it easy

Just use a long power lead and run it along the same path then use a fuse tap or jumper once your line is down to the fuse box below the dash. I have a Valentine and their hard wire kit has everything you would need including, I believe, the long power lead.

Did you just slot the negative tap into the square where the wire was? I’m having issues getting the negative tap to go in. It seems like there‘s not any room for even the smallest one to fit in there.

Just installed this, anyone feel like the home link mirror doesn’t clip on as strong as the original one? (Those 4 prongs holding the mirror onto the base)
