Mirror Connectors
Hi everyone got some JDM folding mirrors and rather than hard wiring them i would like to try and get some more plugs and make them plug and play....
The problem i have is they come with door mirrors, so im hoping someone might have some damaged mirrors laying there...... lol Heres a picture of the plug, i need two, i dont mind paying but dont want to have to buy two mirrors in order to get them! http://img855.imageshack.us/img855/3...orplugjpeg.jpg |
assuming you have a bugeye you don't need to add any wiring to the mirror plug,all you do is run two wires to the connector block in each footwell from the folding switch and wire it in there.

Wow that was a quick reply....
Yeah i have a bugeye mate, the JDM mirrors however have different connector plugs (Different shape and white in colour) So wouldn't plug straight in anyway. So...... I was gonna remove the white plug from the JDM mirror end of the wire and fit the black connector as seen in the pic. If that makes sense lol Thanks |
ahhh I get yah,
when I did the conversion mine just plugged straight in to old loom and I had to add two wires to make them fold. |
Yeah i see some have different plugs, not sure why...
The black plug in the picture is the one on my original mirror, and the JDM ones have a slightly different shape and are white, what did you have on yours? |

Same on a classic. I canibalised two connectors from a scrapper to get the wires and pins out of, then soldered and heat-shrinked to make the new connections, and slipped the new pins into the original connector.

I thought about going scrap yard for some plugs but they will probably try and make me buy a pair of mirrors. |
Maybe, maybe not. If you can find a Legacy, they have the same connector pins....
Worth asking. If the mirrors are broken....and you only need one connector, they have enough pins to upgrade two sides. |
Im doing the same job, I was planning to go to maplins tomorrow as they look simlar to pc components and the pins that connect to the jdm switch are similar but slightly larger.

There are multi-connectors available from places like vehiclewiringproducts.co.uk.
They come with both the male and female parts, in anything from 2 to about 8 ways. Not dear either. http://www.vehicle-wiring-products.e...connectors.php Mini-connectors, about half way down the page. |
