This is going to sound ridiculous but here it is, the rear view mirror thats provided on the MP4-12C does it have homelink as well the auto-dimming features built in?
As well has anyone purchased the MAcarbon rear view mirror and had it sent to Radar-mirror to have the above noted components installed?, if they are not available on the stock mirror. Cheers.....??

Rear view mirror is plane has nothing added. There are aftermarket company's that can give you a mirror with most anything in them, Homelink, GPS backup camera, ,Onstar. Just look on the web. And you can have Radar added also.

 

[Whoopsy]

No homelink on the mirror.

I taped a small 3 button keychain type remote to the back side of the center console on the passenger side, so I just reach around there it is within fingertip reach.

If you are dead set on having a radar-mirror AND a carbon shell, I suggest you talk to John at MACarbon and see if he can source a pre-made mirror from radar-mirror then he add his carbon shell.

Hey extremride22. I have had both HomeLink and "Electronic Countermeasures" installed into my mirror by Radar Mirror. I absolutely love it! I hate to carry a garage remote and I hate radar detector cords even more.

Below is a crappy photo of it. The HomeLink is on the top right of the mirror and is not visible. You should have a professional install it.

Please consider the following: A stock mirror costs $75 and the MA Carbon version is $650. I bought a spare mirror and sent it to Radar Mirror. They returned it to me complete and perfect in 24 hours.

Yeah Fastlane I found a company down in Texas called Radar-mirror.com, I just wanted to know if anyone has actually dealt with them using the MAcarbon mirror. Cheers....??

Thanks N8te that's what I was looking for, some confirmation on the service and product that Radar-Mirror.com provides. I'm the same way I hate loose wires and clutter, although I would like to add some more CF to the interior of my putt putt. Cheers......??

that looks great! how much did they charge you for the radar set up?

 

[mrwolf]

Nice little mod I am considering this....

 

[extremeride22]

Well unfortunately I was informed that the auto dimming feature can not be done on the Mac as noted below. Cheers....??


We can add Homelink to your mirror for $299. The V1 display is $499. I'm
sorry but this mirror can't be converted to auto dimming. Let me know what

Hey Mac 1: $808 for the HomeLink plus radar feature in the mirror and shipping. The radar system itself and the install are of course not included in this price. HomeLink was $300 of this, so $500 for the radar set up alone. Same as e22 says above.

 

[Mac 1]

so homelink and V1 radar for $800?
this seems very good! are you happy with teh way it came out?

We'd be happy to work with Radar-Mirror to give you the combo of the CF with the Home-Link. The standard mirror is very plane jane.... needs carbon!

Yes. I've been very pleased with the system. Mine is K-40, however, and not V1. I prefer the K-40 because it has a quiet ride function that you can set for a particular speed. For example, my system is set to give an audible alert only over 45 mph. I still see the visual alerts under 45, but quiet ride prevents me from losing my mind driving through town. It also has front and rear indicators like the V1, which is a valuable feature.
