Did this all go smoothly?

I have an frs and haven't been able to find the wire socket. I may have to try dropping the headliner...

Pop the overhead light out and follow that harness up into the headliner. You should feel the socket. You can really only fit one hand in there. And dont do it after the car has been sitting in the sun all day, that roof gets hot

Its the standard Subaru 3 pin plug. The Homelink Im running is from an '09 Legacy IIRC. You can get the cam lock adapter on eBay for $20 shipped too.

Here are the programming instructions:

I had to reprogram the compass too, but it was zoned correctly.

Ah got it (I did learn about the hot roof in the sun though). I was trying to find a plug that would come all the way out, but it was stuck/pinned just inside. I was able to see it enough to plug the cable in, and now it's all good. Such a nice mod especially the autodimming since I didn't tint the rear window.

Yea, the Homelink/autodimming mirror is great. I used to have my garage door opener in the cell-phone-cup-holder-thing and always used to hit it with my elbow

Does the mirror (H501SCA100) come with everything necessary for plug-and-play? Does it need any camlock adapters or extra wiring harness?

tripjammer · 07-13-2012, 11:53 AM

Looks like the best way would be to go with the $79 flash2Pass and then get the frameless rear view mirror $99 from JDM. Then you have the best of both worlds...just saying...

The frameless mirror is sweet, but auto dimming and control over three garage doors is sweeter IMO.

Now if only Homelink could push my up 3 flights of stairs and unlock my apartment door for me.

Khyron686 · 07-13-2012, 04:08 PM

I love the mirror - the autodimming is worth the price of admission IMO with all these jacked up trucks and terrible hid kits.

Homelink and the compass work great as well.

The plug IS there on the pass side but it is hard to see/feel.

mikochu · 07-13-2012, 04:43 PM

Do the high-beam mod! Either wire up a relay to your garage door opener to close the circuit when you flash your high beams or just close the circuit on your 12v garage door opener and wire that to your high beams. Flash your high beams at your garage door and voila! I had that setup on my xA years back and it never failed.

I forgot about the autodimming.....yeah homelink is cool, I have it in my Z, but I only need one garage door to open....

OrbitalEllipses · 07-13-2012, 07:59 PM

I had an autodimming mirror in my WRX...now I can't live without one; I hate messing with the little tab for glare at night.

Camotec · 07-14-2012, 06:38 AM

Can anyone confirm this will work on the Australian delivered Toyota 86? I wont have my 86 for another few months, but i would like to buy all of my mods now.

Same car so it should, but just not sure. And i should not need any adaptors should I? Being that i am going to buy the Subaru BRZ mirror from the states (genuine spares).
