The converstation mirror was an option on the Odyssey, CR-V, etc. I liked the option since I have to keep tabs on the kids in the backseat, but was not available for the Accord as an aftermarket option. The housing is exactly the same except the swing door.

I thought i'd give this a shot on the Accord. Found the part number from an '06-Odyssey.
Part#83250-SHJ-A03ZB

You can follow the install video from DIYHonda.com (http://odeo.com/episodes/22069615-Podcast-Episode-93-Ridgeline-Conversation-Mirror)...Same steps, but they do it on a Ridgline.

Overall I'd give this mod a 7.5/10. The angle of the mirror and the drivers position is a little off, but I can at least see what's going on in the backseat without turning around while driving.

:thmsup:

That's awesome. Seen that on a minivan I rented once. I think I should do that to my accord.

I've always wondered about this. Good writeup. Usually the only way I can see what the kids are doing is by flipping my rearview mirror.

My mom's CRV came with this. Looks good...I think it's called a convex mirror and is more for watching kids in the backseat!

Very cool. I have a baby on the way now, so I should consider doing this one. I always wondered in the back of my mind if this would work. Now I don't have to wonder anymore.

Will the same part number work for accord 2008? :dunno:
I think not, the console on 2008 model has a different look.
Does anyone know what is honda part number for conversation mirror that will fit accord 2008?
