you have no idea how jealous I am of those.......Next Mod has been decided LOL....Would you recommend going TSX or Hybrid? I will also probably get the shark mod cause that looks pretty sweet.

Since you have a sedan (and I know you want a coupe badly...but this is the one thing you can shove in all of our faces haha) I would go with Hybrid Accord mirrors The only thing is, they are pricey! But literally plug-n-play for the 7G sedans. You might even be able to find a set that's already the same color as your car, which is REALLY nice.

I think I found them on majestic.http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com/...ROR+%28+06-%29

Hmmm so $235 a mirror is a bit pricey but still under $500. They don't even have my color ....So right now my mirrors aren't heated(at least I don't think they are). How would I go about adding that feature in?

Yes, they typically go for $400-500 or you could shop around to see if you could find a used pair (what I was suggesting above, not brand new) in hopes of finding a silver set (it's not going to be exactly the same paint as I think the Hybrids had different colors? Don't quote me on that though).

You don't have to worry about the heating element, unless you plan on hooking up a 12V switch to turn it on/off. My car already has heated mirrors so it wouldn't have been an issue for me.

But if you're absolutely set on heating mirrors, watch Long's video on how to install the Shark Racing mod and you'll see on the mirrors in his vid the heating element on the glass at 02:00mins

The mirrors looked black. The ones on my coupe are two-tone black and silver.

Good stuff!!!!! So the second thing, is it the navi?

@datdesi

Better off finding a used set for yourself. Pretty sure you will come across one. Just a matter of looking around.

Looks nice! I wish I had a garage or even a house so I could do mods.

Basically you take out the mirror from the plastic housing and peel off the plastic covering on the back of the mirror about a quarter to half of the way. Place the led right onto the back of the mirror and peel the plastic covering right back on and put it back in the plastic housing. Then wire it accordingly.

Dreamin, how did you go about wiring the turn signals on the back of the mirror? From my understanding is that you wired them to the rear turn signals and then wired the shark racing mod to that. I think if you wire them to the front, they will stay on continuously when your headlights are on.

The Hybrid mirrors look similar to the TSX mirrors, both of which will fit on the sedan with some slight modifications. Personally if I were to do it, I'd go for the Inspire mirrors, they've got a built in power folding option. Nothing would hurt more then switching to expensive mirrors just for some asshole to break them off while walking by/parking.

Note: Most to all JDM Inspire mirrors come out of Japan. If you search Inspire mirrors on ebay sometimes you can find a set. The best price I've seen was 350 + shipping for 2 mirrors and the button to fold. The mirrors were not the same color as my car at the time and I was to broke to afford that.
