So. My windshield cracked when I first got the car due to the rear view mirror falling out. Well I just got my glass man to do a quick 5 minute glue job to it and its lasted almost a year until yesterday it fell out again.. Well about 6 months ago the dimming fluid started to bleed out.. Well I took a rear view mirror with auto dimming and compass from a 04 LS that was totaled .. only problem. my 2000 LS has a 3 pin connector and the 04 mirror was a 7 pin.. SO Heres what I did!!
Take the 3 pins out of the 3 pin connector. Remembering which ones are labeled in spots 1 2 3 . then in the 7 pin harness which I cut out of the 04 I took out all the 5 wires in the 7 pin connector and put the wires corresponding with the numbers 1 2 3 on the spots which is
1 Power (Red I think. Or mixed colored)
2 Ground (Black)
3 Reverse (White)
The Other 2 in the 04 are for a component in the 2nd gen which the 1st doesnt have.
And it being from a 04, the compass is around the foot of the mirror instead of being where the 02 mirrors was. Which I think are in the head liner.
So tada
04 mirror with Compass and Auto dim in a 2000 Sport that had just a plain old mirror with manual dim
