Homelink Rear view Mirror

Zigen5 · 03-15-2010, 04:24 PM

Does anyone know a good place to purchase a homelink rear view mirror? I've been looking around for a good kit, but with no luck. Has anyone tried installing one on a roadster? How hard is it? I've done searches, but I need a solid source. Thanks...

Homelink mirror on the cheap

kenchan · 03-15-2010, 04:41 PM

yep, i got mine from amazon as well.

tjlazer · 03-15-2010, 05:00 PM

I just got mine from ebay as well Spent like $50 shipped.

vipor · 03-15-2010, 05:01 PM

Which ones did you guys get?

I would LOVE to find a new style (GNTX-453) with an Amber Compass

kenchan · 03-15-2010, 05:12 PM

huh, amber would be kinda cool...not that i would replace mine.

Do a search for a 2006 - 2008 Nissan Homelink for a Maxima.

Should look like this:

That's a 313 Series. The 453 is much sleeker and supposedly better built as well.

Gentex 313 / 341 Series Mirror
OEM for 2003 - 2005 model year vehicles

These older style mirrors are still sold through aftermarket retailers using the following model numbers:
50-GENK40, 50-GENK41, 50-GENK42, 50-GENK45, 50-GENK50, 50-GENK60

Gentex 453 Series Mirror
OEM for 2006 and newer vehicles

Recently this series of mirrors have started appearing at some aftermarket retailers using the following model numbers:
50-GENK40A, 50-GENK41A, 50-GENK45A, 50-GENK50A, 50-GENK51A

Looks like the 453 is the sexier way to go for sure. This guy sells on eBay too.

Pricing is definitely higher than some others though.

Geez, the 453 is the one I'm looking for... E-bay $150 and Amazon $250... But Amazon also includes the wire harness and wire cover...

Wiring harness and cover is like $35.00 retail. What a rip-off. I have a local guy who sells Gentex mirrors. All new 453 series. I picked mine up from him for $140.00. I tried the option of ordering a used one, but it ended up being damaged upon receipt. Instead of risking it again, I went ahead and bought new.

If we can get a head-count up, I will see what my guy will do on a group buy.

Also, Vipor, he does customization work, so I will ask him if he can do an amber compass for you and the cost if you wish.

Let me know, I would definitely join... I'm just looking for the homelink and compass...

stormcrow · 03-15-2010, 09:22 PM

Ok, then - let's start it up and see what we can get. Anyone interested, please put down what version you wish (313 or 453) and whether or not you would like the compass or temperature display.

Im interested in the new version with compass or temperature.

209Z · 03-16-2010, 04:49 AM

I want the new version and either compass or temperature is fine

Will this fit for the G37? If so then put me down for the 453 with Compass. I already have a homelink mirror but I don't like the orange amber.
