IN-MIRROR REARVIEW CAMERA Group Buy Interest - Non Navi

smittyplace · 12-16-2010, 06:11 PM

ALL 2010 NON-NAVI 370Z BASE/NISMO OWNERS: For 2011, there's an "In-Mirror" RearView Monitor with Homelink and Digital Compass listed as as accessory ($690).

If you're interested in retrofitting your Z with the new 2011 RearView Homelink mirror, please post your reply to 'smittyplace'. I thought we could gather a list of non-navi owners to show the Nissan dealers and or aftermarket shops the interest in getting this unit retrofitted to our cars and get a good price as a group-buy/installation. Jeffblue has started one for navi owners but we need one for non-navi owners (Nismo, Base, etc.) as well whose interested in the mirror (thanks Jeff for the idea

) Here's the line to the mirror for those who have not seen it yet - 2011 Nissan 370Z Coupe | Accessories | Nissan USA under Interior. I look forward to your responses.

U sure you can't find one cheaper online? Probably just a gentex mirror.

At that price you can do a HU and rearview camera.

JayYoon · 12-17-2010, 04:04 AM

so are there any major differences in 2010 and 2011 zs?

JayYoon · 12-17-2010, 04:08 AM

very interesting, i just checked out the rear view mirror... i wonder how this is gonna work out... lol

dirTy_shoeZ · 12-19-2010, 06:17 PM

im game for it. wheres the camera mount?

HATED1 · 12-19-2010, 06:20 PM

I'd be in, just provide us with more info and details.

smittyplace · 12-20-2010, 07:22 AM

There are no major differences I can tell between the 2010 & 2011 models except for the packaged options appear to be a little different plus the 'in-mirror' backup camera/homelink compass mirror option. I don't have a lot of details yet and the dealers don't have them either. I'll give it a month or so and followup to see how an upgrade could be accomplished. Some dealers don't even show it as an accessory. If anyone finds out more details, please post them here so we all can be informed. Also, if anyone has found a similar mirror online that's cheaper with details, please post. Thanks.

The only thing that I saw was the led lights... in front of your... i forgot what those were called? lol

Is this made specifically for the Z?
Please show images, links etc.

Shaman · 12-26-2010, 11:36 PM

Any update on thisone ? Im still looking this on my basic one!

smittyplace · 01-02-2011, 10:07 PM

I'm just getting back in town and catching up on emails etc. From what I've read, the mirror doesn't appear to be Z specific but here is a picture of what it looks like. Also, here's more info on the mirror:
* Features a built-in monitor to help give you an improved view of what's directly behind you[*]
* Features a digital compass and HomeLink® Universal Transceiver, which opens garage doors and security gates

I just spoke with a local Nissan dealership and they have the mirror on their accessories list for $690 & the service dept. will charge $200 for installation. I was told the rear-view camera would be placed above the license plate area. However, according to the parts guy, the unit is for all 370's except for the Nismo. My Nismo wiring I thought was the same as the base but I'll have to dig further to see about getting it installed.

price is a bit steep. For a little extra I would rather the Escort SMart Mirror.
