Did anybody install the Mazda Homelink mirror 0000-8c-z27. I would like to buy one as long as the install isnt to difficult.

I contacted Cardinaleway Mazda and they said they sent me the instructions (twice) but for some reason Im not getting them. I gave the parts guy my email on the phone and he sent it while I was talking to him and nothing. I just got them. Its 8 pages long. Last edited by MarMugMot; 12-23-2009 at 02:16 PM.

I just skimmed over them. You need to remove drivers side scuff plate,kick plate, door seal,A-pillar trim and of course the mirror. Then run the wire, tap into the harness, connect the ground. Now you have to drive around in a slow circle 3 times to calibrate the compass. It seems easy enough. I might try it because I hate having the garage door opener on my visor.

The only other caution I'd offer is that if you have rain sensing wipers, be very careful when you put the new cover on (mine had a different cover than the original). I had trouble getting the wires into the channel and pulled it back off-breaking one of the clips. The original cover (the black box that surrounds the mirror mount/rain sensing wiper sensor) clips to the mirror itself. The new mirror cover clips to the rain sensing wiper box mounted on the windshield. If you pull too hard to remove it, you'll break the clips holding the sensor together. Not trying to freak you out-just be careful and patient... Let me know if you have questions-I'm pretty sure that if you have rain-sensing wipers, the install is the same. You also will most likely NOT have to drive around in 3 circles. I installed mine at work during lunch and drove home after work. By the time I got home, my compass was calibrated...I live a mile from my office. | |||||||||

I installed it yesterday.There were only two real hard parts. The A-pillar trim has a little black Knob inside around the airbag that you have to turn and push to release. Then connecting a wire connector up under the dash. When I say up under the dash , its UP under the dash. It works great. It auto dims and has Homelink , so no more garage door opener on the visor. You do need to drive around in a circle 3 times at 5 mph to set the compass or it will just stay in calibration mode. | ||||||||
