    Default Interior autodim rear view mirror

    I am looking for an auto dim inside rear view mirror. I have a 2006 Hatchback with rain sensor.
    Any idea which cars I can find one in?

    I tried to post a WTB in Classifieds but I don't have 50 posts yet.
    Anyone have one available?

    Ebay. Gentex. Same ones Mazda sells. If you get one with a compass you will need the version that is all-in-one, without a separate box that mounts on the windshield. New ones will almost certainly be all-in-one unless someone had it a box for years.

    I just cruised through eBay looking.
    Does the 2006 Mazda3 mirror also go into other Mazda models that I could search for?

    This was back in 2008 and it was something like $270 for the Homelink/Compass model and another $30 for the installation wire kit. I found it reasonable at the time.

    I found this mirror. It looks like it should work in my '06.

    Installed this mirror last week and Iit autodim's just as I wanted.
    I was also pleasantly surprised to find that the mirror is also a compass and temerature mirror. That wasn't in the description.

    Glad it works out for you. On the other hand, I love the auto-dim mirror. Especially when people with HID kits behind me.
