I didn't realize that my reply to an earlier thread was in the Other Regions section, so I decided to repeat it here.

Thought I'd see if there was any new information on this subject. I understand that only the 2004 XFRs came with the auto dimming mirror, so my 2005 SRT6 Roadster didn't come with one. And if I had a coupe I could live with it, but I think it almost dangerous to have the flip up mirror in a roadster. If it's just getting dark and headlights are blinding you from behind, you flip the mirror and see the blue sky that hasn't fully darkened yet. Or maybe worse, in an urban area, with the mirror flipped up you get intermittent views of the street lights or neon signs, what have you, instead of traffic behind you. Flipping the mirror down doesn't help much as the interior is lit up so much that you see that instead of a rear view. So, has anyone tried to order a 2004 mirror, even if they don't have a 2004? Or did Chrysler need to see a VIN before they would sell it? Or has anyone tried one of the aftermarket self dimming mirrors? Such as:

These normally require a wire run in the windshield surround, but I was wondering if they could be wired into the garage door opener power? I wouldn't get the one with all the bells and whistles, already have a temperature read out on the dash and never could understand what good a compass was in a car, where you have to follow the road rather than a compass heading. Any thoughts?
