JDM folding Mirrors

Anyone have a wiring guide for wiring the switch in? I assume the actual mirrors are "plug and play" since they have the connectors still on them.

Also, should I worry about the angle (i was told the angle would be a little off since they're mirrors are setup for right hand drive).

Where did you pick up a pair of those mirrors, or more like, where can I pick up a pair? I've been looking since my friend w/ showed me on his skyline *(never knew they did that until he showed me)

mine were 62 bucks including shipping from ebay. Slightly used, but look new pretty much.

pages 158 and 159 in the Electrical section of the 1996 service manual has the wiring diagrahm for the power mirrors.
Granted those aren't for the power folding mirrors but i think you can figure out what to hook up to those extra wires. I'm sure it's just a ground and +12v signal wire to the motor.

I did find this tho. Wiring schematic for the EU and Australian versions of the Z32.
I'm not sure how much different this will be from the other.

ahh, i was told that you pretty much have to rewire everything and that hte current plugs on the mirros have to be changed bc they aren't c ompatable and that the current mirror switch has a wire to the ECU and stuff. I havn't really looked at it, I guess I can figure it out though. I guess i'll look at the plugs and stuff and see if i can figure out if thye are compatiable. And i guess i'll just take the switches and do wire for wire switch them out and ground any extra ones i have left over. I have a japanese friend, maybe he can translate a JDM FSM

Thanks for the info Riz

Friend of mine in my car club, just found out he got his installed. Let me quote his post. I'll get more info later. I was told the plugs wouldn't match up. But who knows. Right now i'm focusing on switching the mirrors out.

"Its very difficult to do and will take a ton of #10 fuses to figure out. If yours is the same as mine then all we have to do is match all the wires like mine. "
Not much info there except the part about the fuses.

I don't have a jap. FSM, but with the internet now a days, you can get anything pretty much.
