Waynerm002 Posted January 14, 2005 Share Posted January 14, 2005 Has anyone replaced the standard exterior mirrors for the ones with the indicators yet? Is it an easy install, is it possible to retrofit? They should have made that available on all the Legacys, not just the GTs. I like that and want it if it is possible.

Xenonk Posted January 14, 2005 Share Posted January 14, 2005 I doubt the wiring is there, it's a direct bolt on. What you can do it run the wires to the front blinker and that's that. Keefe Keefe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agctr Posted January 14, 2005 Share Posted January 14, 2005 Im sure that the whole unit can be purchased which will come with all the wires. For the moment the only place that you will be able to order these parts would be directly thru your Dealership and they wont be cheap. Adam.

fan42025 Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 I thought all of them had the indicators. And here I was bitching at Subaru for not having LEDs for the rear lights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dv8ingvector Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 all the gts have them not the 2,5is :-(...if you really want to get crazy the j spec mirrors have a push button folding deal going on, too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, that's tight. I also believe they have an option to vibrate them rapidly too to shake off the ice/snow. Don't need it here though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fbi012 Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 I'm blaming both Canada and the States but seriously, this feature has become more like a safty feature, not a "show off" one, so its really weird that they took it off to save 10 cents.

Waynerm002 Posted January 26, 2005 Author Share Posted January 26, 2005 Maybe in a year or so we will see a lot more options showing up for these cars. I really like the integrated indicator look. Gives the car a nicer, classier look. If anyone finds out, please post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opie Posted March 12, 2005 Share Posted March 12, 2005 OK I've done some researching. The 2.5i is not pre-wired for the mirrors with the indicators. But all is not lost. If you really wanted to install them you just need to install the door cord harness for each front door out of the 2.5GT (it's just the harness in the 2.5i's doors that is different) install that and then you will have the right connector where you need it. Then you just need the mirrors... Here are the 2.5GT door cord part numbers: Drivers Front Door: 81820AG17A - Approx. $70.00 Passenger Front Door: 81821AG13A - Approx. $65.00 and the mirror numbers (These are for Atlantic Blue Pearl Mirrors-ABE, make sure you order your correct color): Drivers: 91031AG07ABE - Approx. $200.00 Passenger: 91031AG06ABE - Approx. $200.00 Sounds like an expensive mod....$535.00 plus time to install.

Waynerm002 Posted March 13, 2005 Author Share Posted March 13, 2005 Looks good. Too bad we don't get a lot of the goodies that the rest of the world gets. I notice that from the Japan website, their cars have what looks like LED in the right side backup lights among a lot of the things we have been discussing. Their bumpers look so much nicer, it gives their car a much classier look. With all those things that we don't get here, it makes you feel cheated when you take a look at one of theirs.

The rest of the world doesn't get anywhere near what you can get in Japan. The options list is almost enough to make a BMW buyer cringe. Dumb move by Subaru IMHO. Sure cost is a factor but so what to those who can afford it. Don't see BMW holding back on the options list yet plenty of people I know opt for them.

RoundBoy Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 keep in mind that while you get the folding mirror in japan, you also loose the heated mirror function Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waynerm002 Posted March 14, 2005 Author Share Posted March 14, 2005 If I remember correctly, our models are built here. I am sure Subaru America could develop some items for our market. Imagine adding a few extras that the big boys charge extra for to make the cars that much more appealing. I think one thing that they could have expanded on is the color choices for the interior and exterior. I would have liked to have had the choice of color for the interior of my car. Black leather is not my cup of tea. I would have preferred a dark gray. I see in some of the photos from the Japanese models, they have a two tone interior. My black dash shows so much dust on it a day or so after a wash. Ah, if only. One can always dream and hope that something else will be available later.

TCL28 Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 I really want mirrors with integrated turn signals now! What's with the red rear turn signals? What ever happened to amber or orange? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebpda9 Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 am i the only one who doesn't like the indicator mirrors ? i think it makes them look too bulky for my taste. now if i could get the heated mirrors body colored that would be awesome.
