Nice find! How much those run you?

I believe the stock wiring is not there on the USDM version so you may have to splice to get the signals to work. Not sure tho.

$589. It's used but free shipping from Japan...probably $300 than what it would have cost me from Japan parts., with any luck the harness will have the signal somewhere. My 08 Impreza had them on the actual plug and the mirrors had a slot for the signal, just needed to buy the signal and skull cap and paint. Hope the paint is a match too but it looks like a greenish color in the pic

Nice find! That will look great. And running the wires from your turn signals won't be that hard to do to make them work.

wow!!! nice!!

Siiiiick! Pics required after install!

Great find man, It would be so nice to have the intergrated turn signals in the rear-view mirrors, damn I wish that was available on the 5th generation.

I saw that a few days ago, but they only had one side available.

Yeah, talked to the seller and they had both. I hope the fact that they drive on the right won't affect the mirror, the shape of the mirror glass is different

Nacron, the colour of the mirror cap in the foto is called "sage green metallic".
And yes, the shapes of the mirror glasses are different (for LHD)

Agreed. Sick and you are now required to post an install with pics. Seriously, you really need to do the DIY with good pics.

Yeah lucky find I have looking for over a year for these with out having to get them from japanparts. if I ever sell my extra parts I'm going to get a set. I hope you do a write up too.

Hate to sound like a d-bag, but am I the only one here who thinks that this is an absolute waste of $600?

I guess power means more to me than looks...

there's only so much power you can put to the cvt before you are buying a new one.

I was driving my gf's Nissan Rogue (about the same power and weight) with a CVT from Phoenix to Flagstaff. We had to pull over because the CVT kept overheating and couldn't mantain 55+mph uphill on the highway (on a grade probably no greater than 4-5%). After looking at the manual, it said the engine will reduce power & revs under "severe driving" to prevent the CVT from breaking. So I'd be driving with my foot to the floor, revs at 3000rpm and dropping, and speed falling. Literally flooring the thing just to stay at 55mph. Nothing was wrong with the engine or its temp, just the car's computer forcing it to limp to protect the CVT. We were driving normally at 75-80mph as well, normal weather, no crazy passing, just cruising. Good job Nissan!

THIS is why I will never buy a car with a CVT transmission. Not saying all of them are like this, but this is the major issue. They cannot take much power before they start to overheat. It also feels like driving a rubber band wind up car . I'll take metal gears over a chain and pulleys, thank you.
