Hey!! U.s. Owners Look Here!
i forgot to look when i saw 3Rotor's car the other day. are there lights on the underside of the side mirrors as illustrated here?
|
NOPE!..........But there is a small cutout in the shape of the 'would be' light. It feels as though you could just push it out. Its obvious that the mirror was designed for it.....but where is it?
I will post a pic |
not on mine there isnt
|
Here you go.......strange huh?
|
The light is standard in the euro version. Maybe you can get it as an option?

I thought the lighted entry mirror was standard on the Grand Touring model, not the other two (Sport & Touring). |
Wish they were on there. The Volvo S60 T5 I had, had those exterior lights on them. I found them very handy both from a safety standpoint, to convenience. It made it easier to find the car in a parking lot at night. :)

Originally posted by 8_wannabe Nope. I got the GT and just went out and looked. Got a black plastic plug in the mirror. :confused: Someone, go pop the black plastic plug, and see if the wiring harness is there. If it is, then I'll go ahead and order it from an overseas Mazda parts source and install the damn thing myself. (lamp and light fixture). :D |

hmm what purpose does it serve other than helping you find your car in the parking lot?, looks cool though i'd like them if i'd be sensible to install using imported parts
|
The Beav hmm what purpose does it serve other than helping you find your car in the parking lot? On my experience I think, That is not helping to finding a car, Since the light is switched on at the time of closing of a door. EAST MOON |
Not in Canada...
Canadian GT pack checking in/ no just black plastic plugs.

This feature is actually very useful, if your parked agaist a curb at night and there isn't sufficant lighting. It lights up the curb area, and your passenger knows where to step so they don't end up breaking an ankel.
It's also great for exiting the car also.. You don't know where or what your steping on at night... But if it's all lit up it's great.. |
Accessory?
Thare is a noght light accessory listed in the Accessories Brochure. I wonder if this is it?

I noticed that also, and I have the GT - just rubber plugs. I wonder if the "night lights" accessory includes that. I know it includes the interior lights under where you put your feet, but I wonder if maybe it includes those exterior lights as well.

I have the night light kit at home. I didn't look at it too closely yet, but I'll check it out tonight. I'm pretty sure it just had 2 lights in it and didn't say anything about the mirrors
