That is very cool. I didn't read the stuff in detail but it made reference to Bluetooth. Is that integrated into the mirror as well?

Want one! Don't need it....just want it.<g>

yes, it follows the same lines as the Azentek unit, however the programming is different and updated.

youtube search "azentek mirror" it will will show you what it does.

Update, i figured out a way to mount the unit in some other cars, however, if we unplug our mirrors, i suppose the auto-dim of the external mirrors will stop working also. However it can be done in our cars, just not a simple "take off old one, put in new one"

I have figured out the Hyundai brackets already, and it is installed and working perfectly. I can take some pics of it in there and what it looks like, but it doesnt really solve the jag issue of mounting.

How hard would it be to see the actual directions? It seems like you'd have to squint to read the details. Also, how do you enter the address; with voice or does it hook up to the existing navi?

actually it is easy to read and enter addresses. There is an updated model coming that links to i believe the K40 radar system. Im looking into what other units it will connect too. A very good friend of mine is the National Sales Manager for Directus. Also we have been talking about integrating the mirrors with security and tracking info.

What about for us with the headlight sensor and adjustment knob? Any ideas of how to relocate them or fabricate something?

Very cool Jason... Is it possible to add a rear view camera to a 1998 vdp?
