Question Rear View Mirror

I was wondering what people were putting in their resto-mods... looking for something beyond the stock 69 Camaro mirror, maybe with map lights, compass, etc...

Search ebay for "Gentex mirror." There are many different makes and models.

I too saw the Marquez mirror at SEMA. It looks like a very nice piece. I wonder what they will sell for. I'm currently using a 4th gen camaro mirror. It has two map lights that are nice. It is a 3 wire hook up power, ground, and dimmer. You only need to hook up power and ground you don't want to tie into the headlight switch for the dimmer.

The coolest thing about the Marquez mirror is that is the led map lights run of a small battery hidden inside the mirror body. No wires to try and hide in your headliner.

The On-Star FMV rear view mirror looks like it might be interesting.
