GM Temp Sensor Rearview Mirrors

Two rear view mirrors with temp sensor and compass built in. They are from late '90's GM vehicles. I am running the same mirror in my 4X4 so I tested both of these. They work perfectly. There is a pic of each mirror with the temp displaying.

Includes the mirror and sensor that you mount behind the grille. Install instructions can be found right here on this site. Pretty straightforward, took me about 90 minutes run wire and get everything looking neat.

**sold**Mirror A (dusty mirror) has temp and compass displaying at same time.**sold**
Mirror B (clean mirror) can be swapped between compass and temp.

$35/each includes shipping (to 48 states)

pics of the two mirrors. First pic is Mirror A, second pic is Mirror B. I see no spots, chips or blemishes on either mirror.

No, with these mirrors its one or the other. I've never seen a factory one that has both temp sensor and map lights under it.

I do have a VERY nice factory mirror from a '92 Firebird that has just the lights (no temp). I'd be willing to part with it, if you are interested.

Re: GM Temp Sensor Rearview Mirrors

I have two more temp sensor/ auto dim mirrors. Both are tested, and work properly (as shown in the pics). Both include a bolt-in temp sensor like the one shown in the last picture, and the snap-in harness with plenty of wire to splice into. $40/each shipped to 48 states
Both are double line display (shows temp and compass direction at the same time). Your on your own with calibrating the compass. Both are used, but clean up quite nice, with no visible scratches.
I will send wiring instructions when payment is received. You will only need to provide an inline fuse, and wire,
These are a direct bolt-in for Thirdgens (you will need to wire it up, obviously). They also fit many other vehicles. I use them in my 2015 Toyota 4Runner and 2016 Corolla.

Re: GM Temp Sensor Rearview Mirrors

what a great piece of history, the start of the automobile microprocessor revolution - when we started cramming uP even into mirror's! they say EV's will double the amount of uP needed in a car.
