    power folding mirrors.

    Ok for all those that have Power folding mirrors on their cars, how did you run the wires from the door to the cabin. I don't mean actually wiring them up, i mean getting them from the door to the inside. I don't know if there is a difference in the factory loom between sedan doors and coupe doors.

    All help is appreciated. Please pm me or send me a message on either aim or yahoo or text/call me 773-818-3230. Thanks guys.

          Because in order to get to the factory loom is a real PITA. When the loom comes into the door, it goes directly to a protective box of some sort. No way to get to that box unless i i remove the inner metal skin of the door.

          So basically, i was wondering if someone had actually messed with the loom and tried to run the wires through there. If so, how did you do it? I had the same idea as busak, because that's how i had run my speaker wires in my old sedan.

            I just added a switch with the fold button, and the mirrors folded.

            i did have the advantage of a JDM CB9 dash and wiring, and folding mirrors as well.

            All i needed was the fold button.

            I know, it doesnt help much.

                I think your only option is to just leave them hanging like mine...unless you really want to mess around with the factory door loom

                  I'd rather do that then look all ghetto with hanging wires.

                      If worst comes to worst you'll have to take off the fender and fusebox.
                      wat?

                            yea OEM look ftw..but have you guys tried messing with the factory loom?? If not, then your opinion has no basis. Not trying to be an asshole or naything, i'm just saying, from looking at it, it looks like a HUGE PITA.

                              ^^ I agree completely!!! when I installed mine, I wanted to get the wires to go through the loom too...but after looking at it and trying to feed something through it, I figured it wasnt going to happen so I just ran the wire where it is now.

                              it doesnt look as bad in person as it seems in the pic...the only thing I wish I did, was use a black wire lol...that green wire is kinda visible
