Default Auto dimming mirrors

Does anyone know where I can get auto dimming mirrors for my 2003 accord? I have found the rear view mirror but cannot find a package for auto dimming side mirrors.

My mom has a tricked out MDX and that doesn't even have auto dimming side mirrors... I've never even heard of them.

I take it you meant most dont come with dimming side mirrors. My dad hada BMW with them and I loved how you never got headlight glare at night. Also loved the auto windshield wipers, any idea if you could put those on as well?

Right, autoanything usually has some good deals, but for side mirrors good luck.

UPDATE: H and A has it for $126 for a limited time, I'd jump on it.

Im sure you can,But are you sure you cant just turn on your wipes manually?

If your serious..then you can go to the dealer and have them order one for you,going to cost a pretty penny.

instead of auto dimming mirrors, what about tinting them like some audis have that blu tint for side mirrors.?

That is tinted glass, not a film. Youd either have to runa light 70% tint for daytime driving or a dark 10% tint for nighttime. Not really worth it and the job probably wouldnt look the greatest... personally, I just turn my mirrors down if someone with bright lights is driving behind me for an extended period of time.
