Reverse mirror tilt

[PRDE5]

According to this info on the Acura website, our cars have this feature. It does not work in my car. Has anyone noticed this?

What a surprise...doesn't work in my car. Maybe there is a special setting to enable it?

Huh, I didn't realize this came standard... Only thing I tried was moving the mirror switch from L to R to see if it would initiate tilt down while in reverse but no luck. Figured it wasn't a feature

Not sure where you found that but this is directly from https://www.acura.com/cars/integra/pricing-and-specs.

There is an aftermarket module you can buy from Mikstore that adds reverse mirror tilt (for the Civic). It uses a different connector because it's made for the Civic version without blind spot indicators, but according to their instructions it should work but a little bit of modification. Personally I'm waiting on installing that until I can get my hands on the correct connector.

I feel bamboozled. This is the mood lightning website-picture vs reality all over again:

Back on topic.......The selector has to be on the right mirror for it to tilt down during reverse. The mirror sticks lower when returning to the normal position and you will likely have to adjust it up a little bit when youre driving.

The module from the A-Spec with Tech cars wouldn't work? Seems like that is the simplest solution.

was just about to say the same thing finally realized selector has to be on the right mirror, and thank you for letting me know I'm not crazy ( at least not for this) for thinking a lot of times I have to readjust the mirror

I don't see why it wouldn't - this route would be the most ideal. Not sure if it's a simple plug-and-play in the passenger door or if it's more involved and needs to tie into the reverse light wiring at the back of the car.

I have no idea where to even start looking for this outside of a wrecked A-spec that has the module.

I thought the selector switch bring on the “R” right position was only for the A-spec? I tried last month doe the ITS and it didn’t seem to work
