Just having trouble visualizing it all. I haven't seen a video of it (and don't have Facebook) to help. Maybe once I get things apart it will become clear. Worst case I'm pretty decent at soldering! :)
True, but figured it was still worth an ask on the off-chance someone had actually found a simple, elegant solution. :)
I still find it rather absurd AHM went so damn cheap (leaving it out) on a $40k Intrega...my 20 year old TSX has Homelink!
According to 355 (https://www.integraforums.com/forum/threads/retrofit-honda-civic-dimming-mirror-w-homelink.50656/post-847952) depinning isn't an option for a couple reasons.
Thanks! My mother lives in Conway just 25ish miles away, and I have several old college buddies in LR -- so if my local dealers won't "play" then I will be reaching out to your dealer. One thing that might hurt me is that I don't plan to finance the purchase.
Has anyone thought about trying to use (or actually has used) one of the following cheaper items instead:

If I get the Accord frameless mirror 08V03-3A0-100 and I cut off its connector replacing it with the connector from the Integra mirror (while adding a couple inches of wire in the process + jumpering together the red & yellow wires) then I can avoid much of disassembly/reassembly steps -- or...
Thanks for the info. I should have an extra 215/50R17 tire (for my TSX) in my basement so now thinking it might make more sense to snag an extra 17x7 rim to use knowing I have all the jack & stuff from the TSX. Then I'll just put the stock foam insert from the Teg in the well of the TSX.
I don't think a spacer would work (unless it was WAY thick) because the issue is the front brake caliper is too big for the spare tire wheel to clear.
I currently have a 2006 TSX 6MT, and I'm considering upgrading to a 2026 Integra Aspec 6MT. I am considering getting a new tire for the TSX...
LOL, sitting-and-waiting during shifting is the polar opposite of shifting aggressively. I would argue that those that shift slowly and/or wait while shifting are folks who would not notice the rev hang. And conversely those that drive and shift aggressively (i.e. - trying to make quick shifts...
Exactly!
If a driver who was not "taught to match revs on an upshift" means they that take their sweet time shifting gears -- even when driving aggressively and revving near redline -- then stanleywinthrop is completely missing the point! But as I have been saying, this isn't any everyday...
So exactly what is done differently by a"driver who was taught to match revs on an upshift" and a driver that doesn't when both are driving aggressively and shifting near the redline? When driving like that I'm just trying to get a quick gear shift done to get the engine reengaged to put power...
Thanks! I am reading that it should be less of an issue in cars with direct injection. I don't think my old TSX has that, but I suspect the new Teg does. I test drove the 6MT Integra back in 2023 when it came out, but the MTs seem harder to find lately. I will track down a dealer with one...
It isn't a problem in typical everyday driving, but as soon as I try to drive my TSX aggressively (i.e. kicking up the revs up towards redline) that's when rev hang occurs. From that I can tell, it occurs because the car's electroniccs are trying to keep emissions down which is what I always...
Thanks for the reply! How is the rev hang in the your Integra versus your TSX? That is one of my bigger gripes about the TSX; to me it takes most the fun out of the car when trying to do spirited driving.
