Auto Folding Mirrors installed

[_Paul_from_Jax]

No options from the factory unlike other competitors who make this stuff standard and still charge less.

Fixed that for you.

I don't wanna stray too far off topic, but folding mirrors, homelink and rear seat vents are all standard fare in cars in the $45k-50k price range.

That said, I'm pretty sure that I'm gonna keep mine for a little bit, so I'll eventually get around to installing these.

Thanks to everyone for contributing to this thread. I'll be ready for this mod when my car arrives in a few months.

Just wanted to clarify one thing. Do I need the canbus adapter if I just want auto fold/unfold WITHOUT windows automatically rolling up. I don't care about having the latter feature.

You actually don't need that canbus adapter! I got one but decided not to install it.

Canbus not needed. It does allow for auto closing the windows. This is also the downside to the adapter, when the mirrors close the windows also closes so I am unable to roll the windows down and keep them down.

Thanks. Do you find the motors a bit loud? I saw some videos on FB and they seem like they're a lot louder than the ones on my MDX.

If anyone orders the mikstore kit c i did not depin the harness. I cut the rubber gasket on the back of the mirror with a pair of scissors then pryed the metal/rubber skid guide thingy up and pulled the harness through the base as is. This isnt for people who care about damaging the rubber gasket. I just elecal tapped the cut back up after. This is probably the easiest way to install power folding mirrors. Thanks OP!

This is the rubber gasket on the back. I opened the cut so you can see where i cut.

This is on the other end of the mirror base. That skid plate just pushes in the base and comes out with a flat head or a pry tool. It pushes back down and stays where its supposed to when pressed back in.

New owner of ITS (picked up over the weekend). Ordered the kit today, so looking forward to tacking this in coming days.

I ordered the following
- Model F + Honda Reverse Tilt Mirror
- Honda Side Mirror Flowing LED Lamp × 1 (Civic 22-24 11th Gen / FL5 Type-R)
- Honda Window Auto Lifter and Side Mirror Auto Fold × 1 (Civic 22-25 11th Gen)

Anything that I missed?

Highly recommend aspherical mirrors.

Looks good. I also like the cost savings now with the F kit.

Reading the other thread on this topic, I have some concern about the tilt feature. It seems like for our cars it is always enabled and we cannot simply turn it off by putting the switch in the middle. Is that still the case with the latest kit?

Did you order the Model F kit with tilt?
If you did it seems to function like the Aspec Tech. Leave switch on passenger side to enable tilt.

Yes, that's what I ordered but then got confused reading some of the comments where the OP mentioned that he had to install a separate switch to disable the tilt function.

Oh. Maybe he purchased the standalone tilt kit. I think it may work differently

Anybody ordered from them recently? I placed my order couple weeks ago and so far only partial order is shipped. The main item (mirror kit) has not shipped and I have been unable to get in touch with the store. They are neither replying to emails or messages on FB.
