double DIN Auto Dim, Ambient Temp & Compass Mirror Tell me more.

Pretty straightforward. Auto dimming mirror with a display that shows the ambient temperature and compass direction.
It replaces your stock mirror.. bolt in, one screw.
The ambient temp sensor gets mounted up front. Recommended location is beside the diff vent tube by the radiator, but I mounted mine up under the drivers side front fender.
Harness runs along the top of the windshield and down the a-pillar and if you have a later model TJ is hidden in the trim. I used black hot glue and glued it in place. You can't see it if you're not looking for it.
Some TJs have the harness and sensor stock. It would be under the defrost vent trim on the top of the dash on the passenger side.. I think. Mine didn't so I bough the kit from
The TJ Mirror Company. I have the dual display, with auto dim, ambient temp and compass. They make one with just auto dim & the temp and another with auto dim temp, compass and Home Link programmable remote compatibility.
I have have an extra Double Din mirror (Auto Dim, Ambient Temp & Compass). And might have an extra sensor. I'd let go cheap. They are just sitting in my parts cabinet. I was going to try to make the harness but never got around to it so I just ordered the full kit. PM me if you're interested.
Here are the instructions for making the harness.
