I got it at Mazdastuff.com they had some nice add on to the MP5
I had it installed at a car stereo install shop who I know the owner. It is really nice the auto dimming is cool.

My P5 has the wizz bang mirror as well. But they showed me 2 large wire harness' that they had to run first before installing it.

FYI... Those of you that think you have "GPS" in your mirror probably have illegal ashes in your ashtray. It's a compass! Huge difference.

I may have used the wrong words sorry! I do know that it has to sensors one for temp and one for direction this sensor is installed
under the vehical I had to drive in a very slow circle once is was installed and is very acurate. It has to work on some sort of GPS??

A GPS cannot use satellites to tell you which direction you're facing...it uses a lowly compass. The mirror has a compass unit in the housing...the underbody is temp only (all that metal down there would really mess it up). A GPS receiver would have to be LOS on the top of the car.
