Auto dim / Compass mirror

[JollyGreen]

Picked up a mirror from a Deville at the yard today. Mirror is in good condition with a few small scratches that are very small. Sell for $30 shipped.

That has a F and C light.. whats the deal with that.. is it a temp mirror too?

What do you mean by F and C light? It's got a compass and I believe that's it. The black box is a rain sensor. I couldn't figure out what it was, then remembered it came out of a Cadillac. Did some research and apparently that's what it's for.

Fahrenheit and Celsius where the compass letters light up.. so it looks like the mirror is capable of giving the temp..

I don't think this mirror displayed temp although it may be capable. I believe the temp readout on the Deville's was on the cluster, not on the mirror. There are 5 wires coming out of it, just like most of the temp/compass mirrors. Of course I could be wrong.

Wires coming out of the mirror are on the right.
