    I am waiting on some sports mirrors from Tim and I am a little confused. :hmmm: He said that the driver’s side mirror does not need to be connected to the battery to use it. He said it’s like a manual vehicle. You don’t need batteries or to hook it up to the battery for it to work. So im guessing it uses motion type power? Like a Rolex?
    I have never hurd of such a mirror. Could someone explain to me please...? :anyone:


    Thanks!

    Its driver’s side remote and passenger side manual, I know it’s not a manual mirror! :16suspect

    He said is like a manual car you don’t need batteries when you coast and pop the clutch the car will start. So how does the remote driver’s side mirror work? If it doesn’t attach to any power source and if it does attach to a power source, where could I attach it...? :hmmm:

    Thanks

    They are cable operated. There are three cables running from the inside of the mirror, to a knob on the inside of the car that when you move, pushes and pulls the cables so the mirror moves. Hope this answers your question.(y)
