Toyota accessory homelink mirror for Bronco

[raghu4026]

Ok, I have a stupid question. It has been so long since I ordered my WT with Lux that I just plain don't remember. Do all levels of Bronco come with the "Flippy Thing" on the bottom to adjust for headlights behind you? I haven't had a car with one of those in it for at least 20 some years, they all have had a self darkening feature about them. Did I order a Bronco with a "Flippy Thing" after all these years?

That's kind of funny if I did.

Yes, mirror has a manual flippy thingy to make it darker. I've never used it in any car because I always tint the windows

OP you are the man sharing this info and video. Always great to have options

Base Bronco doesn't have lighted vanity mirrors, therefore no power to the visor?

It seems like Ford used several “standard” wire harness. Has anyone with a base model checked to see if the plug for power is behind the visor bracket? It seems like there is a reasonable chance that the power is already there.

It’s 353 for the ford visor
It’s 144 for the Toyota

Ford visor is not powered if the key is not present, this mirror is.
My stuff in my garage is worth more than 200 bucks.

Since you ordered the Lux package, you will have a self-dimming rearview mirror. No dimming tilt switch for you, at least based upon the 2021 Lux model.

If somebody wants in your garage bad enough they're getting in it, just ask the guy who got his FE stolen by 2 girls and a crowbar. I'll take this mirror for $200 less.

I did not since the ford visor with homelink costs $300+

Very cool! Thanks for posting this. Bonus, I actually prefer the manual flip night time mirror versus the fancy automatic/modern versions. Great find!

Thanks for sharing.! IF….I ever do this and the likelihood is that I will do it…. I will never come on here and admit that I put a Toyota part on my Bronco.!

i was wondering if you could set up a shortcut using the MyQ DEVICE AND ASK SIRI to open the garage door? I have a ton of automation using SmartThings and Some others

does My Q have an app for the ford Bronco's internal OS so it pops up on the screen and allows you to open the garage when you are near it ? I wouldn't want to fumble around with a phone, its a great idea, but by the time you open the app and hit the button the purpose of the actual garage door button shows its value IMHO.

Technically, it's a gentex part that all manufacturers use
