    How to: JDM Power Folding Mirrors Rewire

    this is assuming you have the jdm switch AND plug with wires coming out of it...

    JDM Folding Power Mirrors:

    Use the existing plug from the OEM mirrors. (The one that connects to the door…its obvious) cut all wires there but leave enough wire to splice JDM harness.

    JDM Mirror harness OEM Plug harness
    Blue <------> White
    Yellow <------> Green
    White <------> Blue

    The other two wires out of the JDM mirror harness are for the folding function. You must run two new wires to switch.

    JDM Mirror Harness NEW WIRE JDM Switch Harness
    Green ------------ Brown
    Orange ------------ Sky Blue

    JDM Mirror Switch
    Cut the wires from the OEM switch…leave enough to work with and splice as follows, starting from the OEM wires.

    OEM Wires JDM Switch Harness
    N/A <------> Green/white
    N/A <------> Black/yellow
    Black/silver stripe <------> Black/silver stripe
    Blue/yellow <------> Orange/blue
    Green/black <------> Orange/black
    Orange/blue <------> Blue/yellow
    Orange/black <------> Green/black
    Orange/yellow <------> Red/yellow
    Blue <------> Blue/silver stripe

    Some corrections:

    Mirror Switch wiring :

    Green/white and Black/Yellow from the JDM switch are actually for Illumination. It works and lights up the switch. It uses the same color wires that are left on the oem wiring.

    I got the switch and the module that is under the dash from the JDM car they took it off. I will take some pics when i get home.

    Since you don't have the module, I believe it give you the option to when you want your mirror to open and use what ever trigger, like when the car turns on, or when you disarm your alarm like that. So you don't have to do it manually all the time.

    you should be able to use the relay module from a toyota or hondas since those are easier to find than mitsubishis. the honda one i believe is the most common, you just have to make sure you have the wiring diagram so that you know what to hook up where.

    hey cali. do you have a pin diagram for the switch?

    the reason i say that is that the 8g jdm mirror switch

    looks like the 7g jdm mirror switch

    and the 6g jdm mirror switch


    so if the pin layouts are the same then they might just be the same exact switch which would make wiring the 7g and 6g cars almost as easy.

    i checked the 8G JDM wiring against my jdm mirrors, and not one wire matches up (color wise at least), so i guess it's completely different. if you have a pinout for the 8g that'd be awesome
