I just got a set of folding mirrors and I got the switch and the relay (don't know if it's good or not), but I need a wiring diagram, I searched and didn't come up with anything. Also everyone says the driver's side is convex, mine don't appear to be.

the first one is for a civic, the second one is for an inegra
the wiring should be relatively the same...
i'm going to be doing a write-up on how to modify the radio shack relay to close the mirrors when you push the button, instead of having to hold it down...
Have you installed them yet? You'll be able to tell that the mirrors are different when you sit in your car. I personally like the mirrors, it gives you a broader view, and I have no isssues with adjustment of the mirrors, everything works great for me.
Haven't installed them yet and it will probably be a while. I was kinda thinking once I'm actually looking through them it would probably be more noticable, I'm also going to have to try and switch housings, cuz the JDM's I got are in horrible shape.

You can swap the piece that mounts to the car, but not the actual housing of the mirrors (I don't think.. when I got mine, I looked and it didn't seem like I could).... maybe I'm wrong.

Member Gabe just swapped out the JDM motors onto his USDM housings. He has a 5th Gen, I would'nt see how they would be that much different? Just a hunch.
sup sup, i got the mirror installed but not wired up. and yes the mirrors are differemt i had to drive them on for like 2 hours. piss me off i couldn't see that well. but i swap the mirror from my usdm and pop them onto the JDM

ok as for gabe, did he have a 4th gen? mirror and just swap out the motor, or did he have a JDM 5th gen. i seem to be the only current JDM mirror guy right now. so all you bishes get ur JDM, i got no cameria to do a FAQ/Walk throught, i can help you as you go alont. as for the question about the mirrors, yes one is convex and one is concave. easiest and cheapest way to fix that. pop out ur stock USDM mirror, and pop them onto the JDM work perfect. ok the actually motor looks like it won't come out. it is weld or something to the actual housing. but i dindt' give it too much of an attempt. the motor is actually in the mirror part and not in the base part. it had lil tabs to try to force it otu, it was a no go for me cause i was tryint to get it to work. next as for the wiring, the mirror it pretty straight forword. the black wire is the negative and the other is positive. and the other 3 wires goes with teh mirror control. i plug my mirror into a 12 volt sorce and it open. reverse the current and they close. easy as that. w00t w00t.

No, the USDM mirrors have one concave, one convex(notice how there's only one mirror that says "Objects in mirror are closer than they appear"?), the JDM morrors are both concave, giving you a better area of view. It just takes a little getting used to, but it's better IMO. It's like those broadview rearview mirrors, it gives you a better area of view because they're concave.
actually for me, the JDM were the oposite from usdm, too much of a haste for me, so i just swap to USDM, if you wanna stick to JDM, that all good. it not like it goin to cost you money
