current model AMBER compass temp mirror?

I have been searching for a couple of hours for a compass temp mirror with Amber display. The Nissan OEM only has compass.

Anyone know of a vendor selling a compass temp mirror with Amber display?

Whitey,

Am I missing something? I don't see that he is selling the 21 or 51 model currently. I do see him selling the 20 and 50. Is the 21 the amber version and the 20 the blue?

I have a question into neverenoughauto to see if his Getex50-GENK21A is the amber color display

Hey Uturn

My bad (I have that on things I want to buy Fronty list too) I see that the action had recently ended - item # 130721988466

however, I would maybe contact this user too- wembleysells - typically I see he has a few of them on ebay - not sure if he just has not re-listed

Pretty sure the 51 is the mirror with Homelink.

I have the stock one with homelink, compass and temp in blue, it really doesn't look bad at all.

Thad,

Thanks for putting me on to wembleysells. I contacted him in ebay and he modified the standard 50-GENK20A to display in amber for a $20 upcharge.

Received it today. Hopefully I will get it installed before the new year to see if it is actually amber.

Thanks again!

No Problem I had contacted him the other day as well - I guess they changed it from the 21/20 51/50 - I am going to order one from him as well - let me know how the install goes!

The install went fairly well. I am slow so it took me over two hours. One of hardest parts was finding a source to tell me what is constant hot and switched hot in the kick panel. Of couse now I can not find the web site. Second challenge is that the connectors provided that slice through the insulation and "bridge" the two wires together don't work. I tried it on the switched hot and it did not connect on the mirror wire as it was too small. I was afraid that it would damage the truck wire on the always hot. So I cut the wires and used butt connectors. Routing the temperature probe was easy. Getting the connetor where the temp probe connects in up under the head liner was a wigglling proposition but I got it in.

Install looks clean and the amber lighting makes it look factory. I love it. The whole intall is within the reach of a moderate DIYer. Just make sure you know which wires to tie into before you start.
