FS: Valentine 1 Homelink Mirror w/Compass

Background:
A lot of Evo owners can't stand the factory flip mirror in a $40k car. This gives you guys with a V1 an excellent option to gain a multitude of features on something you will never find on another car. This is a direct bolt on for the Evo X. Evo 8's and 9's require a different windshield anchor.
I was able to get a hold of a very special type of mirror that allows light to shine through but hides whatever is behind it when turned off. It was a rather expensive piece of hardware but it one of the only types of mirrors made by Gentex which allows these conversions to be done. Gentex is the company that manufactures the Homelink Brand mirrors.
Features
Auto-Dimming
Homelink Garage Door Openers
3-Axis Compass
Integrated Remote Display for the Valentine 1 Radar Detector
Every stock feature of the mirror still functions just like stock, except now the V1 display is integrated into the mirror. This does not replace the Valentine 1 Radar Detector. It simply allows the user to mount the display in a more hidden position in the vehicle.
Remote Display
To allow for increased recognition time and ease of use, the band indicators were changed to Blue for X band, Green for K band, Yellow for Ka band, and Red for laser. The color scheme indicating an increase in severity.
To continue the threat indicator theme, the colors of the signal strength indicator were changed from all red to 2 green, 2 yellow, and 4 red.
This allows the user to simply glance at the display and back to the road due to being to associate not just a certain, but now a visible color for each radar band.
Pictures
At certain angles, the display is slightly visible under direct light.
The mirror now has a plug for the V1 cord and the stock wiring harness. This allows the mirror to be modular for easy installation. The red button functions as the mute and mode button, just as the stock V1 button functions.
There will be a wiring harness included with the mirror. Three simple wires, Power, Switch, and Ground. All mirror functions are contained within the mirror. Installation can be performed by your local car audio shop. This unit is wired the exact same way the stock Valentine 1 Remote Display works with the hardwire kit included with every Valentine 1 Radar Detector.
Price
This includes the mirror, wiring harness and 1 year warranty as described below. This sale does not include a Valentine 1 Radar Detector.
$399 shipped with insurance to any of the continental 48 states. If using paypal, please be prepared to cover the 3% fee.
Warranty
This warranty covers labor and selective parts. This warranty does not cover broken, scratched, or chipped glass. This warranty does not cover failure of any component related to user abuse, negligence, or carelessness. This warranty does cover defects due to workmanship or faulty Valentine 1 components. This warranty is not transferable from the original buyer.
Options
I do have one more mirror I will be converting other than this one. I am able to change the color of the compass display, any of the V1 display, or the status leds on the mirror. If the current color scheme is not suitable, please send a PM with exactly what you would like.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions or comments.
