Photochromatic Rear View Mirrors

[dribble]

I know the IS300 has them, are there any implications of getting them on a IS200...

if so, has anyone had it done or knows where it can be done?

Costs would be helpful too!

:-)

TIA

what is a photochromatic mirror??

[GRiM]

Fancy mirrors that react to where the light is, and where the viewer is.

A bit like the Nokia 6110 I once had.

[wildrnes]

capable of changing color on exposure to radiant energy (as light) = photochromic

so i guess self diping ?mirrors B)

or what he said

When you've driven a car with them fitted, you never want to use a normal mirror again. At night is when you really benifit from them

Taken from the Lexus UK website..

see section on Suspension, Braking & Safety Systems

Photochromic rear view mirrors (automatic anti-glare)

I like them but one problem I've always found is that you can't see what the car is behind you at night, which means you can't see if its the old bill.

I found this to be a problem too, the idea is good though.

I thin they did them out in America....... I'll have to dig up the links........

[dribble]

Yeah the old bill can be a bit of a problem... espcially if the chunes are bangin enough that the sirens cant be heard...

That along with you not being about to see them, you would be looking like a ostrich with its head in the sand! ;-)

Zee, if you do find them/prices and suppliers would be v helpful for the accidently "ooppps i didnt see you when I cut u up" flashing of lights

Having been nicked by an unmarked police car who followed me, I'm pretty paranoid about what's behind me now, has it got two mirrors etc.
