Rearview Mirror

[98ChilkootTrail]

Just curious if any one knows if the rear view mirror off of a 2001 will plug into a 1998 (the one on the windshield)? The 2001 looks like it bolts the to the roof instead of gluing to the windshield, which means i won't brake my windshield again with my stereo. Mine has the compass and temp display.

 

Thanks

They all use the overhead console to "hang" the mirror, whether it has the read out or not....did yours not have a console? That would be different, but you also have a Can model. ?

Yeah, my '98 doesn't have the mirror stuck to the windshield. I don't think any R50 Pathfinders have that set-up; it's attached to the overhead console.

I replaced the factory mirror on my 2001 and it was the same part number as a '97 mirror I found at a parts yard. even though Nissan changed the center console trim in 2001 (black plastic instead of dark gray) the overhead console did not change - it's still gray for 2001.

 

98ChilkootTrail, sounds like you have the optional auto-dim mirror with compass and/or temp that mounts to the glass. In the US I think it was a dealer-installed option only but maybe some of the Canadian vehicles had it from the factory. post a picture of your overhead console and I should be able to tell you if it will fit - I'm thinking you might just have a plastic trim piece that pops in to cover the hole for the mirror mounting bracket.
