Disable auto-dimming mirrors
 

I posted this in the electronics section but maybe this is a better spot for it.... Does anyone know how to turn off the auto-dimming rear view mirror / driver side mirror in a 3LT Z51? I'm going to put tint on the windows and am a bit concerned that between the tint and the auto-dimming it may be too dark at night. I looked in the manual but it doesn't state how (or if it is possible) to turn the feature off. Reading on some other forums apparently there is a sensor that can be covered to stop the auto-dimming from working but after looking I can't seem to find it. Does anyone have any advice or can point me in the right direction? Thanks.

I have not checked it on the C7 but on other cars I have had the outside mirror dims when the inside one does. There is a light sensor on the inside mirror. I am sure that you could cover that sensor or disconnect one of the wires that control the mirror inside the door panel and it would turn off the auto dim feature. I have tinted windows on my Camaro and the dimming does not bother me. Just remember that this information could be worth just what you paid for it. NOTHING:confused: :happy0180:
