Why? - because the tint on the side, and rear view mirrors faded away after I clicked the button.

This may be an extremely old innovation but I've never come across it.
I find it to be rather intriguing...why isn't this sorta device placed on windows as well?...I don't really understand how it works but it's rather amazing to be able to click a button, and have the mirrors tint, or untint, at your command...

Altho it's probably expensive as hell eh?...
it's not a bad tint either its actually rather effective, except at night when the slightest bit of light makes the mirrors dim and you can't see anything behind you..

I suppose I should have put this under another section but too late now I guess...But I was thinking it'd be an interesting thing to have on the camaro..assuming it isn't TOO expensive...I have no clue tho..but seeing as how it's on a Lexus I'd guess it is..
If you were still typing that, it was not too late to move. Just copy/paste and put in the right section. Don't worry, I was happy to take the time for you.

About the windos, I'd love that option, but the added cost wouldn't be worth it. Do without and make mine less expensive, please!

nah it was an edit after I had already posted..
I tend to edit what I say very quickly after I post it due to clarity issues.
It's usually very early in the morning or extremely late at night (as in I SHOULD be asleep, when I post.
That or it's right before school and I'm in a rush.

Where have you been all your life, did you just fly in from Venus. They have had these mirrors for years. Hey, I think that rhymes.
