Hi all. I recently obtained some JDM Ist parts (I sell JDM parts for a living). Whenever possible, I make plug and play wiring harnesses for electrical items that I sell (mostly for power folding mirrors). I need to get a couple of clear pics of the mirror couplers for the xA (the 04-05 type...without the turn signals incorporated). I need to see if the JDM couplers are the same size/shape and, if so, to see if the pin-outs are the same or, if not, to obtain couplers to match the xA's vehicle side couplers.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

 

The JDM couplers look like this:





The size and shape of the couplers may be the same but the USDM xA mirror wiring would more than likely NOT have the wires which are noted with yellow arrows in this next pic (the orange wire and pink wire on the mirror side coupler and the lime green wire and the blue/yellow wire on the vehicle side coupler):



If no one is able to get pics, a visual verification would be a step in the right direction.

thanks

 

I almost forgot...a few of other questions (that don't require anyone to take any pics... )

Did all 04-05 xA's come with the tweeters in the mirror door bezels? These are what I'm referring to:



Did all 04-05 xA's come with the key cylinder light? Again, this is what I'm referring to:



Lastly, if a USDM xA owner wanted the 'ist' dash storage box front panel/lid, would they need to have the whole box assembly to do the swap or is just the front panel/lid enough? These are what I am referring to:

The complete box assembly:



Just the front panel/lid:



Prior thanks for your help!!

 

to the last post, yes, no, yes.

 

Thanks for your response. I just want to clarify something. 'No' meaning that not all of them came with the key cylinder light or none of them did and 'yes' meaning they need the whole box or just the panel/lid portion?

 

well mine doesn't come with the key light, i don't know about anyone else's car. and yes to the lid portion.

 

None of the xAs came with the key cylinder light. It is a separate accessory that you can purchase from the dealer, but is kind of costly for some odd reason. Pretty rare in my opinion -- I've only seen one dealer advertise it.

 

i wouldn't mind some folding mirrors for under 300

 

Thanks...definitely good info.

I have never taken the mirror off .... how hard would it be to swap the folding mirror if the harness will work?

 

If the couplers/pin-outs are the same, it's as simple as removing 3 bolts from each mirror. They're found behind the interior mirror/tweeter bezel. Once the mirror is replaced, the 4 wires (2 per mirror) coming from the modified JDM switch that I have put together are ran from under the dash to each mirror (going out through the hole where the wire looms are for the doors). That would be it. I've made this same plug-n-play setup for the Scion xB mirrors (JDM Toyota bB) literally DOZENS of times. It's quite simple.

 

Any idea where I could find a plug and play wiring harnesses with mirror couplers just like the one you are showing in the picture above only for a 2005 scion xb? I bought after market mirrors with dual led markers. I've got them hooked up but I cannot seem to get the power mirrors to operate yet and I know for sure I am missing the "male" mirror side coupler.

 

Where can we get the panel?????
