I am considering the purchase of the Prius auto dimming mirror. I have never used this kind of device so I have some questions.
Does the mirror provide either outside temperature or compass direction heading?
When the Prius is shifted into reverse does the anti-glare function turn off?
When I use a regular mirror and forget to change it back to regular mode it is difficult to see pedestrians at night in parking lots etc.
Finally, I read on another Prius site that the use of a translucent blue piece of plastic enhanses the performance of the anti-glare function. The site said to tape the plastic to the mirror sensor which was on the front windshield side of the mirror. I thought the sensor was supposed to "see" the traffic in the rear.
Any help would be appreciated.
