i bought jdm folding mirrors from one of our members here, but can't figure out how to install them. i know there is sticky about this, but it's huge and messy. the jdm mirrors were taken from '94 st205 allegedly, and my celica is '95 usdm st. could someone help me with this issue? i just need a big picture about the whole installation procedure. i also have a jdm control switch as you can see in the pic. do i need a relay? if so what kind of relay?

i experimented wiring with a battery. mirror angle control functions normally but folding did not work. when connected to a battery, it sounds like whirling motor for a few seconds(and it stops) but no folding at all.when i push folding button, there is no click sound at all and nothing happens. i joined all the wires according to color matching. i wonder why this happens and if angle control works, does that mean the relay is not shorted and therefore good? by using two wires of mirrors directly, i checked the folding function and it works on and off(motor is working). if wiring is wrong, i don't think i can make it right and might end up using a separate switch for folding. anyone who has the same experience, please put your 2 cents in. bowdown.gif

*i did wiring according to the diagram below. all colors shown on the diagram were there, but pin arrangement was slightly different. i ended up using color matching, ignoring pin arrangement. Also, i connected #8 of the relay(on the diagram) to (+) of the battery instead of dome.
