The side mirrors with turn signal and auto-fold cost $285. ~$40 for paint and ~$40 for control switch. Yes, I intend to install it with auto-fold feature.

I don't know the shipping cost yet until next week. The dealer asked to come to pick them up next week since I ask it to paint as Taffeta White. I think it is cheaper than in the US anyway.

I am downloading wiring diagram now.

Have you checked the Taffeta White paint code number ( NH-758 ). It may not be 100% like US.

Thai color specs

- Alabaster Silver Metallic ( NH-700 M ) < Silver >
- Nighthawk Black Pearl ( B-92P ) < Black >
- Silver Stone Metallic ( NH-630M ) < Grey >
- Cerulean Blue Metallic ( BG-53M )
- Taffeta White ( NH-758 ) < WHITE >
- Rallye Red [ R-513 ] < RED >

And now yellow, but I don't know the code.

Do the base model mirrors fold manually in the US?

They also have the automatic folding mirror. When you lock the doors the mirrors fold. Only $42 US.

Base on specifications, yes but I don't know for sure since I have 09 FIT Sport. They are body-colored folding power side mirrors .

wow. that looks like it costs big $$$. good luck w/ the install.

I just bought the ebay ones from thailand...which to me was alot already ($100 bux). fitment was kinda crappy (some ends jus won't snap in) and some areas didn't have paint..or was a real light coat. weird thing was it came w/ an extra wire....i wired it up and it has blue leds too. so i had it wired to a switch inside cuz im probably wont use it often....or at all. lol.

Power Side Mirrors with turn signal circuit diagram

I will install heated side mirrors with integrated turn signal base on these circuit diagrams. If you connect circuit 1 and circuit 2 together, you will get a complete side mirrors and rear defoger circuit. Circuit 3 shows RC switch pins, colors, etc.

The ones you bought on eBay are after-market. My side mirrors are Honda OEM including paint. I don't have any fitment issues.

Where did you buy them from? Turn signal on the mirrors are after-market parts, not OEM.

I bought it from a Honda dealer in Thailand with part numbers and paint code. They came with Honda packages and receipt.

I just installed RC swith. It is PnP. I also tested side mirrors and they worked as they should.

I also bought heated mirrors from a Honda dealer in Canada. Since JAZZ in Thailand does not come with heated mirrors. Just 2 wires hook up on each side to rear defogger.

nice. i like how everyone on here goes for the most intricate mods...even though it results in standard options of other fits/jazz from other countries. lol. why can't these options be easily available or standard.

btw: its too hot in hawaii for heated mirrors. lol. nice touch though.

If anyone has part numbers or add'l info on heated mirrors for the 09-10 Fit, please come forward... Is it just the mirror lens itself that needs replacing, or also a whole new enclosure?
