Just checking, its talking about the rear view mirror mounted on the windshield. If there is a button on the bottom of it then its auto dimming.

Yeah, just the inside center mirror, dimming side mirrors weren't available for these (not that I've ever seen anyway).

I believe some 02's had dimming side mirrors.. Exports do also.

Auto dimming side mirrors would be great, because there is always some d!ckbag who wants to hang out on your quarter with his brights on.
I just went through the 02-07 KJ factory parts manuals and even looked in the 08 KK for S&G's. No auto dimming side mirrors to be found. There are:
2003
Note; Sales Codes
[GT9] = Mirrors - Power Heated Memory F/Away
[GTB] = Mirrors - Power Heated
[GTJ] = Mirrors - Power
[GTP] = Mirrors - Manual - Fold Away
[GPF] = Mirrors - Manual - Fold Away Black
[GTS] = Mirrors - Power Heated - Fold Away
[GUW] = Mirrors - Power Heated - Fold Away

and 2006-07
Note;
Sales Codes:
[GT9] = Mirrors - Power Fold-Away
[GTB] = Mirrors - Power Heated With Arabic Lettering
[GTJ] = Mirrors - Power Heated Fold-Away
[GTP] = Mirrors - Manual - Fold Away
[GTS] = Mirrors - Power Heated

A memory mirror would be cool as well. Don't exist (at least factory stock, however there are aftermarket options available) unless someone can show a build sheet? I can post these pages if anyone would like to see the whole page.

Somewhere between being sane and insane!

Lift it and that cures that issue fast.Now I return the favor on those HID retro-fitted "angry weed eaters" that sit 1" off the ground,1 headlight in there drivers side mirror and the other in there rear view mirror at stop lights which takes forever to change here.

My build sheet shows "GNKP rear view auto dim mirror" under "optional equipment" and that is what I have. Side mirrors are not "auto dim".

Well ok then
And to correct my self only the driver
side was auto dim not the passenger
but both were heated
No one is calling you a liar, I just said it wasn't in any of the parts manuals. Usually (not always) that means it was not a factory build option (as in not available).

I am on the look out for the new owner
when I find him I will ask to snap a picture for you
the mirror had the little heater waves for defrost and said
"auto dimming" and had a noticeable square in 1 corner
also remember that I had an '03 with a 45RFE
so it was a early '03 meaning that is probably had a bunch of the '02 options
on it
