NJ, is that monitor bright enough? Does it automatically turn on when u put to Reverse? That attaches onto the existing mirror right? Thanks for info! <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
I was driving today (bright sunshine) with sunglasses on, and I had no problem viewing it at all.
It turns on automatically when put in reverse and it does attach to the OEM mirror. The sound is much better than I thought it would be.
Here is some tech info:
SAVV MIRROR

Nj H2 do you mind, How much was the mirror? Also, I don’t see the temp or direction, did you lose that feature?

NJ, when I was considering the SAVV, I want to take a dremel, cut-off the plastic & grind-off the silver (from mirror to clear glass), right where the stock temp/compass display is. Do you thinks this is possible? Or does the monitor's circuit board overlaps that area? Imho, yours look better than stock too!

Don`t dremel the silvering off. You`ll end up with an etched square. Try using a single-sided blade to scratch off the silvering and not scratch the clear glass.
I was going to buy that rearview mirror set-up but I didn`t want to lose the temp feature.

Yes, you can't see the temp and direction since the Savv mirror covers it up. It's still there you just can't see it. It was $425.00

I don't know if you could do that. Personally, I wouldn't since you could ruin the Savv, or at least it's value if you ever sell it.
I don't care about the direction because I have the NAV in the mirror but I can say I do miss the temp but the good way outways the temp.

NJ, after install, I doubt I'd ever remove it to sell seperately from H2. My concern was if the lcd board covers the area in front of the temp/compass. The temp is useless, but the compass is important to me, & it would suck if I need to get a stick-on compass for my cool H2!!
Dennis, the dremel was for the plastic casing. I was thinking of using a buffing wheel & chemicals to remove the silver (masking area).
