Default stupid question...auto dimming mirrors

ok, i know i probibly seem stupid lol. but i have a 2004 enthusiast and when i baught it the idiot didnt know what model he had, given that he had it for 3 years and only put 12,990 miles on it, ive put almost 2500 on it in just 5 weeks .

to my question, im guessing i have the enthusisast because i have TCS and LSD...but i have no idea what a auto dimming mirror is thus i dont know what is it does haha. can someone explain this to me?

Jake

most rearview mirrors have a lever under the bottom that you flip at night to direct the light from cars behind you away from your eyes... auto-dimming mirrors do this without being moved as they are light sensitive... there is no lever on the auto-dimming rearview mirrors and you never have to move them...

a auto dimming mirror is exactly how it sounds. Your rear view mirror auto dimms at night when a car's headlights behind you shine in your mirror and blind you.

The mirror is explained in the owners manual. Do you have a manual?
