Default Ganador Mirror installation help

can someone please post the Ganador instructions/wiring diagram for the Z or G?

need to figure out which wires to splice from factory harness to the Ganadors.


Mirrors have four wires (oem only has three)
1 - brown
2 - black
3 - blue
4 - black

2 and 3 are connected. i'm thinking this is the (+)? and the brown is (-) and the black #4 is ground. is this correct?

PumpedVA, VOlk350z. anyone? thanks

Ask Howard@Technosquare since he installed a ganador mirror recently on a g35 which is basically a Z ganador mirror.

i figured it out. i didnt want to bother howard...

OK

OEM side harness, three pin connector:
Driver & passenger side on 2003 track model,
Pink Yellow and Blue.

Pink goes to Pin connector 2 & 3 on Ganador, (common ground for both motors)

Yellow goes to pin connector 4. This controls LEFT RIGHT movement.

Blue wire goes to pin connector 1. This controls UP DOWN movement.

man. what a PITA... oh well. i got it done.

visibility wise, they're smaller so if you're used to seeing your rear fender and then other lane, then you might have a little hard time adjusting mentally for these.

i decided to change from my Autotechnic mirrors cuz my roomate who parks next to me in the garage or people at work keep bumping into my passenger side mirror and its a PITA to adjust manually.

weight comparison, these are about the same as stock. i picked mine up used, hence the slightly longer than usual install time. i dunno how the new kits come if they're 'plug-n-play' if they are, then yea. probably a 20 minute install job each side.

picts of the harness:

(note 2 & 3 are common ground for both motors)



stock harness


here's a pict of the 4 pin connector adapter i made (0.100" 4 pin female i got at Fry's Electronics.)


my black wire is to connected to pin 2&3, which goto purple on OEM.
my red wire is connected to pin 1, and blue on OEM (up down)
my green wire is connected pin 4, and yellow on OEM (left right)

22 AWG wire throughout, solder w/ resin flux and e-tape it all up.
