It seems the previous owner added several OEM accessories:

A) "Parking Support System" LED indicator;
B) "Reverse 'Tilt' Mirror" bypass switch.

The LED is self-explanatory.

The reverse mirror is a module that automatically tilts the mirror down when the car is placed into 'Reverse.' I do not know for certain if this switch allows you to enable or disable the automatic feature. Also, being a RHD car, I'm not sure if only the Left/"Passenger" mirror tilts or if both mirrors tilt.

I edited out of your pic the ETC (Electronic Toll Collector) card reader. Outside of Japan that reader is completely useless.

Man, that auto mirror drop option would be awesome. My TL has it and I miss it every time I need to park the G next to a curb. 1st world problems.

There is a OEM kit available (p/n:B5900-3LZ0A) but IMO it is too expensive ($150 not including S/H from Japan), plus there is no way of knowing which mirror (or both) does it actually control.

Also, being you have a 6MT- there would be other compatibility questions. KPTechnologies had a universal module that was available but now that they are out of business/ production...

I know they don't look nice, but a small set of stick on blind spot mirrors lets you see the curb when parking. I love having them personally.

Yeah not really feasible or cost effective.
That’s funny, I had the KPTechnologies auto window roll up module on my TSX.

Something to consider. Thanks.

I believe KPTechnologies is still in business they've just moved from a retail provider to a wholesale supplier. Not sure who their distributors are though

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
All I know is that his modules can't be found anywhere... it is either OEM or cheap, Chinese crap that rarely works.

I went through two (2) different power folding mirror modules (Amazon & eBay) that never worked before I said "f-it" and got the OEM one from Japan... ah well...

(Sigh) Sure hope my modules last until the car is ready to become trade-in fodder
