Passenger mirror stuck on dim
Ok. Two problems.
1. Taking picture on mirror with out looking silly. 2. Passenger mirror is stuck on dim. It's driving me crazy now that I no longer have my track car that was rarely washed. Any suggestions on this topic?

Is the interior mirror stuck on dim as well? Maybe a system reset per the manual would help. See.. stop fjording streams with that beast!

Try turning the mirror-dimming off (there's a button on the bottom of the interior mirror). Is the passenger-side mirror still dimmed? If it is, there's something wrong with the mirror itself. Otherwise, there's probably something wrong with the electronics.

I see the problem. Your shirt is unbuttoned too far and the shear awesomeness is triggering the dimmer.

Maybe is the glare from the chest waxing?

This isn't, by any chance, a Daytona Prototype is it?

At his birthday party, it was decided that Gary's new handle should be "Baywatch"
