I have one in my trailblazer and it's nice but ur likr me with 5% on the rear glass you don't need it. Tint is cheaper and easier than the mirror to redo the cobalt a next week is $140 to strip and redo proffecionally. I have my TA 20% front and 5% on hatch and t tops I wanna get the sunroof on the cobalt do so I don't have to slide the cover closed during the day here. I do like those mirrors always though they were a waste till my last few cars with them

This doesn't affect onstars functionality, right?

not at all, if you have it and do the mirror swap(as long as you get the mirror with onstar still) then its not going to change anything

I know this thread is old but to the person that started this thread & especially to the person that posted the schematic of the mirror connector... THANKS!

Because of this thread I resolved an issue I always had with my car... no compass. I ordered a mirror from an 07 HHR off ebay from LKQ for $40. I went to install it & if it hadn't been for the schematic I wouldn't have gotten the map lights to work. Those are so cool to have. Besides adding the arm rest, this is my favorite mod
