Gentex Mirror

Has anyone tried the $150 (buy it now) compass/temp mirror on ebay. It's a non gentax compass/temp mirror and just wondering if it works the same as the Gentex?

Is it made by Donnelly? They're the other major electrochromatic mirror maker. A quick search of the Acura forums (they use the Donnelly as OEM) show that some have ruptured or have hairline cracks from the inside out. They have been bought by Magna though so they might be better now.

The mirror I bought on E-Bay was a Gentex but the seller didn't know it so he didn't include it in the auction title so there were few "lookers".

the one I saw is made by Exon Science. They look very nice but would like to have a idea how they work. A little cheaper than the Gentex mirrors

But where exactly is the temperature probe to be mounted. I have mine behind the grill and still get upper temperature readings when at idle.
