RLB-HILON Rear View Mirror Compatible with Subaru (Forester, Impreza, BRZ) — Direct-Fit Day/Night Manual Dimming

The RLB-HILON Day/Night Rear View Mirror is a direct-fit, manually dimming replacement mirror designed to restore clear rear visibility for compatible Subaru models.

If your factory mirror is scratched, loose, or no longer provides effective glare reduction, this OEM-style RLB-HILON unit offers the same mounting footprint and day/night flip action used on many Subaru vehicles. It’s built to fit a range of Subaru models and model years, giving drivers a straightforward way to maintain safety and comfort during night driving without rewiring or windshield modification.

Which Subaru models and years will this mirror fit?

This RLB-HILON mirror is manufactured to match the original dimensions and mounting style of several Subaru models so installation is usually plug-and-play or requires only the stock mirror button. Confirm fit with your vehicle year and trim before purchase.

• Subaru Forester: 2009–2013
• Subaru Impreza: 2006–2011
• Subaru Impreza WRX / STI: 2006–2014 (model-dependent)
• Subaru BRZ: 2013–2020

How does the day/night (anti-glare) function work and what does it require?

The mirror uses a manual flip-tab to change from the daytime reflective position to the reduced-glare night setting, lowering the intensity of headlights behind you. No electrical hookup is needed for the basic anti-glare feature, making it simple to replace without vehicle modifications.

• Manual flip tab switches between bright and dim modes
• No wiring required for day/night function
• Matches original mirror angle and size for accurate sightlines

Will installation be difficult and what tools are needed?

Installation is generally straightforward for anyone with basic hand tools and a little patience. The unit is made to mount to the factory mirror button or stalk; removal of the old mirror and sliding the new mirror onto the mount is often all that’s required.

• Typical install: remove trim, unclip old mirror, slide new mirror onto button
• Small flathead or trim tool and a socket/ratchet may be helpful
• Professional installation available if you prefer assistance

What should I expect in terms of durability and finish?

RLB-HILON mirrors are produced to automotive-grade standards for interior components and are finished to match OEM appearance. Expect a stable mount and glass designed to resist minor scratches and reduce distortion for safe rearward viewing.

• Automotive-grade housing with OEM-style finish
• Glass engineered for clear reflection and minimal distortion
• Secure clamp or button interface to limit vibration and movement

Who this is for: Drivers of compatible Subaru models (Forester, Impreza, WRX, STI, BRZ) who need a reliable replacement mirror with manual day/night functionality. It’s suitable for owners restoring OEM fit and finish after damage, upgrading worn interior components, or replacing a loose mirror without electrical changes. Check your vehicle’s model year and mirror mount type to confirm compatibility before ordering.
