The 2008 Nissan Rogue is one lucky small crossover vehicle. It has gone ahead with a good start and now the leading supplier of automatic-dimming rearview mirror has decided to ship its product to be used for interior rearview mirrors for the 2008 Nissan Rogue. None other than the Gentex Corporation itself made the announcement of its plan to ship its automatic-dimming rearview mirrors to the 2008 Nissan Rogue. Gentex shipping for the 2008 Nissan Rogue is beneficial to the Japanese automaker as the model is Nissan’s first entry to the small crossover SUV market and so it needs to be equipped with the high-quality Nissan parts especially since it targets the auto markets of U.S, Canada and Mexico.

Enoch Jen, the Senior Vice President of Gentex Corporation, said, “Gentex is excited to be a partner with Nissan on the automaker’s first foray into the small crossover SUV market. We look forward to continuing to build our relationship with Nissan and working with them to offer innovative products on its expanding vehicle lineup.”

The Nissan Rogue will then be available with an auto-dimming mirror with HomeLink or with both a compass display and HomeLink as part of its optional Leather Package on the AWD SL trim-level vehicles. the compass feature makes use of the proprietary Z-Nav technology of Gentex. This has a very sensitive and highly-accurate sensor which determines the vehicle’s directional heading. The automotive mirrors that Gentex Corporation provides automatically darken in response to the headlight glare of rearward-approaching vehicles. And HomeLink is Johnson Control’s fully integrated wireless control system.
