In plain English
Gentex makes the auto-dimming rearview mirror that darkens against headlight glare — and holds roughly 90% of that global market. It manufactures almost everything in one Michigan town and ships mirrors, cameras and electronics to nearly every automaker, plus the electrochromic windows that dim on Boeing 787s.
In simple terms
One mirror, almost every car
Gentex turns glass and chips into the auto-dimming mirror that darkens against headlight glare, then ships it to nearly every automaker — directly or through Tier 1 integrators. The same electrochromic technology dims the windows on a Boeing 787.
