Abstract

An electrochromic mirror reflective element sub-assembly for a vehicular rearview mirror assembly includes a front substrate having first and second surfaces with a transparent electrically conductive coating at the second surface, and a rear substrate having third and fourth surfaces, with an electrically conductive coating disposed at the third surface. A perimeter sealing element is disposed between the second and third surfaces and bounding an interpane cavity between the front and rear substrates. The perimeter sealing element includes an adhesive strip adhered to respective perimeter regions of the second and third surfaces. The perimeter sealing element includes a first electrically conductive trace for electrically connecting to the transparent electrically conductive coating and a second electrically conductive trace for electrically connecting to the electrically conductive coating. An electrochromic medium is disposed within the interpane cavity and contacts the transparent electrically conductive coating and the electrically conductive coating.
