I take mine to Best Buy and they wire them up for about $50 usually. With a Mirrormount

Thanks. Did Best Buy wire to an auxiliary switch?

Can someone confirm this is the correct mount for the F-150 with ACC?

Details:

I updated my V1, used the Blendmount and MirrorTap for power, it's the 10" long version and used the .040" taps.

For those with the power mirror and front camera. Here is how to tap into the harness. Use the white connector facing the drivers side to tap for radar detector. Black wire for ground. Solid yellow wire for power. It is the second yellow wire from the black one. See pics.

Also, the plastic cap doesn't use any clips. It has a male plunger type holder on each side of the plastic piece that covers the lower part of the mirror. Pull firmly straight down on both sides and it will pop so, out. The top piece is held in place by the bottom piece. You just squeeze on both sides of the top piece near the mirror stud and it will pull off. Make sure to put the lower piece back on first when reinstalling. Then just pop the top piece back on. I did drill a small hole for the mirrortap to run through so the covers to fit together properly.

Hope this helps.
