Auto-dim mirror retrofit
Trying to retrofit the auto-dim interior mirror. I got the A pillar down as per instructions from the how to, but i can't see a connector.
Anyone with an idea how to make my own loom for it?

if you fit rain sensing wipers you lose some other wiper functionality.
As you have the A piller off, it may be worth running one or two additional wires in case you want to add anything else in future. You can leave the wires hanging below dashboard and in head lining macafee2 |

Is the fixing lug that is bonded to the windscreen the same for normal and auto dip mirrors?

Yes it is. If you want to remove the mirror just grip the base and twist the mirror left or right in line with the windscreen. There is a how-to on this forum. Explains it excellent and very simple to do. Been there, done that, got the t-shirt
