Nope.

It's a big square plug taped up in the foam and attached to the sunroof wiring ;)

Pop the passenger side upper A post trim... Does the wiring match what you can see?

Each to their own, but I don't really rate these auto dimming mirrors. I had one in my Omega & had a bit of tape over the front light sensor to keep it permanently dimmer and though my Merc's driver's door mirror matches the interior mirror & also auto dims I prefer the old style manual dim ..... I leave both Smarts' mirrors in dim all the time

I'm tempted to fit the spare dipping mirror I had for the Omega, to the Metro. I've got to run power for the dashcam, so adding the mirror will just need the windscreen mount.

not sure will check tomorow to dark and cold ;D
Squeak said the mouse ;D

Worst case you can plumb it in using Haynes diagrams and power from the sunroof feed... Plug and play is easier ;)

Even my old GLS had the loom fitted ;)

I've never seen the loom in a non-Elite.  It is present in Elites that have the Sports Seat option (and thus lose the memory seats and autodip mirror)
