Different plugs early to late...either obtain the mirror/sensor to match your car loom or the tails to match the mirror and sensor you have :y

Pre or post facelift? That said, being ex job, all bets are off without seeing it... :-\

Would need to physically see the plugs to identify them... But absolutely no guarantees of what wiring is left in the roof :-\

That's sunroof and microphone plugs...

Keep digging, you're missing at least 2 plugs if not 3...

Might be behind the big foam block...

Plod could have used the wiring for all sorts, and simply chopped it out at the passenger kick panel ::)

All mime have still had all the plugs present, but the wiring wasn't always intact :-\

Follow my guide for dropping the headlining and see what's up there ;)

had the shell come back on monday from painter. refitted the loom today and ran up the passenger pillar to the head cloth. that was all the plugs there are. is it like the rear blind loom and might be a joining piece for the sensor? i hope

where is your guide?
