The connector you have looks like a sunroof connector but I think You have a sunroof so cant be that.

Ahh sunroof, nope don't have one.

Grr ah well.

You maybe able to modify this using the live and earth for the mirror its just a case of knowing which is which on the loom part.
But no gain, as all (except reverse) available from courtesy light....

You can get all from courtsey light, just splice onto it. Reverse feed (which I haven't done yet) from passenger kick panel.

Sounds simple enough!  :)

Do you think we might annoy the people across the road from you with 4 Omegas blocking their drive?  ;D

Sorry, no idea if using the memory functions - you'd need to look up on a wiring diagram.

Sorry being vague again basically like Tunnie I have a piece of loom with the connector in and would like to just wire this into the roof to get the mirror working.

So like me you just want it to work at night? - No memory seat options. (pointless for me as i don't have memory ones)

Then basically nixoro you will have the same setup as me, i too have the loom connector for the dimming mirror from the '95 elite.

Using that, as TheBoy says you can splice into the a live feed off the courtsey light & a reverse feed to earth it.

If you can hang on a few days I am sure I will get my fitted with the help of TheBoy, i'll then post up pictures of which wire goes where!  [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

And you've got no option to manually dip it as well :(. Nor a blind (which cuts down on dazzle from behind) :(.  

We'll try and get a how2 posted either at weekend or next week, as I'm busy on something else this week.

Its not all bad i was lucky to get a rear shelf with the blind in I'm sure it was in when i came over, maybe not though.

I usually put this up to kill the glare lol ;D
