Hey all I just bought a Valentine One and I was wondering if it is possible to hardwire to the powered rear view mirror? Is it a switched circuit? Would I need something like this: http://www.mirrortap.com/gallery.html

Power tap cord.

I haven't seen any DIY guides specific to the IS 350 yet so any help would be nice. Right now I have a power cord coming from my armrest which looks crappy.

I'm doing the samething and i googled about that and i found this thread on here:

It sounds pretty accurate too and when you order a V1 it should come with a wire sets to do a hard wire to the mirror plus a visor clip and windshield mount

I just ran mine down the pillar to the fuse box. Super fast and I dont have to worry about stuffing the little box somewhere and having it rattle.

So from what I am gathering from the other post that was linked, I should get the MirrorTap and tap into Pin 1 and Pin 2??


Pin 1 (Blue): Ignition Power
Pin 2 (Puple): Ground
Pin 3 (not on ewd?)
Pin 4 (Green): Signal for light control
Pin 5 (White): Signal for light control (both are MPX)
Pin 6 (Pink): Power

I have the mirror tap and I am pretty sure I tapped into (1&2) the blue and purple. I used another thread to source my info and the harnesses were the same. Mine works perfectly.
