Just installed my Valentine V1 with the Blendmount and mirrortap. See this thread: http://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/blen...ine-v1.940943/

When you remove the rear view mirror, and disconnect the electrical connector, pin 1 on the mirror side connector is ground, pin 4 is +12V (switched via ignition). I pushed the mirrortap pins into these connector pins with needle nose pliers, and reinstalled the mirror. The link above has some pictures that I took of the completed installation so you can get an idea about how it all came together. Really easy, 30 minute install, good luck!

what do you mean by panels? There is a plastic wire cover that covers the wires and bolt to the mirror. You can pry that off with fingers, or carefully with a tool.
