    073DEE13-61B5-47D4-B5CD-B7A95C8FC18A.jpg I’m installing a power mirror in place of my non-power “plain” rearview mirror and need to wire it to the 25 pin connector in the A-Pillar. How do I do so? This is what I’m working with:

    I.D. the 3 wires (I see a ground) and we may assist with the Tacoma Connector. (IN1)

    I’m sorry but I’m not able to pull off connector to get picture of underside (it seems pretty attached to A-Pillar) if I unclip wires will it set off airbags or anything? Here’s a picture that may or may not help, thanks for your help

    I have this information but I’m just not sure how to actually connect wires with provided wire harness... do I cut off all connectors at ends of wires and slide in the ends of wires into corresponding slots mentioned into 25 pin connector? Thanks!!

    Look from underneath, middle row...I can't see if the topside connector has them.

    You might even have this connector taped up in the overhead.

    Did you ever get this figured out? I'm hoping you found a fix to share.
