Rear view mirror connections?

[jsilva]

I bought my MS6 with a lame non-original rear view mirror. So I got a used mirror that the seller said was from an MS6. I don’t know if it actually is, but it’s a much better mirror. It fits the OEM base which I bought separately from the dealership.

It has extra features and I’m guessing this is from a GT model as where mine is the Sport model. I know I can wire in a power supply to get the auto-dimming working at least but I have no idea what pins to use.

Does anyway know anything about how I could get the extra features working in part or full? And what does that circuit board do?

It's a Donnelly auto dimming mirror. Probably the harness for it.

So not one that came on an MS6? Just wanting to be clear. I like it because it’s way better than the previous one. I’d simply like to enable more features if possible.

I'm not 100% on that. I've not heard of them, only Homelink

Ok, perhaps I can contact Donnelly about which pins to use to power the auto dimming.

Yeah. I doubt this is oem. Homelink has been the go to for many years.

I found online that the Donnelly mirrors use pin 1 as +12V and pin 6 for ground. Once I have the time to test this out I’ll report back on whether the auto-dimming works or not.
