Gentex 2ADMV VW/Audi Auto-Dimmign Rear View Mirror System
I paid $62.44 online at Amazon. Now they jacked the price up to $205.

I am worried about splicing the wiring for lights to get power. Any tips?

To be honest I do look in on the forum every now and then...As I have had the mirror upgrade done in this post I thought I could help out.
@Dan Greenberg It really isn't that hard provided you get the appropriate repair wire which enables the mirror to switch off when you select reverse gear(This might already be in the wiring loom that is on the mirror?). I'm surprised you haven't asked @DJAlix for some advice...?
