Ok, for those this may help. I just finished this little project. I mounted my Audi Blendmount which works for the XFR along with their 12" Mirrortap for power. Remove the shell behind the mirror. Unplug the connector in order to handle it more easily. You will tap the black wire for ground. I did not have a brown/yellow like Chuck so I had to look for the switched power. It turned out to be the wire next and to the left of the black when the connector is plugged in. Sorry but I forgot to write down the color of the wire and realized it after all was put back together. In any case it took a couple of minutes to find it via trial and error. You can also try a voltmeter.

By the way, this is much easier and quicker than fiddling with the overhead console as long as you use one of these power tap-type wires.

Good luck!

 

Hey….good work…..can you send me a photo of the Blend-mount so I can see how it compares to what I have ? I did send you a photo of my mount but I guess you lost that too. I wish I could attach jpg to these messages…..but can not figure it out.

 

If you can share more info on how did you take it apart without making damage to the whole thing.
The more info the better.
Thanks.

 

You just squeeze it at the seams and it literally flies apart. It doesn't break but be ready to catch it. LOL!

 

 

Thanks…….by clicking on the "Original Link" the image is better and clearer and larger. I did not have that much room on the stem between the mirror and back mount, so I figured any Blend-mount would not work…..saw that you used the Audi model.

 

Yeap, its their mount for Audi, aud-002/bbe-2025. Very thin at the mounting point.

 

Thanks Chuck & Roswell I installed my Safe-n-sound stealth cord 2 days ago with you guys help from this post. My ignition switched +12v was brown & yellow but as stated the "needle" connections made this very simple to do. Thanks again!

 

You are quite welcome. Glad I was able to give back to our community.
