Mirror Tap Power for 2016 F82

Hi guys - for what it's worth...anybody considering a Mirror Tap for a 2016 will need to use the power going to the rain-sensing unit. I could not pick up more than 9v going into the rear-view mirror, which was not enough to operate my Valentine 1. You'll see from the pics I tapped into the purple harness.

The only downside is that the Valentine will turn off, but delayed after accessory power shuts off. So I can lock the car and a few small LED's will stay on around the console...it took several minutes before the power on the Valentine finally turned off automatically but it will do it.

I hope this is helpful!
