Thanks for the help.

Go and look under the hood on the drivers side. On the firewall you should see a foil patch behind/below the brake reservoir. Take a small screwdriver or a piece of coathanger wire and poke a small hole through it. It is very soft like tinfoil.

Thanks Super 08, thats what I did. The mirror works great. I had to lengthen the power and the ground wires to get everything to reach. Other than that, this is a simple (but a bit pricey) upgrade.
