Auto dimming mirror

I bought a ford auto dimming mirror at junk yard for $10 and I'd like to put it in my 99 expy. Does any one have a wiring diagram showing the wiring of these so I can know how to hook it up ? Mine has 3 wires to connect it, a black, red and white. I'm thinking black is ground, red is either constant hot or switched hot, and the white is either of the same. Any help would be appreciated.

Never mind, I got it figured out. According to the owners manual for expy's with this mirror the auto dim shuts off when the vehicle is put in reverse so I figured out the wiring is black negitive, red switched positive, and the white is the reverse signal. I put it in and it works fine.
