    I figured it out. Seems like it’s a twist on/off. All good.
    Just orient the mirror 45 degrees to the right then rotate counter clockwise to secure

    Good info for the DIY crowd. I think most owners are reluctant to touch a trim tool or screwdriver when it comes to their F cars. Possible reason is that when I inquired about installing a pigtail for my V1, my dealer looked concerned and said he wouldn't risk the warranty implications. I contained my chuckles and went after the 8 minute job with reckless abandon.

    Keep a close eye on battery voltage as you start to use it, and let us know how it goes!

    I believe it’s operating properly so far, radar only powers on when ignition is on and shuts off on accessory mode. I tapped the mirror harness at the red and black wires. Measured with a voltmeter and it was +13V
