Default Mirrortap Radar Detector for RCF

Anyone running a mirror tap with a radar in their RCF?

Trying to figure out the best way to install the radar without running any wires since our cigarette lighters are located so far back and specifically, which pins to tap to.


I have seen the amazon choice radar mount mirror wire power for 18.99 , but see mixed reviews.

Amazon Amazon

Anyone have a diagram of where the power and ground should go or which pin holes specifically?

This is the mirror tap I used, the kit comes different size pins for tapping which I preferred since I wasn't sure what size was needed.

Edit: I somehow can't paste the link here. It is MirrorTap MTX-1010 10" RJ11 (for most, including V1, radar detectors)
