Installing a mirror tap on 2013 Camaro, which wires? - Page 4 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Look at the diagram on the panel door. It's like F17 I think. It's the 12v source for the console (it's located between the two relays).

@ZL1-PA... What length of mirror tap do you need to run for the airbag tap?

I installed this using airbag light as done by ZL1-PA
You will want the 15"
When I bought the product, this is the length the company recommended for this exact installation and it works great

Any input available for getting to the airbag light assy in a convertible? The light is above the console and not in it on mine.

How long mirror tap cable is required if I were to use the airbag light on my 2013, but use the suction cups to mount my Valentine 1 on the left side of the mirror?

You can test first to make sure you have a good connection by turning the ignition on and waiting to see if the radar detector turns off and on.
This is an installation on my 2014 ZL1 - red rock.

The 2nd last photo shows how you run the wire thru the headliner.
The last photo shows where the wire lands before you put the mirror wire cap back on.

None of this May make sense or you may not be able to tell what the pictures are until you have yours apart.

Enjoy

Hard-wired my V1 today to the airbag light per the above using the Hidden Mirror Cord from Safe-N-Sound1 (http://www.safe-n-sound1.com/Valentine%20DC%20HM.html).

What mirror tap size are you using? You know the actual pin size?
Seems the wire length is 15" is best suited but what about the insert pins?
Thanks,

That's a 3rd party mirror I do believe. I've seen a few providers for various sources (such as cameras), but I don't recall names atm.
