New gentex mirror

Hello all, new owner here. I bought a 2013 OS 4wd. Was just wondering if anyone has installed a new Gentex mirror (one that auto dims and has garage door opener)? Anyone know if my es is pre-wired, or do I have to run power to somewhere on the fuse block. Thanks

I installed a Gentex mirror on my 2015 OS and it was not pre-wired for the mirror. I ran the positive constant and positive ignition wires to the fuse block under the steering wheel with fuse taps. I tapped the negative line off the dome light. The dome lights have a fade out feature and because of that, wiring the mirror to the dome light positive lines will not work as far as I can tell.

Works great, I just wish there was a manual dim setting for when a lifted truck is behind me but other then that, works as it's supposed to.
