Hi gang, I installed the Redtek auto window module easy enough and it works, but this power mirror fold module from Redtek is kicking my arse! I popped the vent panel off and installed the one plug " T " in easy enough, its idiot proof! I cannot figure out where the extra plug in's go into any oem empty ports. Instruction & photos are not great, a video would be great. Is this modules harness universal and end up having plugs not used? Unless the plug ins are hidden in the truck in the kick plate area i am stumped.

Ok, too much time in the sun, im a moron. Move along, nothing to see here. ?

Here's a pic of what I have clearly they want the red, white and green wires spliced in, it's the other 2 male plugs that I can't figure out.

Any progress?
Yes @Danager was kind enough to send me pics of his completed wiring and it's all finished and buttoned up! The Aussie trucks have some different shaped & colored harness plugs and a bit different spot in the kick panel (plus on opposite side) once identified I located the wires easily and tapped in where needed.

My brain was mush and my control box got covered up so I didn't see where the plugs went in. As far as the loose wires for the tap in spots, the instructions had some hazy spots but figured out that the green wire can be left alone and not hooked up if you want the mirrors to fold with the ignition and door lock, and if you want them to fold with the fob unlock /lock then you also hook up the green wire. Since I didn't use it I just wrapped it with electrical tape then taped it to the oem harness nearest to it. The extra plugin behind the vent, I wrapped a small piece of soft foam pipe wrap around it so it won't rattle if it moves.

Congrats, and good on @Danager for helping out!

I'm not sure that I'm understanding completely, but I'm sure it will make more sense once I open everything up and get started. :thumbsup:

Hit me up if you have questions. If you want the mirrors to fold using the ignition switch just leave the green wire alone (don't hook up to anything) if you want the mirrors to open /close with the lock / unlock on the remote then the green wire gets hooked up. Send Redtek an email at their contact us link, they replied the next day during the week for me.
