MirrorTap wires for radar detector

Any X1 owners with a hardwired radar detector using a MirrorTap on similar hookup into the harness connector able to chime in on wires used?

From checking with my multi meter I believe it is Brown/Black for Ground and Green/White for +12v Ignition power.

Can anyone confirm? Thanks

I went the tap a fuse approach. Threw in a cig lighter socket by the fusebox and plugged in the original adapter into that, running the wire all the way to the mirror.

This was for a dash cam but it's the same idea

Green/white stripe above the mirror I believe is what I used.
