How did you get the alert that your mirror housing had an electrical issue? Did it send a smoke signal? Sorry but I had to, but on a serious note that seriously would have sucked. Glad your car was ok and it wasn't anything serious. Did the Connected app send an alert or something?

Kudos to the OP, the install looks really good!

I had just pulled into the Airport Parking Garage, and was still in car when smoke started coming out of it.
