The only thing I can think of is this;

http://www.camrymanuals.com/manuals/07/Mirror.pdf

page 14 or so. I can't find the other site I saw recently, I deleted my history last night. Hope this helps.

I installed a mirror in my wife's gen6. The mirror had 5 wires but only two were used. I think one was switched power and the other was ground. I didnt have any instructions either, I just did it on my own. This might sound stupid but I used some telephone cord I had laying around for my wiring. Its perfect cuz its flat and has the 2 wires you need. I just ran the cord across the headliner to the pillar and down to the fuse panel. Heres a link to my installed pics. Hybrid rear view mirror

I have 20% tint and flip the mirror for night mode...no more glare.

I always thought the cars were pre-wired for the mirror - I guess not.
