Hi,
I've had another look again today, but to no success.
The only cable I suspect could be right, goes straight up and disappears into the dashboard. Gave it a gentle pull, but it's either stuck or not the one. 
And someone else has definitely messed around here before me.  Rolling Eyes

Kia ora goguandrei

Hopefully these photos help you. Mine is Right hand drive, so mirror opposite to you.

Footwell wires are black and purple, then wrapped in black cloth tape.

Second photo is with glovebox hanging down. The wires come from the large bundle of wires, mostly yellow, green colour, with a couple of red and black coloured ones.

Cheers Blake

Thanks for the info Blake.
Once i knew where to look, it was so easy.
The cable was tucked out of sight behind the bundle and pulled all the way up the a pillar. 

Cheers

If you want to go extra posh, if you look under the side mirrors you’ll see the indents for the mirror puddle lights. LED sets are easily sourced from eBay, sharp knife or dremmel opens the hole up, then ran the wires down and tied them in from the door lights, work a treat, super bright and especially good at night as they come on as you unlock the car from the remote.

Or if you have a gap iid to change the ccf (puddle lights fitted)
Connect to the purple/white wire?

I would like to instal the mirror puddle lights. Is the wiring already in the mirror, behind the small speaker or behind the door card? I have a GAP IID so can activate the CCF.

I have powerfold mirrors and memory seats but no puddle lights.


Thanks

On mine the wire was on the door loom connector, behind the speaker. But no connector pin to take it into the mirror
