It doesn't take long to install? How do you guys plug the power cable? No splicing?

I used the invisicord to hardwire my V1. It looks really clean and was quite easy to install.

I did mine today with my bel vector. It had a barrel power cord and I emailed invisacord and they walked me through how to wire it... it was easy... cut and solder and heat shrink and plug in... no more wires hangin... W00T!

VERY nice! 23mm eh? You just spliced in the stock V1 cords? This mount looks very clean.

V1 ftw.

No, I used a Stealthcord. Do a search for it and you will find several helpful threads.

I bet this looks cleaner than most installs. It's something I considered, but chickened out.

I have just installed the stealthcord. Not sure what colors the inviscord uses. Let's say one black and the other red. Now, on the back of the mirror you will se the harness with three wires. One is brown, one is black, and the other is green.

Now, IF the invisicord is red and black, red being power (12V) and black being ground. Install the red probe in the brown slot just under the wire and the plastic harness. Should be pressed to hard. But will be secure. Then insert the black into the black as same as above. You also take the harness clip out of the mirror for better access. Again, I'm not sure how the product you have is set up.
