Why does the title of this thread say it's wired to the rear view mirror then?

Was at the dealership today and have an answer. About to post a how-to thread for the process. Tap the red with black stripe (pin 3) for the power and the brown (pin 10) for the ground.

I tried to put in the blend mount mirror tap today; actually was successful at first. Taking off mirror housing was pretty easy, taps went in well. tested before i put everything back together and worked perfectly. After putting back the housing cover turned on car and detector wasn't powering on. Took off cover again to find that one of the pin had come unseated - assume during putting on housing cover? any rate, pin broke as I took it out, thankfully it didn't break inside the wire harness. Figured I'll have to order a new tap so put everything back together.

I am installing a dash cam this weekend. There are videos on how to remove a-Piller cover ( one screw under 'airbag' badge ) and can then run wires more easily. I plan on running a micro usb wire also to power go-pro when I use that. Once the A-piller cover is off it will be easy.
I never saw a fuse box in the front of this car. Prior 5 series did have small fuse box in glove box, but from what I have found the only fuse box in the F90 is in the trunk. Switched off fuses time out after about 5 minutes. Just like the cigarette lighter output. The Mirror power wire that you mirror tap times out after about 5 minutes also. Mike

I had the drivers side down before to install radar detector in my M5 and my dad's M5. Is there a paper slip (like in the rear) in that fuse box showing which fuse does what??? This will save me some time for sure. Mike

Now studying it more closely. Too bad there is no place that I could find (that was not behind "sign up for an account") to decode the different symbols and meanings to determine constant vs switched. I am going to leave the car door open for 10 minutes and hopefully things will 'time out' and go dark, then problem for constant circuits. Mike

I've been in the fuse box under the glove box, is there a fuse box on the drivers side? seems like it would be easier to run wires to that side??
