Default Need Wire Info to Connect Onstar Mirror FMV

Need wiring diagram of ignition so I can connect the existing wires of a new Onstar FMV Mirror on my 95. Wife wants it for cell, safe and sound, and in case of a emergency.
Yellow = Battery
Red = Ignition
Black = Ground

Now I need the corresponding wires on the corvette to connect the mirror.

The 95 rear view mirror has two connectors.

C1 pin A Yellow wire from head light dimmer switch. Hot in Park or Head
used to illuminate the console.

C1 pin B Black wire Ground

C1 pin C Pink wire 12 volts from Power Mirror fuse #31. Hot in
Run Bulb Test or Start. Provides 12 volts to the Map/Courtesy light
bulbs. Bulbs light when the Map/Courtesy lamp switch is in the Map position.

C2 pin A Orange wire 12 volts from RH CTSY Fuse #36. Hot all the time.
Provides power to one side of the Map/Courtesy bulbs. Bulbs will light
when the Map/Courtesy switch is in the Courtesy lamp position and
operates like the other interior courtesy lamp bulbs.

C2 pin B White wire connects to the Courtesy lamp relay and headlight
switch and is the ground path for the Map/Courtesy lamp bulbs when
the switch is in the Courtesy position.

Thanks for the reply
So I connect the yellow wire of the onstar mirror to the orange (always hot)?
The red wire of the onstar mirror to the the pink (switched)?
The black wire of the onstar mirror to ground?

Disconnect the negative battery cable before you do any rewiring.
