It's as easy as it looks. Takes about 2 minutes once you figure out what two wires you are looking for...

and for those do-it-yourselfers: Radio Shack sells a phone cord about 8 inches long that has u-shaped spade connectors on one end and a plug-in jack on the other. Just snip off the yellow and black leads, and cut off one side of the 'u' on each spade connector, you're ready to rock. Will plug right into the mirror. The cord is about $5.00.
