does this mirror plug in, or does it need to be hardwired?

It has a curly electrical cord that's about 5ft long if stretched to the max.

The mirror comes with coiled cord and plug; it stretches about eight feet. If your outlet is not near the designated area for your mirror, you'll want to use guides to keep the cord out of your way.

This is a great mirror and yes you must plug it in to a wall outlet for the light to work. I recommend this for any bathroom.

I believe when I got it, it needed to be plugged in, but my contractor hardwired it.

Yes it has a plug, so you do not have to hard wire it. You have to cut the plug off to hard wire it, but if you are doing a hard wire, that should not be a problem!

This is a great mirror that plugs into the wall if you want the light to come on. Generally bathrooms have a plug for hair dryers, electric toothbrushes etc. I use that plug for the mirror and unplug it when I need to plug in something else. I love this mirror and can't put on make up without it. Sadly when I travel I have to have a little hand-held mirror and it's very difficult. I recommend this mirror highly!

It does not plug in. This unit needs to be installed (hardwired) by an licensed electrician.

No its meant to be hard wired, you will need to buy the proper fixture to plug into wall

Doesn't necessarily have to directly connect to the mirror. I have mine connected to my sun roof power. Mine is routed up the mirror back, but mine is powered since its auto dimming, etc. Look up mirror tap installation for your car. I found a forum with detailed photos of the install for my 04 Acura TL. Worked great and I've had zero issues since install over a year ago.

I'm not an expert on the issue, but it seems to me that if you have a powered rearview mirror, you're good to go. You just need access to the port behind the mirror where the power cords enter. If you don't have a powered mirror, or don't have access to where the cords enter the mirror, then go with something else. I don't think it's so much about the model of the car, as much as it is about the powered wires going to the mirror.

This mirror has no light, therefore no plug or hardwiring. There are other models that do have illumination.

Yes it must be hardwired, but only two wires must be connected. If I did it anyone can. Good luck

I'm not an electrician but I can say that the mirror has a three-pronged (grounded) cord that plugs into an outlet. If you can take a normal plug and hard wire it to a switch, then it will probably work for this mirror as well. Again, I'm not an electrician but I hope this helps with your question.

Yes ours is plugged into our bathroom vanity outlet. The cord dangles down from the mirror to the outlet.

The cord goes into the wall, not on the bottom of the base. So upon installation, it is seamless (the wiring goes behind the wall). You will not see a cord coming out from the base of the mirror plugging into an outlet. At least the one I bought is like that. Is that what you are asking?

The only wire to the mirror is the power cable. The link to the camera is wireless. A cable goes from the camera to a small transmitter for transmitting to the mirror.

The mirror has a wiring harness . Once you mount the mirror find the wires and push connectors together ! Piece of cake ! Took 2 minutes

Yes it is set up to wire exactly like that. I purchased this same mirror. Keep in mind this morrow requires a high quality camera not a $40 cheapie as I found out.

Yes. That is why there is wire in it. Once you connect the wiring then you can adjust the mirror in your power button.

No, it's hardwired. I bought one as a replacement for the aftermarket unit I had that quit working. It fit right into the bracket/power supply already installed in my car.

Yes it is hardwired. Yes you turn it off & on with the chain. I did change it to a plug in simply by attaching a cord I purchased at Home Depot.
