I bought this mirror on:
www.aliexpress...
(ANSHILONG Car Rear View Rearview Interior Auto Dimming Mirror with Temperature Compass and Special Bracket).
The bracket number you have to request at time of purchase is number 57. You would not need any extensions with this Limb/bracket.
For the MG ZS EV you can use the cable provided along with to either connect to a 12v socket below (or) use the next cable provided to tap into the fuse box under the glove compartment.
The mirror comes with 2 different cables/ways to power it.
I used the Fuse Tap to derive power from the fuse that regulates the front 12v socket.
The fuse diagram is provided on the manual and also online. The fuse that i tapped into is number F15 which regulates/concerns the 12v socket near the wireless charger in the front.
I am providing a link also of the Fuse Tap that i implemented/used from Amazon. You will only need one of this.
www.amazon.com...
(10 Pack - EPAuto 12V Car Add-a-circuit Fuse TAP Adapter Mini ATM APM Blade Fuse Holder).
If you are using the Fuse tap, once the ACC is powered into F15 fuse, the ground can be derived from any bolt that should be available above the Fuse box.
The fuse box of the MG ZS EV is facing downward and need to remove 2 screws & 2 clips in the left foot well-for Right Hand Drive- to remove the protecting door and access the fuse box. You will need a torch to shine on the fuse box to identify F15 fuse which should be blue in colour and 15amps.
If you want to power the AutoDim mirror from the 5V USB socket on the windshield, you can use the "step up to 12v adapter cable with display" that need to be purchased separately.The link for that would be:
www.amazon.com...
(USB to 9v, 5v to 12v Step Up, DROK USB Cable DC 5V Boost to 9V 12V Voltage Converter 1A Step-up Volt Transformer Power Regulator Line with LED Display).
If it is that you want to use the Bracket/Limb from your Original mirror, then you need to buy separate adapters.I would not recommend this, since the bracket/limb number 57 suits perfectly well for the MG ZS EV.
I believe this video is also suitable/similar for MG Astor & the older version of MG ZS EV.
The temperature sensor can be installed on the vent behind the number plate and the wire can be brought inside the passenger cabin, from behind the glove box.
This electronic Auto Dim Rear View Mirror has feature for temperature, altitude, compass/direction & time.I recommend this product.
The install is simple and takes around 2 hours to complete. The biggest task would be to route the wiring from the Front engine bay, towards & into the drivers cabin.
Hope this video helps someone.
