    Tried to remove my drivers side sunvisor...... three screws to remove, but what about the wiring? No plug or connector? I was able to reach my fingers in above the headliner a bit, but felt nothing but wiring. Is there a plug or connector? Had to put said visor back on, which was saddening. LOL

    There is a plug for it, about 3-4" back. I just installed these from a 97 into my 00 GT. The factory wiring harness is taped to the underside of the headliner back behind where the windshield curve stops and the roof flattens out so you may have to drop the front of the headliner to find it if you can't fish it out. Might have to remove the overhead console and A-pillar trim to get it to drop enough.

    Good luck on finding it. I had the entire interior gutted for upgrades (including the headliner) so it was easy once I figured out the entire harness was all factory taped to the top of the headliner. I hope to never to do that again, lol. The connector is 2 wires, IIRC a blue with black stripe and a grey. When I installed my visors I already had the headliner in place so I just crammed the connections into the roof so the visor assembly wouldn't cut into the wiring. They both work so I guess I'm good.

    Thanks FordMan, I knew it had to be up there somewhere.

    For future reference, and anybody else to shy to ask.

    I was able to pull the left front corner of the headliner down, just enough to get at the plug I (it was glued to the backside of the headliner.....
