Re: Auto dim mirror wire
Black/pink goes to the black/pink reverse light wire. It is not at the GEM. You should be able to find it in the wire bundle that drops down from the dash to the left side of the transmission tunnel.

Re: Auto dim mirror wire
There is no red/black for the autolamps mirror but there is one for the overhead console display. That one should be connected to the light blue/red of the radio harness.

Re: Auto dim mirror wire
You also don't have too hook up the pink/black wire. All it does is turn the auto-dim feature of the mirror off when your are in reverse. I left mine unhooked.

That is true.
I tried it for several months without the reverse wire before I got around to hooking it up. I like it with the reverse wire connected because it makes it easier to see backing up into a bright light. I don't get into that situation very often but when it does happen, it is better with autodim disabled.
