(took 12V from the night-lighting connector on the back of the radio in the end as it was easy to identify and access)
It works great - my pre-facelift A8 4,2 QS had auto dim rearview mirror, however, my pre-facelift S8 didn't. I ran my feed direct from terminal 15 (via the fue / relay panel in the passenger side).
