Well my nice mirror arrived today from A8Parts.

But it has 6 wires in the lead, including the 3 above:
Black with blue trace
Brown
Blue with red trace
Red
Yellow
Green

Any ideas anyone what Red/Yellow/Green are for?

And a very important point - how do you remove/remount it?
Looking at the end of the mounting arm it has some sort of clip, but no obvious release mechanism.

Not being able to see the "button" it mounts on I've no idea - is there a release button or fixing screw there or do you just pull or twist it off?
I certainly don't want to risk damaging the windscreen!

Edit: Found several comments online saying twist the stalk 90 degrees anticlockwise to unlock. Can anyone confirm before I risk cracking the screen?

Also, what's the best way to get into the sunroof control panel to get some power; it doesn't obviously come off simply so there's presumably more than clips holding it all up there.
