You should be looking for a Brown wire. Here is the wiring diagram.
Hope this helps

Has anyone used "Radar Mount" Brand Mirror Tap wire? Just wondering if it fits as is or the end need to be trimmed/shaved.

This site will help you with the hardwire, they give you different pin sizes for you. I just order mine today. Will let you know about the product when I install mine to the mirror.

You're Welcome.

I personally don't like to splice or tap into factory harnesses. I would suggest running a separate power and ground wire from mirror and tuck it into the headliner, then go down the A pillar to the underside of dash and use a micro fuse tap in an unused empty fuse location. I installed many dash cams this way and it is the best method.
