Auto dimming mirror wiring?

I'm looking to put the auto dimming rear view mirror from a TL/CL into my Accord, but I'm not sure how many and which wires run to it. I've seen one picture of an MDX mirror (supposed to be the same) that had what looks like 3 wires. The only combination I could think of was IGN, BAT, GND. This particular mirror did not have the OnStar button...it was just the "Auto" button.

Can anyone confirm which wire is which? I'll have to splice into some existing wires on my Accord, but if it's just those 3 like I suspect then it shouldn't be too difficult.

Thanks in advance!
Jeff

Looks like Ground mirror side black, Ign (mirror side white), and one that comes from a reverse relay(maybe not to dim when in reverse??)mirror side gray

Thanks, fsttyms1! That's exactly what I needed to know. I have the service manual for my Accord, so that'll tell me how to physically replace the mirrors.
