Getting power source from the rain sensor / light sensor?

Hi,

I'm trying to connect a mirror tab (
Amazon Amazon
) near by the rear view mirror.

I popped out the cover of the sensors behind the mirror, but I don't know which one is the right power source to make the cable connection because there are several cables and connectors.

Could any one let me know which one is right to share the AC?

Mine is 2010 E350 2D Coupe.

Thanks!

Did you ever figure this out? I'd like to find power in that area for a dashcam, I've got the rain/light sensor, another flat device in front of that, and obviously all the light and sunroof switches above that, but the rain sensor and other device are really easy to get to...

2012 E350 Wagon, FWIW.

Thanks!
