Hard Wiring into rear view mirror...

Just received my newest toy today. I am curious which wires in the standard 4 line telephone wire are the power and the ground for the unit? Logic would tell me that the power would be the red, and the ground would be the black, but I want to verify before I fry my new V1!

DOn't go by the colors: they'll be different depending on which end of the cord is plugged in. Looking into the jack in the V1, the third pin from the right is 12V, the third pin from the left is ground.

so if i am looking into the jack on the detector it would look like this:

|| disregard || 12v + || ground || disregard ||
