2026 Tucson Hybrid SEL Convenience – mirror tap wire identification for radar detector

2026 Tucson Hybrid SEL Convenience – mirror tap wire identification for radar detector

Trying to hardwire my Uniden R8 radar detector via mirror tap on my 2026 Tucson Hybrid SEL Convenience. Car is in READY mode and I have 5 wires at the mirror connector: green, red, blue, grey, brown. Included a pic of the connector.

Been probing with a multimeter (DCV 20 setting) and none of the wires are reading 12V. Getting low floating voltages across all combinations (2V range max).

Anyone know which two wires are switched 12V and ground on the 2026? Or did anyone successfully mirror tap their Tucson for a radar detector/dashcam? What wires did you use?

Been shopping for a 2026 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid SEL Convenience in Washington state for the past few days. Contacted 4 dealerships — one tapped out saying the deal was already too good to beat, one couldn't beat it, and one just gave me attitude without ever sending a number. Ended up working with the fourth dealer who actually put in the effort.

Here's the breakdown they sent in writing:

  • MSRP: $37,255
  • Dealer discount: -$4,000
  • Price after discount: $33,255
  • Tax (11.1%): $3,674.68
  • Doc fee: $200
  • License & registration: $870
  • Total OTD: $38,000

Financing the full amount at 0.99% APR for 60 months, no down payment. Monthly payment comes out to ~$648/month with only ~$880 in total interest over the life of the loan.

There's a current inventory shortage on this trim in my state — the dealer is sourcing one for me. Deal is locked in at this price regardless of color.

Is this a solid deal? Should I move forward or is there room to negotiate further? Appreciate any input from people who know the market on these.
