For a limited, they sure did limit some of my standard options. LOL!

Haha yeah, it certainly seems like a weird combination of options you have.

Your car reminds me of my ex's 2001 Grand Am. It was a base model with the 2.4L 4 cylinder, manual windows and locks, no map lights or kick panel lights..but it had the upgraded 6 speaker sound system.


My mirror does have the 2 wires that you're missing.. And I do have the auto dim and map lights. It seems like GM really f'ed around with options on their cars. lol

So did Subaru. My Legacy is a GT model with no sunroof cause it has to be a limited to get that, but a base model could get that option. One day I will sit down and figure out the Haynes wiring.

I'm thinking about picking up a Haynes manual in a couple days, so I can take a look into it for you too. I'll probably know that whole manual inside out in a week. haha

The haynes is not that great. It has multiple pics from other cars that look nothing like the century when it comes time to disassemble. That was my biggest issue.

Yeah, I was looking at them earlier. There isn't even one specific to the Century. One for the Regal/GP/1st gen w-bodies, and another for the Impala, lumina and monte carlo. I doubt either of those would be much of a help considering the Century is a mash up of the two.

Haynes 19010. 97-05 Century.

From the looks of it orange and grey are dome light nc and black is no for switching them on manually with the push buttons. Book shows 97-98 didn't have map as dome guess I will do something about that.

You might be able to wire it up like you want it. I'm not sure if you can do it with that mirror..you might have to get one out of a newer Century/Regal at a jy

The book doesn't identify the harness or the numbers. Once Ivey back home I can take a pic if the diagram and post it.
