Simple enough installation, except the wire shown in dhouse's DIY is a different color on the 06 SI. Mine was a green wire with a silver stripe. It is in the same location as the one shown in dhouse's picture above. Looking at the non clip side of the green connector, it is the 4th wire from the right.

dhouse, I hope you don't mind that I used your picture.
Hope this helps.
Did my Gentex mirror with Homelink after work today. As stated above, my '07was also the green/stripe wire as Mellow stated. With the information from dhause and Mellow, I ripped through the install in about 40 minutes.
If anyone wants to do this, order the shorter wire cover. I had to Dremmel off about a 1/2" from the long one.
All in all, it was a piece of cake. REAL happy that I can toss that clunky gararge door opener in the trash.

Thanks for the info...
Bill.
