Focus mk3 auto dimming mirror

I have started to fit an auto dimming mirror to my Zetec S.  I have the front screen that has the black blank on so it looks like it has autonlights and wipers.  The mirror is a direct swap and the original trim fits back on. So that side of things is spot on. In my headlining i appear to have an extra square plug with two wires on but nothing for the mirror.  The drivers a post connection has many pins in the headlining side plug but the car side does not (no surprise there) 

What wires are people using to connect the mirror to and does anyone have an idea what the square plug is for?

    I have found out what the connection is.  It is for passenger airbag notification for when it is turned off.
