1969 Toronado rearview mirror wth power wire?

I was just messing around in the Toronado and realized that there is a black wire coming out of the headliner and it goes into the rearview mirror. Anyone have any idea what it's for?

There should be a little slide lever on the bottom right of the mirror. It is for a light. If the slide is not there or not working it is a pretty easy fix.
Here is picture for reference.

That's pretty awesome! My lever is there, but I'll have to check it out tomorrow. Thanks for the info!

If you need, I restore these or can sell you a resilvered mirror or any parts for yours. Glad to help.
