Yeah, that's what I figured, which means he'll need to run a cable down the a-pillar anyway, or cut the existing wires at the display panel and at the base of the a-pillar to use those. And be ready for whatever issues that may raise.
Assuming you aren't using the remote display, you really only need the +12V and the ground. You'll have to ground it somewhere else, as there is no harness ground up there. You could probably just ground it to the windshield frame, but I don't know that I'd be drilling holes up there, myself. Anyway, tap into the green/white wire for +12V, ground it, and you're done.
EDIT: Assuming the V1 has US-standard wiring, red should be +12V and black should be ground, but, again, check the manual!John in MD - 1991 318is
