A rearview mirror assembly includes a housing. A circuit board is positioned within the housing. A cantilevered contact is coupled with the circuit board. An electro-optic element is positioned proximate the circuit board. A first substantially transparent substrate defines a first surface and a second surface. A first edge extends around the first substrate. A second substantially transparent substrate defines a third surface and a fourth surface. A second edge extends around the second substrate and defines a notch having a notch edge set inboard from the second edge. An electrical bus extends proximate the first and second edges. A primary seal is disposed between the first and second substrates. The seal and the first and second substrates define a cavity therebetween. An electro-optic material is positioned within the cavity.
