I believe you have to move some of the pins to get everything to work. Do a search, it has been detailed on what has to be done.

Yeah probably all it will probably be just as easy to wire directly from the turnsignals in the headlight

It will probably be easier to just swap pins rather than running lines from the turn signals. It is already there, just has to be moved to the proper slot.

put a test ligt in the pins in your miror harnaess with your left signal on. should be easy enough to find the answer.

That looks good, so the turn signal is in front part of the mirror assebly, opposite of the older version just below the mirror glass?

Well guys and gals i finally got the turn signals to work without swapping pins around or even running wires from the turn signal to make them work what i did was actually get the 04-05 mirror wire harnesses from a wrecked truck and took the 09-10 mirrors apart and swapped the harnesses out and they WORK!!!!!

Just logged in, all you had to do was add a ground wire for the directionals to work. Have the 09 mirrors on my truck. I wish I could get the heated mirrors to work .

Where?

Can anyone tell me where to buy a set of these? I would like the turn signal and would definitely try to wire up the heated to work off a toggle switch or something. Erie, PA weather just showed me once again how bad it sucks not having heated mirrors lol.
