03 Mirrors

I have a 99 F250 and want to put some 03 tow mirrors and was wondering if the heat is always on or if there is a button and also i have manual windows, and lock. Will a 03 power window, power lock door panel will fit on my truck and what else would i have to buy.

I think the heat for the mirrors is on a timer they come on when the truck is started and stay on for a couple minutes. As far as power locks and windows That would be some work you would have to install the lock actuators and probably all the wiring. same with all the window motors and wiring. I also think you would need your GEM reprogramed to work with the locks.

Theyre always on. There's a write up on here somewhere about putting them on a switch though.
