What power mirrors

Cheap mirrors on my 2005 EB but now I have a tight squeeze next to a post.

Recommendations? Wiring and switch diagram?

I got my ‘08 style tow mirrors from 1AAuto.com several years ago, they have heat, power adjust, running and turn lights but are not power extend and fold. But they do offer them with those power functions now. Mine have been perfect with no issues at all.

As for the wiring, check out the TECH FOLDER at the top of the EX forum page, there is a thread there that deal with the power extend and fold wiring. Many other really great threads there too!

I also have the mirrors from 1A auto (08 style) they are power fold and are a tremendous up grade from the stock mirrors. They are plug and play for all options except the running lights and the power fold. Simple install, all is included to power the power fold,switch,wire, fuse and to power the running lights just run an additional wire from the headlight switch to the new mirrors on both sides. You won’t be sorry!!!! Good luck.

I have the same mirrors w/ power fold. Even upgraded the bulbs to led. I don’t know how I ever managed with the small paddles or power fold. They provide so much view it’s like having eyes behind my head.
