power mirrors

How hard is it to convert a truck over to power mirrors? Is it just a matter of running wire & buying mirrors & a switch? Thanks.

That and making sure the new mirrors mount in the same holes or cover them up when you drill new ones. Cutting the hole in your door panel and mounting the switch.
Depending on the year of your truck you might find a switch and mount in a boneyard. LMC Truck, Blue Oval Parts are places you can get most of what you need. Really shouldn't be too hard.....just take a little time getting things done right I'd think.

Good Luck

Thanks, 92F150Flare. I was planning on buying the switch & coverplate from LMC & then following the wiring diagram in my haynes manual to get the job done but was trying to see if any had done it before.
