i am looking to find out what each of the wires are for on the mirror and where i can find the correct wires to connect them to. My old mirrors had 3 wires running into them....can i just connect the same colors to each other?

I bought a pair of DEDC 08+ mirrors off of amazon. I put them on my 03 Excursion. The wires were different colors on the off brand mirror. I was forced to troubleshoot which was which. I somhow got the mirrors to work correctly without having to dig into them and flip the wires on the servos. So I know its possible from the connector.
