mirror plugs

i will be switching the factory power paddle mirrors on my 05 SD with power heated tow mirrors with the turn signals. i am pretty sure that my stock mirrors have the round plugs and the new mirrors have rectangular plugs. what do i need to do to get these to work?

FX4 with you having a 05 the heated towing mirrors should just plug in. I just did the same thing to my 04 and I had the flat plug that matched up with the plug from the 05 towing mirrors that I installed. Hope this helps you

i cant find what i did with it right now i will keep looking for it but it would probly be faster if you just have one of the sponsors look it up for you. FTE/PARTS-GUY should be able to give you a part number and a pretty decent price
