2002-2007 tow mirrors

Could someone tell me what plug is on the end of your mirrors for 2002-2007 with heat, power, and signal? How many wires too.

Im looking at a set of these mirrors to replace my paddle mirrors. I have a 2001 and want to make sure i can make them work. I have power, heat and signal on mine.

THANKS!!!

You have 3 wires that control your mirror,and 2 wires that control the signals, 1 for the heat,and 1 for a ground. I can post up later when I get home of how to install them. It tells what color goes where...You will have 7 wires coming from the mirror....

Thanks for the info. I am going to take and look to see what wires i have. I have power, heat, and turns, but my passanger side dont have turn....not sure if the mirror was replaced without it before i got or not. Im assuming that it should have the turn on the passanger side.

New Mirror installation

Here ya go. I will tell you this, its a pain to get the wires through the door rubber thingy on the drivers side. I put 4 long wires together and used a metal clothes hanger that I had straighten and taped the wires to it.Then ran it through. That was the easiest way I found to do it. When I connected the turn signal wires,I connected to the wires in the column. I grounded to the closest places I could,and the heat just ran to a key on hot. The parking lights I used the one in the headlight switch. That way you don't have to run wires out under the hood....

Nice write up! All I should have to do is connect the parking lights. I just ordered them. Are yours ford or aftermarket mirrors?

The driver side is Ford,and the passenger side is aftermarket. The aftermarket fits a lot better than the factory. The only difference in the two are, 2 of the wires are different colors,other than that, I couldn't tell the difference between them.
