upgrading mirror question

My 06 250 SD xlt has the basic power fold away mirrors. I am gettting the bigger towing ones that ford makes since just got a camper and really need to have a mirror that extends to i can see whats going on.


Now im assuming they will just bolt on with the original holes from the old ones

How about the wiring? FRom what ive seen they have the fully plastic ones, then ones with marker lights, and ones with heat? will it be a direct connect to the existing harness? with the leads for marker and turn signal be there even though my truck doesnt have it now? and heat would be excellent since im in new england but I can deal without, but i dont want to have to re-wire my hole truck. im just looking for what options if any are pre wired even though my mirrors are the bottom of the barrel

yes they will bolt on.The plugs will probably be the same, but I doubt it will be wired for heat/turn and parking lights. Mito corp has a pdf instructions for where to pick up the turn signal wires, the install is for their mirrors, but the wiring is the same for either.
