Unless your truck had heated mirrors installed at the factory, you won't have the wiring for the heat installed. You will have to run wires yourself and decide how you want to power them.
Some owners leave the heat on all the time the key is on. Others use a switch (supplied by key-on power) so they can control them manually. I chose to add a timer relay set up so I can run them for 5 minutes at a time, or turn them on and leave them on until I either turn them off or shut off the key.
You have lots of choices about where to get the power and control it.
