I have the power mirrors and the interior switch but I don't know how to wire them. Do I need a harnes or can I just do it with wire and a fuse in line holder?

Followed this and worked like a charm. Yours is easier than mine. I had to figure out folding function on top of this. Some pics don't show up, but it's okay. All you need is a diagram.

I got 12v adaptor, connected switch and mirrors and figured out each line one by one before installation.

is it really that hard to adjust your mirrors manually?

Thanks for the info ill try the switch for the defog I got them off a 300zx. And no there not hard at all to adjust but it beats streching over to the pasenger side. And no foggy mirrors are way better.

Thanks I will try to do this asap. When I get back to my silvia. But on rainy days foggy days or with stupid neighbors its good having power features and heated mirrors. Just a thought.
