It is under the hood, just to the right of the passenger headlight. You'll see a wire clipped onto the radiator support. Theres just a tube plugged into it. thats what you swap out

The part number is BL3Z-19880-BA.
My truck is a 2012 STX. I added the heated/signal mirrors.
The TASCA part can be had 2011-2012 Climate Control with heated mirrors
It's worth calling to verify with TASCA that it's the right part although they'll likely be a little confused helping you. There was a suggestion that each factory has different parts compatibility. (Scratching head... wondering how the engineers figured that one out...)

or...do you just make sure you find a single zone with the mirror defrost?

Unfortunately not. There's a lot more involved than just swapping the climate control unit.
