Default Replacement Mirrors Converting from 2006 to 2008.....will it work ???

I have a 2006 150 KR and I have power mirrors that electrically fold, are heated, have puddle lamps, and led signal on mirror. The car wash place bought me new mirrors but they gave me 2008s which look different. Will they retrofit easily ??? Im taking them to a stereo place in the morning....they said they can install them but will everything hook up to them and work correctly ?? Any help you can give me will be appreciated.

Thanks,

OtisDaWhino :-)

They should bolt right in. Make sure that the right ones were ordered, otherwise you may not have the powerfold.

You already have the extra button installed? If so, you should be able to install the mirrors and have everything work. My 07 only came with power adjust, so my Tow mirrors only have power adjust. I haven't wired the turn signals or heat up yet.

Here's the writeup for wiring turn signals

You should take them back to the carwash and say you want the exact same mirrors that came off your truck.

I agree, take them back and make them get you the same ones or the 2010-11 version.
As far as the heated mirros, my switch is on the EATC with the rear defrost button. I didn't even know I had them and when I changed to the 2010 mirrors the instruction showed how to wire them for heated mirrors so I looked in the owners manual and it said that's where the switch is. After installing the mirrors I tried it and sure enough the heated mirror function does work as it is suppose to using the rear defrost switch.
