Hey guys I was just wondering if anyone has tried this or knows what to do I have an 01 with power windows and locks but not mirrors I have manual tow mirrors that were added by the previous owner I'm wanting to know is the door prewired for electric mirrors? Or is this just a bigger hassle than it's worth??

 

you may try popping off that cover in the corner of the door. Most likely if it had regular mirrors before the tow mirrors, with the other power options. I'd be willing to bet it had power mirrors before. Both my trucks that had p/w and locks had the power mirrors as well.
OR if you don't wanna take that off, You can take the vin number to the dealer, they can look it up see what options it had.

 

You we're right Barryb there were two plus sitting there just waiting to be plugged into

 

good deal

 

i have power mirrors and i love them they move both the mirrors and boom in and out with just a simple button i put in the door just front of the arm rest area. i don't remember the brand sorry.

 

Are they a different style or are they like the chevy mirrors that telescope out??

 

You should be able to get the factory replacement tow mirrors that are power/heated. They cost a pretty good sum more though. I've got a set of non power tow mirrors. I hate them because if your by yourself and need a mirror adjustment. Well you know what I mean.. I'm going to order these. 2001 Dodge Ram 2500 Truck Power Heated Towing Black Mirror Pair at 1AAuto.com

 

Ebay has the set for cheap cheap

 

If you need help or have any questions you can shoot me a PM too, and I'll help you out.

What you can do too is , call the dealer with your VIN # and ask them what features your mirrors came with from the factory.

I could then match a set of tows up for you if you wanted to see what we had.

I was looking into those too Barryb mainly for the same reason as you said I hate trying to adjust the manual ones and my fiancé broke my passenger one pushing on it one day when it was in the negatives here so now I have screws holding the glass in place otherwise the mirror flops down and looks at the ground I looked into the ones with blinkers in them too but they don't fold to a full 90 degrees so I think that would drive me crazy

Also Tony I popped both corners and found out the doors are wired for mirrors I just need the adjuster switch and the heater button hvac controller

Oh and of course the mirrors them selves
