ok. if you're lucky, your pickup might be already wired for them. then you need the black window switch piece with the toggle to adjust them.

So your going from the "nemo" mirrors to the tow mirrors...

Should be plug and play.

If you got the lighted ones there a bit more involved, I installed them on my truck several years ago but its not hard.

But swap for swap, its easy.

I tried installing mirrors and can't figure out how to get to the electrical connector on the paddle mirror.
