2013 Powered/Heated Mirrors
Hey Everyone,
Quick question about 2013 powered/heated mirrors. I bought a Jeep new/used. Guy before me used relocation brackets and that is how the Jeep came. I want to mount the mirrors back on the doors and am going to purchase a second set of powered/heated mirrors MOPAR. My question is about the wiring. The guy before me taped the wires to the doors underneath the relocation bracket. I have posted a pic as to what the wire looks like. Does this wire attach directly to the mirror assembly or is there a harness in between the mirror and this wire, or does the wire coming from the OEM mirrors connect here? Follow me? I ordered a pair of non-OEM mirrors from ebay that said they would be a direct fit - they weren't as far as wiring goes. So I am hoping someone out there has gone through the whole powered/heated mirrors experiment and can shed some light for me before I order again. Thanks guys!

you know, I was thinking about putting in the original post:
no comments about how power mirrors suck
please don't question my motives or decisions -
i like powered mirrors and yes that doesn't make me a non-Jeep guy as I have owned four Jeeps back to YJ
I don't want to keep the mirrors on relocation brackets all winter long so don't ask
I don't want ideas for "better" relocation brackets
I read all the other posts about mirrors and it seems mirrors and options are real touchy for guys who don't have/don't like these options. I happen to like them and would love to have more options. While I'm at it, I also like the Special Edition Star Wars Trilogy over the 1977 versions, though Han did shoot first. I prefer Vox amplifiers over Marshall. I prefer 6 foot glass over 12 foot monster swells. And I prefer a time trial bike over a road bike. Just making sure I piss everyone off.
So, does anyone have any helpful ideas about the wiring for my soccer mom, mall crawling, Sahara heated/powered mirrors? Specifically, I am hoping to find out how it came "stock" which is why I posted in the "stock" forum.
IN all seriousness I am just kidding but would really like some help. Thanks everyone.
