heated mirrors and washers

[robsy]

I want to intall these but was unsure how they work?

I can get the actual mitrror glass with the elements and i have noticed that some wing mirrors have the wiring behind it in the mirror casing...but will it work if i just plug in the the new heated glass into the mirrors? Does it come on with the heated rear screen or does it have to work with a temp sensor like the one with the OBC? (which i am also yet to install)

Also is it the same for the heated washers?

Cheers

heated washers plug straight into your washer jet motor loom, or if you have intensive wash function I think there is a socket on the loom for it?

Mine didnt come with plugs on it so I spliced it in to washer motor input

ok - but how and when do they come on & what controls this??

Mirrors are on as soon as the car is startedm the 2 extra wires to the element come of the main 4 motor wires in the housing.

Cool - so all i need to do is put the heated glass in and it will work??

Do you have the extra 2 wires???
They can be made up with spades on either end.

no the mirror housing needs to be wired up to accept them.there are two wires that plug onto the glass yeh
