Default Tow mirror install

I am looking into installing the folding tow mirrors on my Ram. The mirrors on my truck are heated. Is the install complicated ?
Thanks

Pull back the door panel near the mirror and it is 3 bolts and a plug! 15 Minute job! I just changed out mine a couple months ago!

Where did you wind up getting the folding trailer mirrors from? I found some on Ebay for about $270.00 but I can't remember if they were heated or not.

I have not gotten them yet, but I did find them at mopar2u.com for 289.00, and these are heated.

Yep, easy project. Screws located in the sail panel, and behind the door handle. Two more in the bottom of the panel. Use caution when taking the old mirrors out. The connector doesn't like to come out and is a trifle easy to damage. Three nuts on the inside of the door holding the studs on the mirror assembly.
