Arrow Aftermarket Mirrors

I have a Dodge Ram SLT that came with the all black mirrors and no blinkers. I recently ordered a set of chrome mirrors with the blinkers. Does anyone know if my truck will have the stock harness for a direct connect to the new mirrors? Any help is appreciated. Thanks, guys.

Couple other people have swapped on the mirrors with signals. As I recall the harness is all there but you have to get the dealer to hook it up to starscan to enable the blinkers.

UPDATE: I installed the lights and they plugged right in. I called the dealership and they want to charge me $75 a piece for some wires that hook up to the lights. Are they trying to get one over on me. My stock ones had one harness and the ones with the blinkers had 2 but plugged into an empty spot in the "module".

Also does anyone know how long it takes for them to hook up to starscan and how much they charge?

The dealer here charges by the hour, to do the Star Scan, here it is 75.0 an hour, I am not sure but if you ask them they might charge you a half hour, most places have a minimum one hour.

I just got off the phone and they said it would take a couple of hours and it would cost $102 to hook up starscan regardless of whether the mirrors work or not.

Went to the dealership and they said they couldn't activate the blinkers. Ended up paying $72 for them to tell me it's not possible. I don't see how a oem part is not able to be activated.
