Because of completely crashed left, and broken joint with DIY flat mirror glas right mirror i need to change them both.

Today i found both heated electrical rover 400 mirrors for excelent price, so i am thinking to mount them. Honda mirrors are expencive and very hard to find, and they dont have heating. On the other side, these Rover ones are allso silver metalic, heated, and easy to find again if i broke them again.

WIll baseplate fit (i do not see any reason why not), will connector fit, and how to wire heating?

Honda also has heated mirrors on M:s and If I remember correctly there is own fuse in fuse box for heated mirrors, there might even be wire to the door for that. But okay, in MB3 Honda original mirror heating is style "always on" and i think it's stupid, if you look at Haynes' book wiring diagram, the mirrors get their heating power right after ignition switch.

In Aerodeck schematics it is wired from rear window heater button, which makes lot more sense and i think it's much more common to do thay way if no separate button for heated mirrors like in some JDM Hondas.

If connector doesn't fit, look if the connections itself fits and change the plastic bits with really small screwdriver.

Baseplate does fit perfectly, but connectors doesnt. Rovers have 2 more links because of heater wireing, so i would need to do connector swap. And i will put the command on rear window heater, without any increases in fuse resistant, because heaters themself are very low consumers.
