Retrofit Heated Mirrors

[Si_chRis]

You got a point there about the extra load. Wouldn't want the fuse keep blowing. Anyways what timer module did you purchase from Amazon and how did you hooked it up. Did the connect it to the fusebox under the driver's side. At what amp fuse?

It was another member that bought the Amazon timer, not me.

But, I would imagine you would use fuse taps and find something that is hot when the ignition is on. I would probably use a 5 amp fuse. I have my dash cam and shock sensor both running on 5 amp fuses with no issues.

I thought someone determined the mirror heaters were 12watts each. . . . if you can confirm this, you can use a 2.5amp fuse but a 5 should be good too just a little more tolerant.

Can you share the link from Amazon on the timer module you purchased? Some people tapped the heater mirror wires to the rear defroster. Is that a bad idea or why you didn't go that route? Where did you get your mirror with heater and signal? Got a link for that as well?

Didn't you have the Suma ones installed? If so how is that compared to the Euro version? Does the Euro verson have the blue glass , heated, and led turn signal on the mirror? Is the Euro mirror the same ones from the link (Aliexpress) that another person has posted above?

Yes, I have them installed.

Euro has blind spot, outside turn signal, power folding. I removed the mirror to figure out where the wires go. The only thing I have to test is the blind spot Led, but it's not important to me.

crazy cheap

They may be cheaper elsewhere, but I didn't really dig. From what I see they should fit the earlier models as well. Is it really as easy as wiring them in parallel with the rear defrost?
