#1: Non Electric to Electric Mirrors Author: Mephisto, Location: ScotlandPosted: Fri Jun 22, 2012 11:23 am ---- Hi,
I know its be covered before but i am having problems..
I have looked under my original window switch and it appears that i have the connection for electric mirrors, I took my old mirrors of and they had a brown plug, with 4 wires i think, the new electrics have a white plug with 9 wires or so.
I bought a whole door wiring harness, but when i got it home i noticed that the connection is different.
MIne has what looks like just a square plug, as opposed to this
Any body got any ideas of how i can splice this..
to my original door harness, or am i onto plums??
This is the original plug...
Cheers if anyone can help

plan a)Cut both connectors off and hardwire
plan b) buy some new mirrors
