Well, I really should be getting my beauty sleep right now, but...

How about...
www.carmirror.com
e-bay
Google
www.theserviceadvisor.com

And now, the price you must pay for all my hard work is that you must visit this web site. You'll cry... maybe from sadness, maybe from laughing your ass off... but you WILL cry. LOL

Thanks Roadrash. I tried ebay but all they have are those after markets with the goofy lights and it doesnt say if they are power. I have one more question......Some mirrors are heated, but if I dont have heated will it matter? All it would be is a wire but I just want to make sure.

Well, I don't know the actual answer to that, but... if you're in FL... aren't heated mirrors pretty much a non-issue? ;-)

Well not really because it does get fogged up, so the heat probably helps reduce that. I dont care about the heat but all the mirrors say heated I just dont want that to be and issue with a car that isnt set up for heated mirrors

The highest percentage of TI's have heated mirrors. In my mahual it looks like
all 95's with active and up packages did anyway...

I think if your mirrirs are electrically adjustable they are likely heated.

YMMV

I'm guessing for the price they aren't electric/heated. That wasn't important to me seeing as how I never really need to adjust the mirrors. No one else drives my car. If you are looking for those options look to spend a bit more.
