You can use any third gen flip out tow mirror on your 2001, however if you get power heated you will need the heat switch which is located on the A/C panel. If you are lucky you have the wiring for the power and heat pre installed by the factory, just need the control switch to move em and a heat switch or wire up your own.

If manuals will work for you, any 1999-2002 tow mirrors will work. Just get the mounting plates or they will shake and weeken the door frame.

I got my mirrors from HERE. I bought them last year $150 to my door. Mine were the Kool vue's and came with the brackets. Hope this helps.

Sorry bout that...price went up. I paid $70 a piece for mine and they were power/heated. When I was searching I put Kool vue into google and took a look at the results and went with the cheapest I could fine. Good luck.
