Google or eBay search for kool-vue (that spelling). They make a beautiful set. Take a look at my pics on here to see what they look like. Power and heated.

The factory ones from a new truck will work, you just need a diagram to figure out what wires to hook up

the koolvue mirrors are what you want if your truck has already has the power and heat installed. mopar never made mirrors with power and heat for the 2nd gen dodges. the heads off 3rd gen dodges can be adapted to 2nd gen bases but you would have to figure out the wiring. koolvues are supposed to be plug and play with no mods needed to install. hope this helps!

You have to order the backing plates from Dodge as well for the swing out tow mirrors.. do a search on them for the part no.
