How to tell if drivers mirror is heated?

[skapegoat]

My 95 was missing the drivers side mirror when I got it. Called local yard to find a replacement and they needed to know if it was heated. Since mine is missing how do tell What mirror I need?

Dsms didn't come with heated mirrors.

This thread kinda got my hopes up. Thought it was a hidden feature I never knew of.

After I made the post I looked it up in rockauto and they list heated power mirror for $33, and non heated for $31.

Turbos do, I don't know how far down the model line they got. Most wiring for most accessories is already in the cars. There's no separate switch, they're tied-in with the rear window defogger.
If your mirror is already broken, or if you're brave enough, the glass comes out by putting a flat screwdriver under the bottom edge of the glass and prying up. If there's a grid wired-in, you have heated mirrors. I've noticed in our mild weather here, the mirror heaters must not pull much current- about two miles to clear up. I've driven other cars that do it before out of the parking lot.

I never payed no mind to see if my car had them though.

Yes, mirrors are over rated, race cars don't need them,.

My 92' 3000gt sl had heated mirrors. Havent seen them on a DSM though.

I had a 95 GSX with electric factory heated mirrors. There should be a wire connector if yours had that feature. Not all trim models came with that option.

The heated mirrors came on the European DSM's, but not (that I know of) on those made for the US market.

I haven't know any DSM with heaters, But I do see on the Service manual that it does show up, the Service manual that I have, I bought it from the dealer and it's from a 95 model, The service manual comes in 3 separate books.
