That's a nice switch--should blend right in. Where you gonna put it?

Not to sure it it will fit, if not will put it where the chubby hole is at next to radio, I'll just have to find the dead plates from the junkyard and replace it.

Yes, completely forgot about the pre 02. Would it matter if his is a late 02? Meaning he might have the new for 03 electrical setup. That switch goes where the 4wd buttons would go, correct?

Yyyyup.... which is why I abandoned the idea. Ours isn't 4wd, but it has an eletronic traction control button in the spot where the 4x4 controls would go. Not giving up ETC when we're moving to a place where it snows and is prone to icy roads.

This is what I'm going to use.
2 wires go to both of the fold motors (in/out)
1 power
2 grounds
Already tested it with the front window switch, but to bulky to mount. So I'll be using the rear window switch which is flat and will sit flush.

i just ordered the mirror cavity's to reuse the stock connector. will be a plug and play after i pin the wires in the new cavity.

i really don't want to cut the harness off the mirror just in case i ever go back.

CONNECTOR https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/829-12047767

i only ordered the 2 cavity's and 4 locks's. I will try to use the wire connectors from the new mirror and pin in to the cavity so i can just plug into the mirror harness. i will also be making a separate pigtail connector for the turn signal and power fold option, so if i need to remove the mirror just unplug two mirror connectors.

I just noticed this on a ppv:
140 speedo. Just curious--if I got the 140 speedo overlay, I'm assuming the speedo would need to be calibrated to function correctly?
