So black and white are for the heated function on the mirrors?
Do you know what wires connect up from the drivers to the passengers side so i can move the passenger mirror?

So to sort of clear things up
Brown = Earth
Black/White = Live for mirror heating?

Test with a multi meter. Also, get yourself a Haynes manual as they have the wiring diagrams in them.

I dont understand the haynes manual diagrams.
Also with a multi meter how would i determine the heated mirror wires without a voltage?

surely if theres only two wires from the mirrors they'd work any way around.

the black/white wires from both mirrors are actually split they both run from the one switch, ie you can have 1 wire coming out the switch then split it to each mirror
