Install heated mirrors

My SE didn't have heated mirrors, but I'm replacing my broken ones with some mirrors that were in a car that had the option. It doesn't look like the wiring matches up, but I can identify the regular power mirror 3 wire setup. I have two more wires coming from the repl. mirror blue/white and brown. Anybody tried this, what should I look for . I am pretty sure it's the rear window defrost circuit.

it is just a plug and play, there should be a extra pllug in the door where the mirrors motor is.
one is for the motors and one is for the heated mirror.

mirrors

It could be that my replacement came from a 96 Maxima, also I don't see the extra plug in the door to connect the heater plug coming from the mirror which has two plugs.

Just splice the appropriate wires for power. If your replacement mirror has the heated wires, just tuck those away and don't use since your car didn't come with the heated mirror option. Nissan only offers the heated mirror option if your car came with the comfort and convenience option (more than likely with the auto A/C). So, if you don't have that package, there is no harness in the door for the heated mirrors.
