Just as an FYI to anyone else possibly needing this in the future. I swapped out my DL8 mirrors for the DL3 turn, puddle and power fold models.

I found this great PDF, as a step by step on how to remove the door panel and replace the mirror. It made my swap a snap and I hope it helps others.

Me? I got them on ebay. I was looking at them at a salvage yard but I just decided to searh on ebay a guy was selling two BRAND NEW laser blue '11 mirrors so I didn't have to paint and they have every option (heated, turn signal, power fold, and even blind spot indicator. I paid $308 I know that's kinda expensive but I don't have to paint and they are BRAND NEW! I will install Monday and let you guys know if everthing works fine...
