Aftermarket side view mirrors, any good?

I had an 18 wheeler rip off my driver side mirror the other day, luckily no other damage but I need a new one and looking online I see aftermarket stock replacements. Are these any good, anyone have experience with using them? Also, I currently do not have heated mirrors to my knowledge unless all ralliarts come with them and theres no switch but if I buy a heated version, will it plug right up to the harness and work?

Which one are you looking for?

When I read the specification, I believe all RA come with heated mirror.

My US -Spec 2011 SB w/touring package did not. I think only the Canadian Models did in 2011, not sure about the 2012+

Well, I hope the aftermarket mirrors are good quality because Im not spending 300 bux on a mitsu mirror.
