aftermarket heated mirrors?

my question is exactly that.. has any one seen an aftermarket heated mirror? the reason i ask is my MR comes with heated mirrors...but.. they are huge!.. and the gigantic mirrors bother me, but i dont want to lose the heated option. so if anyone has seen one..and thats not ugly.. post it up!

worst case ill just stick with what i got

Dont need heated mirrors in Florida. Never seen or heard of aftermarket heated mirrors since they are always trying to go more towards form and not function.

I think it is Evosoul that has them. But you may want to search for the module that just connects to the back of the glass and see if thats an option.

Where does a wider view behind the car come into play?

Sorry I don't follow your question... its the side mirrors I want to replace. I find the impede vision while I am driving, like turning and what not. But as I stated theyre heated stock. But it would be nice if I could get smaller better looking mirrors and keep the heated function. But doesn't look like ill find such a thing

I dont know if they can work or not, but maybe if you were to buy aftermarket mirrors, you can see the heating mechanism in the stock mirror and see if you can somehow rig it to work on the aftermarket mirror. Just a thought, not sure if it will work, so dont hold me to it.

There is a company out of Singapore I believe who does them, They are still about $300 dollars though. The 2010 were the first supposedly to come out with heated mirrors. Ive wanted them something bad but will wait for better pricing or a part out!
