Default Power Folding Mirrors and Wiring

Just got my PF Mirrors. Wiring diagram is a little confusing considering its for an EG (most wires are the same). I have absolutely no idea what the color code for the EF9 mirrors are. On the Mirror Switch, the 5th pin is sposed to goto "mirrors". It dosen't say to what specific wire or what else. The rest I think I got down.

Now that I attempted to install them I have a problem at the doors. I have no idea where to start running the wires through the door. I Pulled out the grommet and relized I have to enlarge the opening, meaning I need to rip out something to get to the grommet on my body. Tutorial?

Ok after 3 weekends I am finished. Problem is DA wiring isnt the same as EF so when I hit the fold button they try to move the mirror constantly inward instead of folding. If I hit the down switch on the mirrors, they fold in (seperately of course). Can anyone tell me the wiring for the EF mirrors?

Dam... you got my hopes up when I saw "H-T Notification : Power Folding Mirrors" in my inbox.

I paid something like 250 with the relay and switch all in tact with a cut harness. The hard part is finding the switch and relay.

you should probably bust out your multimeter and start seeing which wires get voltage when you push different buttons.

ok, you said when you hit the fold in button the mirror moves inward, when you push the move inward button does it start to fold?...cross those wires, they should be pretty easy to find at the button

Yea... I've already thought about that. Problem is even if I find out which wire sends voltage, I don't know which one to bridge it to unless I do trial and error. Considering I paid a quantity of money for those I don't feel like bustin a motor for cross-polariting it, even though it should just move the opposite direction.
