Default EK Power Folding Mirror question

Hi everyone, I just had a few quick questions regarding power folding mirrors for my 99 Ex sedan. I've done extensive researching and found all the wiring diagrams that I need for this project. Before starting on it, I'm just wondering what gauge primary wires will I be needing to run the extra wires needed for the folding mirror option? I saw a write up for an EG that suggested buying 16 gauge wires, but then again I saw on another thread regarding power mirrors only and it said EG wires were thicker than Ek. Has anyone done this project and remembered what gauge wire they use? Or can anyOne confirm the wire size for the mirrors? I'm thinking it's 18 gauge but I just wanna make sure before I go out an buy all the wires and plugs needed. Thank you in advance.

I'm not sure but they appear to all be the same size.
