right as my van didnt have electric mirrors as standard i have fitted some electric ones but want to wire up just the heater in them, does anybody know if it would be possible to join the heater element in the mirror up to the rear heater switch as i dont use the rear window in my van

:thankyou:

I am sure that heated mirrors on the zr and zs are on all the time:)

Sure you could wire into the rear window wiring if you wanted steve, no sure how but would imagine it would be just as easy to wire them up so the whole unit works as it should......that is making little sense to me lol, but i know what i mean:D

the thing is the Rover loom was totally differnet to the MG loom for the central locking, no loom there for the electric windows/mirrors so i had to "retro Fit" the electric windows if you know what i mean, so all i want to do is run a wire from the heated rear window to the "new" mirrors, all i want to know is, is this possible and does anybody know what wires behind the dash to splice into

can only guess at this mate, but i would say pull out the switch and there should be 3 or 4 wires goin into it..1 or 2 for the lighting of the switch and 2 for going an heating up window, these would be the thickers ones so splicing into them should suffice. Could be totally wrong as it's been a long time since i seen the wiring going into one of them switches but should set you on right track...hopefully:)
