But will the mirrors be different since they drive on the wrong side of the road?

No mirrors are exactly the same.

Not sure if you were serious or joking...but thanks for the laugh just trying to figure out which. I was even going to jump in and ask if the interior rear view mirror was different as well...because it needs to tilt to the right since ours tilt to the left.

The passenger side convex mirror (#3) with "objects in mirror are closer than they appear" written on it isn't used in most markets outside North America...especially if they are RHD. They use (#2) convex mirror on the passenger side or the wide angle/aspherical (#1) mirror. So as Imy mentions, and as you can see in the pics I posted...it doesn't matter as long as you install a left & right mirror glass on the appropriate side in either plain, convex, or aspherical style.

(the different mirror glass that are available they all have either left or right part nbr)

#3 convex & #4 plain is used in the USA
#1 wide angle & #2 convex & #4 plain is used in Europe

that was one heck of a mod...

I bought my mirrors from the seller from Latvia a year ago for either 60 or 100 dollars, I forget.

Mine were exactly the same as the OP but they are blue tinted and they are not the auto dim mirrors. I love the aspherical mirrors, they help me see so much better. I only bought them because I bought the car with a cracked right side glass so buying the aspherical pair on ebay was cheaper than OE glass from the dealer

Sorry to revive this old thread but I am switching back to OE mirrors and just purchased a set of euro's but don't remember which side is + and which is - for the heated connections. Looking down at the mirrors can someone tell me which side is which:

Ditto what TX5 said...the 2 connections for the heated mirrors doesn't matter...and if I'm not mistaken...both wires are black, aren't they? From memory I can't remember...and in my pic...both wires look black:

Thanks for the help guys. Yes both wires are black on mine also (big dummy I am, that was a given from the start)

i am just speculating but i think in this particular application the polarity does not matter - the connection is NOT keyed as most of the other connections (like the electrochromatic connection is done via a connector).

However, best bet is to consult the WDS...

can't see on the picture - do those little metal "knobs" have numbers marked next to them? like 1 and 2?
