2nd Gen F-Body Side Mirror Upgrades?

[jeffandre]

Looking to see what others have done on 2nd Gen F-Bodies for side mirrors, like C5 Vette or maybe 90's Buick Lesabre's. I do not have any side mirrors yet, so starting with a clean slate (body work not done yet either, so mods to door are okay).

What did it take to mount mirrors to door? Custom brackets? Grind/file on base to fit door curves? Do the bases cover the stock mount holes?

What did it take to wire them up for the power and heat options? My AAW harness has a number of extra circuits, ranging from 15-30 amps, so electrical not an issue. What control knob was used? Factory or aftermarket?

I can get new power and heated Buick mirrors for about $110/set, but would still need to get the wiring and control stuff. Might be best to visit the local bone yard first to try to get everything...
