:welcome:

It should be a straight swap. THe plugs are on the inside of the door. Unless with the express they changed the door configuration. I know people swap mirrors all the time

Welcome to RF. If your doors have the harness (do you have power windows or power locks?) It should work

Welcome!

If you are interested in some aftermarket replacement mirrors, let me know! I am a vendor for TYC parts. :D

Welcome to RF.

Changing from non-signal mirrors to signal mirrors can't be done, at least not without a flash from the dealer (and even with that I still don't think I've ever heard of someone having success with this route). You can always swap the mirrors, but you won't have the full functionality (it will be for looks only).
