Canada Does Not get heated mirrors in the FR-S. Or if we do, there is absolutely no indication whatsoever.

WTF?!?!? I read the manual just now and searched for this.

I was like, how did I not notice that?

So we dont get it here in the US? Sad day! Can we even manually fold the mirrors? I tried to fold it but didnt want to break it. I dont think it budges.

Yes they can be manually folded and you dont have to worry about breaking it!

The Canada FR-S does come with Heated Mirrors. Canadian VS US FR-S are:
- Standard heated mirrors
- Standard all weather mats
- Standard mud flaps.

It's not the worth the work IMO.

I was attempting to do this in my WRX. I sourced the mirrors and the switch out no problem.

It was the fact that I would need to build a whole new system for it, as the switch would need power, as well as it would need something to time it properly.

Don't know how it is like on the FRS, but the switch for the Impreza was constant power. Electrically inclined people should have no problem figuring it out, but when you are as electrically retarded as myself, it was more work then what it was worth.

Not to mention, the mirrors weight a ton more, and you would have to swap the mirror lens over from your existing car.

I want it just because its cool watching it move with a click of a button.
also my arm is not long enough to reach passenger side mirror from driver side if i need to fold them... If anyone else can perform this task, hats off to you freak.
