I understand what you mean because I got one set for myself too, thinking it would just be modding the base and screw holes then everything else plug and play. Surprise, surprise, it turned out to be much more complicated. My wiring man showed me that when he ran current through the correct wire, the side mirror will flip out 90 degrees.. Then continue flipping 180 degrees.. And it still wouldn't stop running! That will cause damage to the motor very soon. Then he showed me, by adding a circuit relay (those from inside the new Toyota side mirrors), the motor will stop running and the side mirror will stop flipping when it has flipped 90 degrees, just how it should work.To solve this problem (that is assuming you haven't solved it yet), firstly, you will need a relay box to give a signal to the side mirror motor to stop running when it should. IIRC, these relays also control the heaters like you said. So the relay box was what I got for the wiring man.. Then, it turned out that you need a correct switch to match the relay too!<img src="https://zerotohundred.com/forums/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/banghead.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":banghead:" title="Banghead    :banghead:" data-shortname=":banghead:" /> There are several types of side mirror autoflip switches out there: the Mitsubishi and Nissan ones are changeover switches, the Toyota SEG and Wagon ones are one-touch switches, the one that comes with the Levin AE111 dashboard is an on-off switch, and the AE92 side mirror control is a one-touch switch. In fact, I think the ST171 Corona side mirror switch is similar if not identical to the AE92 side mirror control, its autoflip switch is a one-touch switch.. I do happen to have an ST171 side mirror controller with me.Because of all that, I decided that it's not worth the hassle to install the AE92 7-wire side mirrors, and got an ST150 3-wire side mirror set instead.. Simple, pnp, no need for those complicated relays and controllers<img src="https://zerotohundred.com/forums/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/thefinger.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":thefinger:" title="Thefinger    :thefinger:" data-shortname=":thefinger:" /> I do still have the AE92 side mirrors with me, do let me know if you're interested, if what other fellow forumers are saying about only changing the motor is true..Yes, what you said about the "got sound, no movement" is true.. Most probably the side mirror motor gears are damaged; they are really fragile. 2 times I had to bring my right side mirror back to the chopshop to be changed because both times the autoflip motor was damaged..<img src="https://zerotohundred.com/forums/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/mad.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":mad:" title="Mad    :mad:" data-shortname=":mad:" />As for wiring specialist, my wiring man is pretty good at these stuff, many big, luxury cars are sent to his place for wiring services, whether it's engine wiring, side mirror, electric windows, electric seats, etc.. Not promoting him or anything, I really do feel that he does know his stuff. As for price, maybe it's a bit high but I dare not say for sure cuz I have never compared with other places.. He's located at Sg. Besi, right after the Bandar Tasik Selatan LRT station.. If you're really interested, let me know..<img src="http://zerotohundred.com/forums/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/burnout.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":burnout:" title="Burnout    :burnout:" data-shortname=":burnout:" /></blockquote>
