Seeing as I started this thread, I should mention that when I purchased my 2005 XLS the dealer assured me that ALL Outlanders had heated mirrors, so when I found out mine never, I went back to the dealer and complained.[/align] The dealer did later confirm that for whatever reason the XLS was not equipped with them, and agreed to install them for me, which has now been done.[/align] Living in WinnipegCanada this was must for me, I don't know how long it took for the install as I has other work done under warranty.[/align] [/align] Brian[/align]

 

I guess the XLS is just prewired for the heated mirrors, complete with fuse and wires, and all you needed was the actual mirror with heating elements to be installed. IMO, the fuse and the wires are just there to lessen the hassle of "digging in" when wiring the heated mirrors. Unless someone confirms the current NA Outlander XLSs have actual heated mirrors on them.

 

If your mirror heaters aren't working, get the dealer to check the resistance between terminals 1 and 2 on the mirror connector. Should be 7.2 +- 1.4 ohms at 77 degrees F. If they are out of spec, get them replaced under warranty.

 

Is this thread about 2007 or pre-2007 Outlander? Myimpression was that the 2007 Outlander (all trims) has heated mirrors as an "unadvertised" feature. Could anyone confirm this speculation with some sort of documentation or hard evidence?

 

that just doesnt make any sense, I mean, the XLS is the Top of the Line, why would everything else have heated mirrors, but not the XLS...
thats just weird

 

Anyone have an 07 xls that they can say the side mirrors are heated? Mine dont seem to be.

 

The service manual has only one specification of mirror forall North American 2007 Outlanders - heated. By no means would I ever claim a service manual to be 100% accurate but if you want confirmation for your own peace of mind, go see the stealer and get it tested.

 

Mine are heated and they work. BTW I live in south central BC near Sun Peaks Resort - we get a tonne of snow and cold each winter.

 

I guess I'll have to wait until next winter to find out for sure... LOL
until then, i am going with... if mitsu says it does, then it does...
