Heated Mirrors?

Larry_in_Seattle · Dec 5, 2015

I'd really like to replace the existing RAV4 EV side mirrors with heated ones because living here we get snow, sub-freezing temperatures, and not being able to see is a pain.

Does anyone know if ICE 2012 RAV4 heated mirrors could be interchanged? Are the EV versions more aerodynamic or different in some way? Are there other options?

I suspect that the heated mirror will just bolt on, but the RAV4 EV mirrors are from a South Korea market Toyota and are smaller and more aerodynamic.

Not sure about the heated, but I was under the impression that the RAV4 EV side mirrors were the same as some 2013+ Avalon and Prius Cs.

I recall that the mirrors are heated. They're connected to the rear window defrost

I will definitely check that out! With luck, that's the end of this thread.

Verified it today. Both are heated, turned on with the rear window defrost

Thank you!
I also verified it today, so your recommendation was perfect.
