Do you have to remove inside door panel to run wire to original signal control?

You can! But I removed the mirror and ran wire down the door into the engine. .. sounds confusing but its not

I ran the wires through the side mirror to an opening in the car firewall to the original signal light wires and spliced the wires to the original wires . I grounded the black wire to the frameI had to lenghthen the wires by soldering an additional 4 feet of wire to what was provided as they are very short. I did this on both sides of my car and they work fine. Be sure to properly insulate any soldering or connections you might make in the wires.

I installed these on my motorhome so there wasn't a door panel but I'm assuming if there was one you would have too. Btw these work very well and was simple to install.

No, had to run wires up thru the kick panel, thru the flex hose into the door and straight up 3 or 4 inches into the slot that goes to the outside side of the door into the mirror.

Mine is direct wired into the panel box to it's own breaker and left on all the time. You need to have a qualified electrician do the install.

Yes. It comes with the same connector you now have so no rewiring necessary. However, back plate is slightly different so you have to remove your old one and install new back plate. No big deal tho..

Yes you do, there are instructions about connecting some wires in case you want the lines. I prefer not to have the lines so I did not connect it that way.

Yes you will need wire strippers soldering gun digital volt meter screwdrivers and other hand tools and patience also if you can a wiring diagram unless you are not using door lock function

Not at all...I just used the splice connectors and tied into the factory wires

Not necessary if you leave the wiring hanging out of the drywall if new construction at your desired locations. If existing construction not needed at all.

When I replaced the driver side, I did have to open the door panel. I didn't consider it to be easy, but it isn't impossible with basic tools and some diligence. I also have the passenger side mirror, which I haven't replaced yet. I assume it will be a similar job.One humorous note, unless you are a super perfectionist and then I suppose it will annoy you, was the control wires were incorrectly positioned in the connector. So, none of the power control directions match the mirror response. It isn't the kind of thing that I care too much about.

both, enough wires inside for any type of installation. I wired it myself and works fine, follow the diagram and you'll see there will be wires that you will not use anyway. adaptable to any situation

Yes you will need to splice the wires. I would also suggest that you order extra flags.

Yes. Just remove the module to avoid tracking the wrong wire through a closed circuit.

Yes. As a matter of fact, they include new wiring pigtails that I did not use. I left the original pigtails in place and connected the new switches to them, which simplified the work.

Yes it is. I ran one wire from battery to pos bar on back of panel ( fuse side of switch ) separate circuits to other side of switch. Mast, cabin, instruments, running. I ran neg off battery to neg bar. Then just ran one wire from bar to neg bar on panel. Hope this helps

There is a punch out located on the rear of the bottom that can be removed so you can route wires. Also, you can easily remove the door and side panels while installing equipment to make it lighter and to help wire routing.

I have this box as well . you will run your wiring to the back side of the connector.

As I remember, the wires are sticking out from the enclosure. In any case... Wiring these is really simple.

Not really. I am sure that you can wire it in to the control box but the one that it comes with is nice. I mounted the one that came with the bar in the console above my other one and it looks and works great. My only complaint about this bar and controller is that the traffic advisor is defaulted to on when you turn the controller on.
