As far as I know, all EF mirrors are electric so you might be out of luck there. Easiest thing would be conversion to electric mirrors, but keep in mind the EF mirror wiring loom is different from the EA-ED one. I'm not sure what else is involved...

i want to put the ef/el mirrors on my car soon too, i know the loom is different but will it work to just change the plug of my eb mirrors over to the ef/el mirrors? also i know you need to drill some new mounting holes.

its not hard if you use the right drill, cordless drills are hopeless for metal. use a power drill, you'll get through it in seconds!
i think its only 1 hole per side anyway, 2 per side tops.

i'd just like to know about the loom what i was asking before?
