i take you will need the mirrors and the switch assy with vibration function,its all on one harness

your harness has 5 wires (3 for motor,2 for heated mirror)

the aristo has at least 9 wires (2 extra for sonic,2 or 3 for folding- dont know iof it uses reverse polarity(requires control unit) or an extra lead )

im pretty sure i saw a mirror control unit.

Best bet would be to wire a toggle switch up and a relay to operate the folding mirrors instead of trying to emulate the jdm set up to a "T".

The mirror control unit will enable you to open and close your side mirror by a one touch switch. Without the mirror control, u may connect the wires with a pair toggle switch. Then you will endup have a switch at your car that toggle up is mirror open and toggle down is mirroe close. You will need to find a good looking switch to install in your car.
