Default Side Mirror question

My wife yesterday decided to make the car more streamline, she took the passenger side mirror of, its destroyed.
The question is, on E-bay, some of them say you have to have correct letter, such as A or B, i think C, what makes them different, some make no mention of this difference, so does it make any?.

need pearl white 2003 if anyone has.

thanks

For 01-03 model years the letter is A
For 04-06 model years it's B
The letter is on the bottom of the mirror in the circle where the puddle light is. You need letter A. The newer mirror with B letter will NOT fit - I got burned this way, a good lesson for me.
