    Has anyone installed Signal Mirrors on Plugin? My concern is that they are heated, will it still retain that feature?

    I also noticed that the Prius C appeared to have signal mirrors and are heated as well, Wonder why they just didn't have that as the Base for the Plugin....

    Aftermarket signal mirrors tend to just be a cover replacement... not the whole mirror, so yes, it will retain the heater.

    You salvage the mirrors and replace just the mirror covers so you'll still have the same innards.

    Oh, another thought just came across my mind but I am going to assume that the mirror covers are the same for PIP as Gen III.

    Yes, they use the same stock mirrors.
