[DML] Re: mystery wire in door

["welmoedj" <joe.dalton@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The not connected wire is nt for the (optional) heated mirrors.
I have heated mirrors installed and they work like a charm (would not 
have if the wire was not connected IMO).

I recall Toby Petersons door poppers instruction sheet mentioning an 
unused white wire in the door cable set that could be used for 
powering the actuators. That option however involved opening up the 
interior roof panel. I did not go that way.

Welmoed.
