Default auto dimming RHD external rear view mirror...aftermarket install?

See a copy of my email to the local stealership below....

Mr "X"
I am trying to investigate if my 2002 SLK32 has been wired to accept an auto dimming external side rear view mirror.
Is there any way you can tell from my VIN?
VIN = WDB1680322J338531

See Item 1&2 in attach….

I’ve just replaced my interior mirror – fantastic! The auto dimming is brilliant.
I’m hoping I can buy a new RHand side auto dimming mirror glass and even though the car may not have originally come with a “heated” and/or “auto dimming” mirror, if I buy one it will simply plug in…
I’m also assuming it picks up its dim “command” form the interior one (if you can find out - ??).

Now if anyone is cluey enough to scruitinise the electrical diagrams....it may very well tell the story....
