I bought the new model mirrors, thinking they would be a direct fit on my 2005 SUT, but when I got them, I noticed they have different connectors than the ones on H2's from 2003-2007.

Here is a picture of the 2003-2007 mirror connectors:

Here are the connectors for the 2008-2009 model:

What can I do to adapt them, and make them fit on my 2005 H2?

Same number of wires and colors? If so there is a tool to release those wires in the plug. Transfer the plug over.

Did you buy them from the dealer? As far as i know if you buy replacment mirrors for an 05 they are the newer style mirrors with all the right connectors. Done that swap on over 50 h2s to date and never had connector issues

HUMTECH: I bought them from eBay, so I wasn't expecting them to have different connectors...

Well if there from ebay then its quite possible they are from an 08 or newer truck which is why connectors dont mate. Gonna need wiring diagrams from both years to see if they can be used. Ill look them up and post them when i get a chance.

Is it possible to make the switch? The number of wires is different, and by looking at those diagrams I can't understand one thing :D

Follow it from left to right. they are all in the same order. The newer side mirror - driver side, on the diagram, far two right wires are going to the inside rear view mirror for something... Thats where the extra wires are. I have on 04, no clue whats on the newer models or what this actually does.
