How easy is it to retrofit electric wing mirrors?

I have a 14-plate Hyundai i20 and would like to know if I can install electric mirrors instead of the manual ones. There is a space on the door for the wires.

It's possible, but you would require a considerable level technical knowledge to do this. A Haynes manual might assist with the wiring diagram, you will also need the wiring loom, plastic covers and controllers. Might be best to speak to an independent Hyundai specialist. You should be able to find one with our Good Garage Guide: good-garage-guide.honestjohn.co.uk
