: Is the Armada & QX56 mirror switch different?

I purchased the new folding mirrors for my 2005 LE Armada, but what appears to be an infinity mirror switch does not look the same as the armada mirror switch that I have seen in photos. I also found an Infiniti mirror switch for sale online and it is from a 2004 QX56 but it is different from my Armada switch, both without the power fold option, but the backside of it looks like the same wire harness as the new power fold switch, which is definitely different than the Armada. Sorry if that was confusing, but I will purchase a Nissan power switch and hope that my wiring harness fits it. But please chime in before I purchase this part if you have any insight. The 2006 or newer part number for the mirror switch on QX56 would be appreciated, I have the part number for the Nissan.

Thanks

Her are some pictures to reference. Pretty sure at this point that the Armada and Qx56 have a different mirror switch and wiring harness. I am off to the dealer to pick up an Armada switch and hoped that I am right. This will make life much easier on this mod as I had anticipated.

Pic 1. is from a 2006 Armada LE. Pic 2 is a 2005 LE and a 2007 QX56 Pic 3 is the back. Pic 4 is from a 2004 QX56. They are both different on the front style and the wiring harness.

OK, just so I don't confuse people for future reference, I was just informed that the switch I received came off a Maxima and would need to be modified for the wiring harness. Ordered Armada switch from dealer and will wait for it to arrive to proceed. Reinstalled old switch for now, and mirror adjustors work great, and no issues with the fitment with the new mirrors, bolted on in about 10 minutes each, just make sure you run the harness from the mirror around the power window slot or it will catch on the mirror harness. Very easy to install.

Yes, thanks to your previous posts, I did pick up on those needing replaced. They should be here tomorrow with some other stuff I had previously ordered from Fontana. My originals are back on there for now, but they won't survive long, definitely a one time use product.
