Default 1998. 1/2 2.8q side mirror Q. does it have heated and dimmer side mirrors?

my dealer changed one side mirror it has heated option but i think it doesn't have auto-dim option anymore.
do i get just one features or both?
thanks...
ps: since when they changed shape of side mirror? 2001? because the new mirror doesn't fit to my old style mirror perfectly.
thanks

Default Heated outside mirrors standard; auto-dimming optional.

I believe auto-dimming mirrors came as part of Convenience Package (also including moonroof, memory driver's seat, memory outside mirrors, HomeLink). If you originally had auto-dimming mirrors, it sounds like your dealer either installed the wrong replacement mirror or failed to properly connect the wiring.

Default 98's did not have auto-dimming mirror-glass

only heated.
But the wiring is present, so they can easily be swapped...
