I have 2008 Honda EX. This didn't come with heated mirrors. EX-L comes with heated mirrors as standard. When I made the comparison between the two. I find that not many parts are needed to get heated mirrors. All harnesses are same for EX and EX-L models.
Needed parts:
76203-SVA-C11 MIRROR, R. (HEATED)
76215-SVA-C11 ACTUATOR, L. (HEATED)
76210-SVA-C11 ACTUATOR, R. (HEATED)
76253-SVA-C11 MIRROR, L. (HEATED)
39794-S10-003 RELAY ASSY., POWER (5P) (MICRO ISO) (MITSUBA) {This relay is to be placed in position 8 inside the fuse box under the hood (CONTROL UNIT (ENGINE ROOM) (2))}
Optional part:
79501-SNA-C01ZA KNOB SET B *NH608L* (You need this only if you want the mirror symbol on the defroster switch)
It works like a charm.
Harness in the car that has wiring for heated mirrors (should have 5 wires)
first remove the side cap on the door and unplug the harness. Unbolt the mirrors and remove it. You can it on a table where you comfortable replacing the actuator and mirror.
Heated mirror actuator with two wires from the plug. It is essentially the same actuator but the adds two wires for the heater from the white plug. If you can run the wires from the harness the car directly to the heater, then you may avoid this actuator cost!

the two extra pins for heater
old actuator in the mirror housing
mirror with heater and without heater. look for the two pins in the left side
removed outer housing of the mirror
actuator pins with heater and without heater. see the difference is only to to extra pins in the second row for heater which ends two wires with plugs which is shown in the few above and below pictures

I have added the switch on the dashboard to make it look perfect like a factory installed. If you are interested you may venture into that as well.
