Installing power mirrors - tried it? 700

Last weekend at the junkyard there was a '90 (I think) with power mirrors. I contemplated adding it to my 1991 (it only has the manual remote mirrors, so the passenger has to adjust your right hand mirror for you). I'm wondering if anyone has tried it or done it.

Would the wiring be in the car already, and all I'd have to do is plug in the mirrors and switch panel? Or would I have to dig up all the wiring and put it all in - that would be a pain, and probably not worth it.

I feel compelled to have every single option that was available on this car. That has been a compulsion I have had with every car I've owned. I hate looking at blank spots in the dashboard, where switches should go, so I'm also considering finding a fog light setup and adding those.

But any thoughts or input on the power mirror idea would be appreciated.
