Default '06 mirror conversion on an '03

Hey guys,

I am planning on doing the 06+ color match mirror conversion on my 03 soon, But before I buy the mirrors with the caps and start modifying them, I want to make sure that the power 06+ mirrors will work with the power connections that my power mirrors now use.

Also am I able to buy the caps already painted to match the color of my truck or am I going to have to get them painted?

Is anyone on here selling 06+ power mirrors with the caps already painted to match the bright red or paint code "E4" (That's what code is on the sticker on the inside of the door.)
Thanks

Is the rewiring an extensive project or is it fairly simply?
