i changed the mirrors on my old eb to the el ones and the mirrors fit but you will have to drill one hole in the door for the front screw ..
and i just cut and soldered the eb plugs on the el mirrors..

and i got ef handles on my ea and the handles fit straight on ...

TROYMAN is right a extra hole has to be drilled at the front of the door and the weather strip has to be changed to a EF or EL one, i've just done this on my wagon,havn't done the wiring yet tho.
