Default Self dimming mirror retrofit?

I thought there was a "how to" somewhere, but I cannot find it. I have a 99, (before the self dimming option was available) and now have in my possession a self dimming mirror from a later car. However, I cannot locate the how to on this. Does anyone have a link?

Thanks!

Highest quality. I think it is the OEM for most GM vehicles. You can get them with compass, outside temperature, map lights and Homelink even.

Not cheap, but that's the price of quality.
