I would think you should be able to look at the connector on the truck side and see what wires are there... if they're all there then i guess they just aren't connected further on down the line. I just ran wires to my turn signals and taped into them, didn't affect the flashing speed. Clearance lights, same deal. Heat option, well you need to get 12 volts over to it and have a switch somewhere to control it...

The heated mirrors worked in conjunction with rear window defrost, if you don't have it then you'll need to wire it to a switch.
