A - Yes I have, in fact I believe all Bravos sold in Denmark had heated mirrors. I'm surprised they sold any without heated mirrors.
B - It turns on when You turn on the heated rear window (down by the heater controls).
C - No idea.

i also think the heated mirrors were standard on the bravo.
They turn on with the rear demister.
i would suggest just checking that yours still have continuity... the heating element does eventually break.

Try turning them on and touch the mirror glass with you fingers, you should be able to feel it warming up (depending on the outside temperature).
I haven't tried this myself, so i'm not sure if it works

Y'know from all the time i've owned the bravo. i've never noticed, however i've never once deiced my mirrors, so must be so good it's natural! Just tried however turning the rear heater thing, and to my amazement the mirrors got warm genuinely impressed.

I have to be honest. I don't think I've ever needed to de-mist my wing mirrors

Thought I'd test mine out. Still work. At least we have found something reliable on a Fiat. Hahaha
