New Bulbs/Side Mirror Issues

1. If you want a white bulb, the Silverstar Ultra is probably the one to get. Still, you don't get as much light out of these as you do with even a standard halogen bulb. I would recommend any of the high efficacy bulbs out there, such as the GE Nighthawk or Philips Vision Plus or Silvania Xtravision. I actually have high beam bulbs modified to fit into my low beam housings. And I have Xtravision versions of the high beams in there. There's a LOT of light. But because the bulbs are still halogen bulbs, they're aimed correctly with the correct pattern. For the fogs, I have GE Nighthawks in mine. If you're looking for white, get the Silverstars, but again, you won't get as much light out of them, and you'll most likely experience a shorter life span.

2. I don't now what to say about the mirrors. Possibly a bad switch or motor in the mirror. Probably the switch, if one side works but only intermittently.

3. The HVAC knobs themselves are back-lit, but just the little arrowhead on the dial. On the rest of the HVAC panel, all the colored markings are lit, such as the mode selector (panel, defrost, etc), the temperature selector, and the fan speed selector. If none of your lights are working, the bulbs may be gone from there, too...but I think they're small LEDs, so it'd be odd for them to be missing.
