Well take some measurements of a Grand Prix mirror to see if it fits. On my 94 lumina vs a 94 Grand Prix not alot fit. the pull down door handle looked the exact same but was 2 inches shorter then my Lumina.

There is a member on here (not sure who) that put '97-'03 Grand Prix mirrors on his '00-'05 Monte. Looks like they bolt right up. The gotcha is the electrical connections. As I understand the connectors are different, so some modifications have to be done. But based on what I recall, it is do-able.

Are those GP headrests the graphite color (IE... almost the same as ebony) common to GPs?
