  1. This is a follow up to what I did to get towing mirrors on my 2015 (very early build) 2500HD gas Siverado LTZ. I did get some very good advice from pgamboa to help me understand what I was up against and my options. I gave the truck to my 16yr old daughter to haul her LQ horse trailer and she needed to have towing mirrors. I wanted to to keep it as simple as I could to save time and money, but they had to be functional as far as power adjust and blinkers. I ordered from mirrors from A1auto item TRMRP00045 for 389.00. These mirrors do not have the power fold option, but do have LED turn signal, LED marker lights, power adjust, and are heated. They are also manual telescoping. To install, it took me about 45mins total and I have all funtions except he LED spotlight does not work. For my early build, it would have required many hours of wiring and harness change to get not only the spotlights working, but also the power fold and memory. I haven't driven he truck at night yet to see if the puddle lights work as they did with the factory mirrors. I do now have a good pair of DL3 factory mirrors for sale on Dallas CL.
  2. Thank you pgamboa......I will update the thread on how this works out. When I bought this truck, the dealer told me it was one of the first 2015,s for the new model year and apparently, they did some changes later in the year. Once I get the mirrors on this truck figured out, I have a 2017 GMC 1500 that I may put towing mirrors on and hopefully, it won't be as difficult.
  3. I am new to the forum and have been researching towing mirrors for my 2015 Chevy 2500HD LTZ gas since we purchased a LQ horse trailer. I am planning on giving this truck to my daughter so she can trailer her horses around when she turns 16 (couple of months). In 2015 and 2016 I asked a dealer if they could put towing mirrors on my truck and was told it would need a new harness and they didn't have them yet. I have not contacted a dealer since and decided I need to do this myself, but after reading 100,s of posts, I am still confused as I have one of the earliest 2015,s made (feb/2014). From reading pgamboa posts have a wealth of information and I think I understand most of it, but I hoping he or someone can let me know exactly what I will need to upgrade my DL3 to the 1AAuto mirrors 1AMRP01786 (if I even can). 2015 2500HD built in Feb/2014, LTZ, gas with options AY0, A45, DL3. It does have the memory seat option. I am pretty sure I will need at least the 2 wiring harnesses and I live in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. My truck was in the body shop for over 2 months getting hail damage repaired and I just got it back. I have not bought any of the parts yet but will once I know what I am up against. The main things that are important to me is the power fold, power adjust, and turn signals. I really want to get towing mirrors on before my daughter get her license. Thanks everyone.
