Wtb: 2007-2011 Rearview Mirror With Comp/temp

Mirage775 · May 21, 2011

I'm looking to upgrade my my rearview mirror on my 2011 Silverado. I have Onstar, so I would need the 3 Onstar buttons on the mirror, as well as the Compass and Outside Temperature display. I'm assuming this is a simple plug and play swap? If not, someone please let me know? New or used, doesn't bother me, as long as it works well. Thanks, Jason

Found a couple on ebay like I'm looking for. They're from 2006 back, but says they'll work in trucks up to 2011? Can anyone confirm this? Thanks

If nobody has one for sale, but knows which one will work on my truck, could you tell me please? There are several on ebay, just not sure which one to buy? Thanks, Jason

Since the seller is in Mobile, you shouldn't have any problem getting this to work. He's great to work with, and will do whatever it takes to get his products to work right. That's where I got mine.

I just did this upgrade. You will have to run power to the mirror and get a temp sensor and harness to make this work. Not too bad.

PS. I got the Gentex 261. I think the guy in Mobile, mentioned earlier, has these with instructions on installation.

Nice! That's the guy on ebay I've been talking too. What about the compass? Where's the gryro at?

The compass is built into the mirror. Nothing extra to do for that. Nice upgrade.
