I have a 2015 1500 2WT. I wanted to install the towing mirrors but the only thing stopping me is that I live in a condo building and park in the garage. the entrance of the garage is just enough (save a few inches) for me to get in with the basic stock mirrors. I would love the towing mirrors but with the folding feature. I'm hoping this is possible and what would I need.... Thanks.

 

P.S. I would need everything, that meaning the turn signal lights, wires, etc etc.

 

 

I have helped over 100 members achieve this upgrade. PM me and will work through it with you.

Take a look at this How To I just created. I just finished this upgrade and ran into the same issues you did. The reason why you lose functionality is because the harness you got is pinned out for t

Hey All, just completed the DL8 to DL3 mirror swap on my '15 GMC Sierra SLE. The magical door harness from the All Terrain exists. I bought a set of dl3 mirrors and door harness from a guy with a '16

Ok when I mean the folding feature, I mean the mechanically folding feature, not manually folding because I don't want to be reaching all the way over to the passenger side to do it everyday.

 

Sorry if not clear enough the first time. If this is possible I'm sincerely interested.

Do you have power mirrors now? As in the ability to adjust your mirrors up/down, left/right?

The power features that I have are to move the mirrors up down left and right, only.

That correct. As long as you have that, you are good to go for upgrading.

I have a 2015 Chevy Tahoe LT. My stock mirrors can only move up,down,left and right. No other options. I just purchased used 2015 Escalade mirrors with every option. What module or part could I purchase to get the most options out of them? Thanx for your time

Hey guys. I just purchased a new 19 Sierra limited dblcab. It does have power mirrors but not folding. What do I need to do to achieve this?

Thx

      The whole story is false. The screw is there as a temporary fix to allow the pump to even turn on. When the nozzle is returned the pump shuts off.. At this point people are just being punked   https://youtu.be/1DtlaEuHXAA?si=06mrRmw9HLUwdeRk   https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1CyRZdsaSc/ https://www.facebook.com/share/r/1DxV1Hyrqi/       SNOPES: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/19HPYUnRik/

      Not exactly what I was hoping for, but I do like it. I wonder if they'll bring back Smokey Quartz Metallic? 🤔 https://gmauthority.com/blog/2026/06/here-is-the-all-new-2027-gmc-sierra-1500/

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      Whoever greenlighted the work truck matte black front bumpers on every trim but the AT4X should be fired!  I was hoping that was an AI mistake, but just realized they were on every model of the 2027 Silverado too.     Some parts of the interior do look premium, but the Denali Ultimate dashboard looks like an afterthought.  At least they appear to have lost the microfiber the high end Silverado models showed, but the '27 High Country dash looks better than the Denali.

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By bluev8 · Posted

      New member here. I am researching a read-first event-recorder concept for late-model GM V8 trucks. This is not a sales post. There is no product link, price, preorder, or mailing list. I am trying to determine whether the underlying problem is real before building anything.   Has your truck ever had a brief problem such as: - rough running or a momentary misfire - an oil-pressure warning or unusual pressure event - reduced power or a brief stall - a U-code or lost-communication problem - a symptom that disappeared before the dealer or independent shop could reproduce it   If so, I would appreciate the following details: - year, model, engine, and mileage - what happened and under what conditions - whether a DTC and useful freeze-frame data were stored - whether the shop was able to reproduce it - what the eventual confirmed repair was, if known - what additional information would have helped the diagnosis   The concept being evaluated is a removable leave-in recorder that continuously retains a rolling window from before and after an event. It would not tune, reflash, clear codes, or change the vehicle calibration.   I am also not claiming that it could predict lifter failure or see every internal ECM variable.   The real question is whether continuous event history would add enough useful evidence beyond freeze frame, GDS2, and existing scan tools — or whether it would simply be another unnecessary gadget.   For owners and technicians, which problem would make something like this genuinely useful: 1. intermittent misfire or AFM/DFM-related behavior 2. oil-pressure events 3. lost communication or electrical faults 4. none of the above Please be blunt. Negative feedback is just as useful as positive feedback.
