Do they come in white or chrome only and I would have to get them painted white?

The tow mirrors only come in chrome or black.

All 2014s and early 2015s need the additional harness. I am not sure how to check if you have it already or not.

I've just installed the gm non power folding tow mirrors on my slot which came with power fold small mirrors. I don't care about power fold and got them cheap. Everything works but the cargo side leds. With no modifications at all plug in and use. As long as those two leds aren't a deal breaker for you everything else including the turn signals work flawlessly. My dealer came down to $440 for the chrome 2015 non power fold and I bout the so called required harnesses and was going to reprogram but I think I'll return them and save the 100 on reprogram as well. Just depends on your personal analness I guess.

$440. Where is your dealer? Lol. Also what mirrors did you have on before swapping to these?

Do your amber lights on the outside stay on permanently as running lights?

 

Also, if you purchased the accessory set from GM (black 23372182 or chrome 23372181) then it comes with BCM programming with the kit. But to do that properly you need to swap out the door harnesses which is at least 3 hours of labor from your dealer or several hours doing it yourself.

I read through this entire thread and "think" I understand what is involved in swapping the mirrors on my truck, but wanted to ask a few questions just to be sure.

 

I have a 2014 Silverado 1500 double cab (LT/Z71) with power adjust/heated mirrors.

 

  1. Has anyone successfully installed power folding mirrors on a truck that didn't originally have them? I see that lots of people who had the folding option did the swap, but what about people who only had power adjust and heat? I know I would need to get the switch, but that's ok.
  2. Assuming I can install the power folding mirrors by adding the switch and tapping into a power source for the folding option, will the other harnesses work to enable the other features such as turn signals and marker lights? I don't have seat memory, so I am not worried about that.
  3. If power folding mirror is completely out of the question, I may go with the manual folding kit. If I get the full kit and the three harnesses, I assume I can get all of the features to work properly. Is there anything that I should be aware of feature wise?
  4. Last question - looking at the chart that tells you which harnesses to order, I'm not sure the differences in the body styles listed. I have the DL8 mirror, but I'm not sure what the difference between the 03 and the 43, 53 body styles are.

 

Sorry for all of the questions. After reading this entire thread straight through, I wasn't clear on exactly what I can and can't do.

The attached photo chart lists out the body styles more specifically.

 

The attached PDF documents what can and can't be done.

 

From what I have read, people are saying you can order the power folding mirrors and purchase switches as well to get the power folding option. I'm not positive but that is what I think from reading every thread on it. That will be over $1000 easy. If you aren't partial about power folding, the better option would be the official GM accessory detailed in the PDF.

 

You can get the non-powerfolding chrome mirrors for $560 shipped from ShopChevyParts or the all black ones even cheaper from other sources. That comes with two mirrors and authorization for the dealer to flash your BCM if you need it. (this chart says you do - 2014 LD, 53 cab, DL8 mirrors).

 

You still need to purchase the three harnesses (two door harnesses and the RZY harness since you have a 2014) and that will get you manual extend, manual fold, power adjust, heated glass, turn signals, amber running lamp, and white LED cargo lamp (it's not a reverse lamp like some think, it comes on with the cargo lamp button manually).

 

In regards to the BCM flash, plenty of guys have said they didn't need it for one reason or another, so there is really no telling if you do or don't for sure. GM wants to say you do need it but who knows. At least the official accessory kit comes with authorization for a flash where buying the power folding mirrors separately doesn't.

 

I hope I helped, that's all I can answer.

Thanks for all of the info! That was a huge help. I guess I really don't know how often I would really fold them, so I am not sure it is worth twice the price. Plus I prefer the black.

 

I would have to get the three harnesses which aren't cheap, but they really are a nice set of mirrors.

 

Now if I could just figure out how to integrate heated seats using the factory style switches ;^).

Hello all,

 

I just spent an hour at my local dealership submitting a custom order for a 2016 LTZ Z71 1500 crew cab

 

One specific item I wanted was the trailer mirrors. On the Chevy website builder, it allowed me to select the chrome trailer mirrors. When they were submitting the order in their system it wouldn't allow them to choose those mirrors. So I had them place the order as is with the plan to buy the accessory for the trailer mirrors.

 

According to the GM accessories website, the part number is 23372181. Can anyone confirm if these mirrors are power folding or not? If they aren't, they won't work for me.

 

Being a LTZ, the stock mirrors are power folding.

The GM accessory kit is NOT power folding. You have to actually purchase two replacement mirrors from the parts counter.

 

The good news is that with 2x mirrors and 2x door harnesses, it's just a plug and play install. It's 3-4 hours labor if the dealership installs them.

Hey thanks for the response! it's good that there is a way to get the power folding ones.

 

Do you happen to know what part numbers those might be? (hopefully they aren't different for the 2016s)

 

Also, if I do go that route will everything on the mirrors work properly or are there any recodes that have to happen?

 

Fortunately, I know one of the shop managers at the dealer So i'm going to talk to him about it too and see if they will be willing to get the mirrors and have them installed before I pick up the truck.

      first oil change - 2026 2500HD gas

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Does your dealer charge you for the tire rotation on top of the oil change price ?. I haven't had any service work done at my dealer yet other than when I brought it back soon after owning it to have the front end aligned to correct the steering wheel being off center a bit. Oh they called me at least twice hounding me to bring it in for an oil change and pushing a 300.00 package of oil change and tire rotation and whatever other quick simplistic checks they would do. Only going off of what a friend gets charged for his half ton for the basic oil change and its the same amount of oil as the L8T holds, it was about 150.00. Once one buys a set of tires from most shops these days or so I believe, they will do free tire rotations and some do free tire balancing as well as free tire repairs.    Certainly doing a tire rotation is no five minute job, and definitely not at home but because I run a set of winter tires on their own wheels, I swap them at home and its a one tire at a time deal because of the tire season swap although I jack up the rear and do it and drop it back down and then raise the front and do them and coordinate the tire rotation into that process for both sets of tires. I am using a floor jack though and if I need to raise both ends at once I use a couple sets of jack stands to have all four tires off the ground. I use either an air impact or battery impact and have electric impact as well so no shortage there of easy methods to spin the lug nuts, and then retorquing the lug nuts. None of it goes quick though but my wages are cheap though ... zero. I live an hour out of town, its easier just to do things like that myself than waste a bunch of time in town and having to make an appointment and probably a special trip and sit there at the tire shop waiting for them to get my vehicle in and get it done and not screw something up in the process.

      Clunk when coming to a stop... driveshaft/slip yoke? Mechanic couldn't recreate it

      By mrbflat · Posted

      I do have the 8 speed.  Interestingly enough, after driving my truck for the past 2 days now, I have not had the clunking issue at all!  I am beginning to think it may have been suspension/leaf spring related, and somehow when the shop put my truck on the lift to do their initial inspection, it relieved some built up tension/pressure that was causing my problem.  I swear it felt I was a bull rider on a bucking bull the way the truck would almost rock back and forth slightly before the big thud/clunk when coming to a stop.  I am hoping I got lucky here and it's gone for good.

      Bring it to discount tire. They do free rotations even if you didn’t buy your tires there. I didn’t believe it until I tried and they did. You can tip the employee if you would like

      Best part of this video is how it resets expectations. Wonderfully done piece. It also made clear a few points I've made from day one. Detergent oils DO NOT KEEP A MOTOR CLEAN at the recommended or longer change intervals. They just get dirty slower than a non-detergent oil and there isn't spits difference between them on this point if they carry the DEXOS license. Great thing about the license that gets missed is it assures CONFORMITY even it that means a low bar.    One thing he did not talk about that I paused on an magnified was the condition of the oil ring separator. Besides a stuck ring a plugged separator and land drain back is huge when it comes control. We see in short order improvement in control IF that is the problem.    Another item I took exception to and he did not make plain was the condition of the timing chest and under valve cover having something to do with indicating piston cleanliness. Schaeffer's Oil makes that same omission in their million mile Ford video. I'm guessing he has never torn down a Red Line HP, AMSOIL SS motor that has been on that diet from the get. What he showed in the video was a good deal of varnish. Something totally absent in Peppers 165K cover off look. I smiled because he did his at the same milage.    He also makes the mistake of assuming oil temperatures in the pan are the temperature all over the motor even though he makes note of the piston being the hottest part of the engine. that baffled me a bit.    I can tell you from personal experience and witnessing teardowns of family motors that even oils of the 1960's would keep them squeaky clean when OCI's were 1500 to 2000 miles without exception. At 3K and above you get what he experienced and the longer you leave it the quicker to gets to the junkyard.    I think his is missing a opportunity not tearing it down again when he's done killing it. Time would be his only cost.

      GM discontinuing interior parts on a 5YO vehicle??

      By Z45 · Posted

      Very often the part number on the trim part is just for the vendor order/assembly plant and will not show up in the parts system.  They won't make a bunch of extra parts that were not ordered. Keep in mind, lots of these parts were made to be "just in time" parts meaning they were dedicated to a vehicles ordered and sequenced for assembly.       Also, trim parts will often say, paint to match.
