So this looks exactly what I'm looking for. Ummmm... I just realized I'm in the 1500 forum, would this all be applicable to the 2500?

If you have a gas 2500 these mirrors should be the same, not sure about the harness. Diesels have an ambient temp sensor in the pass mirror so that mirror would def be different but drivers side should be the same.

The harness differences between gas and diesel (if any) would be the (2) temp sensors circuits. I am finding that later model trucks and their harnesses are coming pinned with these two circuits now, even though they are not needed for gas. Earlier model harnesses were optioned based on the need.

Jesus it's hard to find information in this thread. So I have a 2015 double cab SLE. I just have power glass so that's DL8 correct? So I need harness's 23342729 and 23342715 right? Do i need OEM GM mirror's or can I use just any tow mirror for the truck and the harness will work? OEM tow mirrors are mad expensive.

Agreed. I made a comprehensive thread with hopes that it answers all there is to know about upgrading mirrors.

Hope this helps. And yes, those harness #s should work.

 

I can make the equivalent to those harnesses if needed and will guarantee fitment with a refund if they don't.

So I'm looking at the 1A Autoparts site as the other thread started by pgamboa seemed to indicate I could get the mirrors there.

 

I found these: https://www.1aauto.com/mirror-pair/i/1amrp01796?f=1103292&y=2016

 

But the lady I spoke to said they wouldn't work because they were for the diesel.

Do you think my truck would accept these and just have the PIN for the diesel but it doens't do anything? That would be nice as I don't want to go the $975*2 mirror price and $225*2 harness price. :(

That's $2400..... frack

And I just got off the phone with a GM parts dealership who quoted $1870 for the mirrors, plus $350 for the harness, plus $400 for some kit and they AREN'T powerfold... What the heck?

 

I'm truly confused haha.

Just to update everyone.

I installed my tow mirrors. The exact parts provided by Black Denali Canada matched what I needed. Basically installed over the course of 5-6 hours. Hands got quite chopped up in the process. I'm either clumsy or have large hands (likely both), it wasn't easy, but not hard. Getting the wire harness in and out was the painful part.

 

I ordered the parts from a gmparts depot. They ended up costing ~$1750 CDN for the towing powerfold, reverse light, signal light, memory mirror, etc. chrome versions.

 

Now what to do with my wire harnesses and smaller mirrors? Anyone want to buy? I priced them out at a dealer and they cost $1,656,22 for all the parts and harnesses and online you'd have to pay $1140 approximately. Plus shipping. I'm thinking $750 CDN for all the parts would be fair.

Not sure on your pricing model..But the prices on 1A Auto's site is for the pair of mirrors. Also, $225 (if referring to my harness price) is for the set (driver and passenger side), not each.

I sell them OEM GM for $1029 shipped within the 48 states. We also ship to Canada for a little more. In case you need other options. :)

Lol, thanks guys. But I got them already from gm parts depot, as per the most recent post.

Cost $1750 CDN. Which is about $200 more than the $1029 quote when changed to CDN. Thanks though.

Yup, will update shortly with some pics. For interests sake using the old harnesses would have worked. The mirrors would have been plug and play except ONE feature didn't transfer. The reverse LED spot lights. I debated not bothering to do, but then figured the harnesses were the cheapest part of the order that I might as well do it. It was also the 5 of the 6 hours haha.

 

I think I've got the mirrors sold this weekend. Just need to sell the old harnesses. pgamboa you interested in a buying set of wires to tinker with? I don't mind shipping them to you.

If you have the smaller DL3 Mirrors and used the same harness on towing mirrors, the park lamp would not have worked like factory. It would have appeared to be working as it would have leveraged the puddle lamp circuit to illuminate the park lamp. These two circuits operate differently.

 

Puddle lamps only come on at night and when the doors are unlocked/opened. Once you get it in, close the door, the puddle lamp circuit turns off.

 

Park Lamps will turn on when you unlock your truck, anytime the low beam lamps are on and will remain on all the time at night.

 

The 18-pin mirror connector uses Pin #1 for both Park Lamp and Puddle Lamp, but are routed to a different location on the door jamb connector. So depending on what mirror your truck comes with, it will be pinned accordingly.

Sounds very confusing but I have dissected this MANY MANY times. LOL.

 

As for your old harness set, I do offer a $40 USD core refund for members that buy my harness set to help them in the net cost in doing this upgrade. I have extended this for anyone looking to get rid of their harness even if they don't buy from me. I'm sure the cost to ship them to me would be more than the $40 though.

 

If the day comes where I am not able to get cores back, or have to start buying these harness for more than $40, I may have to pull the plug on this program.

Well, since I just took a bunch of pics after the lift was put on last week, I'll throw one up.

These are the DQS mirrors that I swapped out the chrome covers for the black covers, no chrome for me.

      first oil change - 2026 2500HD gas

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Indeed a proper drain tap or drain valve with adapter that has a hose on it that opens up the valve as the adapter goes on is a slick setup and have that for certain highway tractors etc and other equipment that came from the factory with a tap but this L8T is pretty darned good other than me doing it on the floor and easy to touch hot exhaust and am not as agile as I used to be !. If I really want to pull a hot filter on an engine I will use an insulated set of thick neoprene gauntlet gloves but I am not in the hurry I used to need to be so things are done more relaxed and in theory somewhat safer ... I think LOL.    And as I mentioned the unique shape of the Amsoil 1 quart containers, while they might not work as well as an offset pour spout container for some awkward engine location applications, they are working a lot better with my Lisle funnel kit because of how they prop up on all four corners when upside down resting on the rim of the funnel where the typical quart container would never stay put without holding onto it.

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

      By mrbflat · Posted

      Well, I just hit 100K a few weeks back, and I can honestly say I have not had any major issues with my '21 5.3 Crew cab.  I have done most routine maintenance, oil changes, air filter, tire rotations, and a transmission drain and filter change (not even a full flush).  A couple of months ago, I started experiencing the dreaded CLUNK when coming to a stop, sometimes hard enough to literally push the truck forward! After researching here and in other forums/youtube videos, etc, I was thinking it's the slip yoke. I finally had a chance to take it to my local mechanic today, and he was not able to recreate the issue.  Amazing, since it does it nearly every time I drive.  He also said he can't simply grease my slip yoke/driveshaft splines, because I have a 1 piece driveshaft.  I am not sure what else I can do.  Has anyone else had this issue or have any idea what else it could be?

      This is where the Fumoto drain valve comes in handy.  No mess and able to change oil hot, like right off the interstate hot.  Flows nice and you can direct it into a container. As for the oil filter, I use an old dixie cup or plastic one from McDonalds. It contains the oil as you pull the filter down and not all over your hand.

      Which 2027 engine will you choose?

      By Black02Silverado · Posted

      Well, if it did change from lifters to rocker arms, at least it would be easier to fix as they fail.

      HighMileage oils or stay with Dexos 1 ?

      By Black02Silverado · Posted

      Doesn't hurt to try.  It's my understanding that you have to run it at least 4 or 5 oil changes for things to get clean.  Think about it, your engine didn't get dirty in just an oil change so over time it will slowly clean. It's the safest way to do it and not have seal issues.      I remember  a product that came out a long time ago, AutoRX, it was an additive you put in the oil and then drove for 3k miles. Some saw improvements and some didn't. It was suggested to use a non synthetic with it at the time. Same observation, use a couple oil changes and give it time to work. It also stated it worked best if you could drive on trips to keep the oil hot.  I'm sure if you ask AI it could tell you all about it.
