Most here want tow mirrors with the lighting. I haven't had my hands on mirrors without the lighting.

Not me. Just want to keep it simple. Would TRMRP00012 work?

I don't see any strange wiring outside of their connector so these should be good to go. No extra harnesses needed.

Currently driving a 2017 2500HD LT 4x4 DC 6.0

What about DPN to DQS? I miss the power fold feature from my previous truck.

DPN to DQS shouldn't require a harness change. However, I would take caution on this before dropping $ on DQS mirrors. I have about 50 different harness part #s documented and still get an "ah ha" moment every now and then when a new part # shows up. This is also the reason why getting stock harness back under my core program is important.

 

I haven't seen a harness set that did not come with the power fold circuits already present in the harness.

 

If your DPN mirrors have Turn, Cargo, and Park lamps functional, you should be ok.

 

I would like to see pics of the connectors to verify what terminals are present/missing.

 

Feel free to PM me if you want to dig into this further.

 

Thanks!

Thanks Phil. I'd also need the switch assembly and the trim plate for the door. Sounding pretty pricey to get power folding.

Are your DPN Mirrors not power adjust mirrors now? You should already have the trim bezel and buttons to adjust your mirrors. If that's the case, you'll just need a new switch. These are the three different switches out there.

 

If you don't have the switch on the left, them I'm confused as to the mirror you have.

Not a problem sir. It is my pleasure and hope to help as many people here achieve their mirror upgrade desires.

 

Let me know if you need any other help, have questions, or need advise on next steps.

Makes more sense once I saw the pic of the entire trim plate.

I need a switch that is $30 - $50 depending on which one I need and the mirrors.

This is what I cam up with for the mirrors. https://www.gmpartsdirect.com/oem-parts/gm-mirrors-trailering-chrome-23372181/?c=Zz1leHRlcmlvciZzPWFwcGVhcmFuY2UmYT1jaGV2cm9sZXQmbz1zaWx2ZXJhZG8tMjUwMC1oZCZ5PTIwMTcmdD1sdHomZT02LTBsLXY4LWZsZXg%3D

In the description it doesn't mention the features the mirror contains. $565 each! Holly cow! My take offs better be worth something. They are only a month old.
