Ya that's what I was thinking.  I wonder where we'd start to find the puddle lamps?  I have some tow mirrors now, they have heat and folding, but the only thing they didn't come with was the puddle that I wanted.  I couldn't pass up the price

 

Puddle lamps are 22919741 Left & 22919740 Right, about $20 each

All,   Due to the overwhelming interest in folks wanting to upgrade their mirrors, I wanted to start this thread, hopefully, with all the information pertaining to the process of upgrading y

For those that are curious on the work involved with the harness modification, I've created and uploaded a Time Lapse Video of the process. The original post has been updated and the video link is at

Power fold should already be present on your harnesses. So if you swapped mirrors and now don’t have power fold, then you most likely didn’t install power Folding mirrors.

Do you have part #s to what you installed?

I purchased the 1AMRP011771 mirrors.  I just need to modify the mirror plug like you show in the video.  I can't seem to find the pins that go onto the end of the wires that are installed into the mirror plug to make it plug and play.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I sell this as a Pigtail for $25. Looks like this.

I'm in the process of upgrading the factory full featured power fold mirrors on my 2017 Sierra Denali to the full featured power fold tow mirrors.

I have to say that @pgamboa has been a massive help & I mean massive! The time, quality and effort he has put into his gear is incredible ! Looks and performs as good (if not better) than OEM !

 

Here's a sneak peak:

Ordering my harness is via PM. Since each upgrade is unique, I build these specific to each truck’s year, trim, and mirror you’re getting.

PM me.

For the RZY Jumper harness, I don’t stock those. You can get those anywhere. Part # 23387133 for that.

Thanks,

Phil

I do this on purpose to ensure that we both have the full understanding of the upgrade path :). I’d rather have a ton of questions up front and get it right he first time :). Those door panels are a PITA if you’ve never taken one out before. Nothing sucks more than to do all the work and something doesn’t work, then have to do it all over again. Lol

I am also having problems with my marker lights not coming on when my headlights are on.  The marker lights flash when I use the key fob to unlock my vehicle.  Also the spot lights do not come on.  Any help appreciated.

Did you modify your door harnesses or replace the harnesses with mine to accommodate his mirror? Can you provide details?

Everything went good and smoothed no problem at all. 

Thank you for all your information, videos, pictures they make the installation easy.

Wow this thread is a beast! Can someone give me the current part numbers for wiring harnesses to swap from DL3 to DQS mirrors to have full functionality; or would I need to get these from Phil? I’ve got a 2015 SLT 1500 CC, DL3 mirrors and truck has the seat/mirror memory option.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      Progress... sort of.   Intake is disassembled, spider is out, fuel lines removed. Used a torch on the stripped screw with the lower intake off, much easier when I've got the intake sitting on my workbench, I made it talk. Walked right out with a pair of vice grips once it was nice and toasty hot.   New parts are piling up on my service cart waiting to be installed. Distributor, temperature sensor, new gaskets, fuel line kit, themostat, water neck.   My new pickle is I don't want to spend $600 on a replacement spider. I'm not sure IT is bad. I'm probably splitting hairs. Or it's $300 to send mine away and another 3 weeks of the truck just sitting. I have half a mind to assemble everything with the old spider to see if I can get away with just replacing the fuel pressure regulator to be safe. The obvious issue was the gushing high pressure fuel line which will be replaced. Getting to the spider really isn't that hard, and now I know what I'm doing , swapping it would be a breeze should it absolutely need one. Stupid, or smart?   The part that gives me pause is replacing the distributor. Well, it's already out. And I didn't mark it, whoopsie! Engine was at TDC when I removed it, I know that, so upon correct reinstall the metal tip on the rotor should point to the TDC mark on the distributor because that's where it was pointing on the old distributor. Worst case I'm a tooth off and have to re-stab it.   But then, what? I assume the truck will start. It doesn't appear the timing can be set. Here's the problem: These distributors can't be rotated but a degree or two, by design. What I read is Cam ****** needs to be -2 to +2 degrees, ideally at 0 (and checked/set above 1000 rpm). There should be enough wiggle to get that properly set, but checking the reported value is another potential issue. My Actron 9185 scanner says it supports enhanced GM PIDs and Cam ****** is one of them but it's unclear that I'll be able to correctly see it over OBD 1.5. I can see why people end up junking these things with life left in them. They're an absolute nightmare with tweener-year diagnostics/electronics and unobtanium parts.   Fingers crossed it starts and idles nicely. There can be hope, right? I'ma buy a lottery ticket the same day just in case.   Next steps..DO IT. I have not installed an intake before so I've been reading and watching a lot. Some say NO RTV except on china walls, some say DO RTV on water ports but not fuel/air intake. 1/4 or 3/8 bead on China walls? I think my strategy will be, obviously, RTV china walls with overlap on the gasket corners. Chapstick-style RTV the water ports. Leave intake ports dry. The only set of intake gaskets I could find locally are Edelbrock performance gaskets (uh...for an asthmatic 190hp V6? LOL) so we'll see how they do.   #NoToolLeftBehind. It took an hour, but my recovery mission for my deep 10mm socket was successful. It had rolled down the bellhousing and wedged itself between what I think are the fuel lines? I couldn't see it at all, but with a junk antenna I had laying around, I blindly went poking/sweeping for it, heard it clink, raised the truck, and caught a sliver glimpse of chrome with a flashlight way up there in Narnia. I had pushed it farther along the lines holding it captive, but within access of severely improvised tools, poking and cursing at it to finally knock it free to where I could get a fingertip on it to bring it home.    Not much to see.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      By KARNUT · Posted

      It wouldn’t have happened if the government hadn’t mandated outrageous fuel mileage standards. It does very little for the consumer. It adds cost. Back during Covid there was a chip shortage. They gave a rebate for your truck if it didn’t have the chip to turn on cylinder deactivation. It was 50$ because at best you may see 1/2 a mile increase per gallon. Splitting hairs each fuel mileage trick wasn’t mandated. The government doesn’t do the engineering work and say use this until it’s already in use and they like it. The fuel mileage was mandated. And those add ons the results. There’s a mandate and they are the results.
