Towing Mirrors to replace DL8 (Sierra SLE)


Recommended Posts

I've been reading a lot and watching video on how to install towing mirrors on a 2017 Sierra 1500. One answer that I was not able to find was the following.

Instead of going with replacing the full harness, not connecting the turn signals and running lights of the mirrors to the front signal lights?

As for the LEDS, they could get directly hooked up to the cargo reverse lights.

Basically, the tow mirrors that I have purchased has the option to hot wire the mirrors for signal, position and LED's. So I was wondering if it would work if I connect the signal lights in the mirrors directly to the wiring harness of each front signal lights (signal lights and position lights)

Is your sierra stock or lifted and bigger tires?

Reason is: I was 100% sure i was going tow mirrors until i saw a stock 1500 with them on and it looked like Dumbo's ears from the back lol

They just didnt look right. If you are lifted and bigger tires then they do look nice, like the 2500s.

 

Seeing it in person changed my mind and im leveled with 33s..

 

But you should be able to wire it however as long as you get power to them to do the function it needs to do.
