Tow Mirror Install Help!

rhino2020 · January 27, 2019

I ordered these https://www.ebay.com/itm/Trail-Ridge-Towing-Mirror-Power-Fold-Heat-Memory-Smoke-Signal-OAT-Chrome-for-GM/232440504616?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649

with the hopes of being plug and play but the marker lights and reverse spot light aren't working. The instructions aren't the greatest and wiring isn't my specialty. Has anyone installed these? My truck is a 2014 LTZ, came stock with power fold mirrors, with puddle lights and turn signals in the mirrors. Thanks!

The reverse spot should of came with two wires along the mirror to tap into where you want it. Pretty sure the aftermarket mirrors are only signals as well unless you do the light upgrade from Boost

This is what it came with.

I bought similar mirrors from trail-ridge only function I don’t have is power folding/memory. I didn’t use there wiring, I purchased new wiring harnesses from Pgamboa making it plug and play.

I ran my ground wires to the ground in the door. From there I ran the spots to the cargo lamp fuse on the passenger side and the marker light wire goes to the fuse under the driver side for marker lights.

I like the cargo switch better. I have extra light to the rear when loading stuff in the dark. Besides the lights don’t put out enough light to actually assist in backing up. I’d actually think they’d be annoying. That and I have an opt7 triple under my tailgate that puts out enough light and then some for backing up .

You need to re pin the door harnesses there is a thread on this. And a member Pgamboa can send you full door harnesses or a DIY kit to re pin your own which I did. Everything will work like factory.
