'Need auto-dimming side mirror on 12 Silverado LT ZR1

[TheBigOldDog]

I've searched and searched and haven't found an answer and hope somebody here can help.

 

I have a '12 Silverado LT ZR1 All Star. It came with DL* mirrors. I upgraded to remote folding side view mirrors using my own dash mounted switch. They don't have the directionals or puddle lights.

 

I upgraded my rearview mirror to an auto-dimming one and it was plug-and-play and has made a big difference to highway night driving which I do frequently. 

 

When being passed on the left often I am being blinded by the bright lights people use these days bouncing off the side view mirror into my eyes.

 

So, I would like to update the driver's side side view mirror to one that will auto-dim or, at least allow me to flip a switch at night to dim the mirror.

 

Can anyone tell me how to do this? Can I just energize certain pins on one of the 2 mirror connectors through a dash mounted switch or is there a way to make it auto-dim? I'd be willing to move up to the full DL3 mirrors but if I am going to do that I'd like to know what I'd have to do to make everything work. 

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've wasted so much time trying to even find the pinouts on the connectors that I've considered giving up and tinting the mirror permanently as a last resort. It's better than folding the mirrors in which I have actually been forced to do a few times. Dark highways, bright headlights and people running with their high beams on have left me no choice at times.
