So tempted to do this upgrade. I really like the 1A Auto mirrors, all except the layout of the turn signal/running light design. If they had same design as OEM and turn signal in glass, I'd be buying them today

Well done, that's the detail I appreciate in a product review/comparison. Second to none!

are these mirrors both heated? and i've read a review with the aftermarket mirrors, when you extend them there isn't a stop and you can pull them right off. is that true with this brand?

Hi Phil great work. I just purchased a 2018 2500hd work truck with the little basic mirrors and want to add these 1a auto mirrors with all the extra functions. Whats your website where i can purchase adapters? Do you sell the light there too?

Do you have a video of how you modified the front facing LEDs to be both running and turn signals?

I have a question about the wiring, I bought a set of those exact power folding mirrors from 1A Auto to replace my factor powerfolding mirrors on a 2016 GMC Sierra SLT. In order to get the reverse lamps in the mirror to work as well as the amber running light, which pin wires need to be moved around?? Thank You

Phil, I am looking at upgrading from the smaller OEM mirror to the 1aauto towing mirror. My current mirrors have heated glass, power glass, power folding, chevron turn signals, memory, reverse tilt, and puddle lamp. I don’t care if the cargo light feature on the towing mirror works. Do I need to rewire anything or am I good to go for plug and play. Also, my local garage told me the power fold gear on aftermarket is plastic vs. metal for OEM so the can be damaged easy if you move them by hand.

Question. Can the puddle lamp on the A1 Auto mirror be transferred to the GM mirror? My LTZ already has the puddle lamp and I really like the option

Thanks for info: I have 2015 Silverado LT. No power options,except the mirror adjustment. Up/down/ side to side. Will I be able to install A1 -Auto mirrors with all these other options on my truck. Will new harness fit original GM harness. Does GM harness already have power to run these other options on yours, that my original mirrors don't have? Thanks ,Steve.

Hi Phil, I have a 2015 Chevy Silverado Dbl Cab 4.3 V6 LT I’d like to retrofit my mirrors to these A1 aftermarket w/pwr fold, puddle lamp, and blackcap set. Do you know what part numbers or mods I’d need to have this accomplished?

Excellent review! Very nicely done. I have a quick question for you. I have a 2016 Silverado LTZ, and my current mirrors have the following features: power adjust, power folding, heated, integrated turn signal, tilt in reverse, and a puddle lamp. Since my existing mirrors have all of these features and the truck itself has support for them, will there need to be any wiring changes? Or, would these mirrors be truly plug-n-play for me? Thanks!

Also the mirror with a puddle light where did you get that one from and the nicer LED Amber turn signals

Hey Phil, I have a 15 Silverado and would like to buy the most cost effective chrome capped, orange lens, non-power fold mirrors that will be plug and play with your harness. Do you know what one I can purchase? On a side note any update on your stock for your plug and play GM wireless charging module upgrade? Thanks

I am trying to hook up folding mirrors on my 2016 silverado wt 5.3 4x4 do you sell the wire harness for that I have the mirrors and the required power switch but just can't seem to get it to work

I have the same truck as you but mine is a LTZ is the wiring u did for your mirrors the same as mine? I was hoping to get the same mirrors from 1A auto and just plug and play but i see you have to modify the harness?

I have 2018 Chev Silverado 1500 with stock mirrors with only defrost and power mirror. I got a set of a aftermarket tow mirrors. Is there any way I can rewire the new mirror input wire harness which plugs into a truck mirror harness which leads to the truck wire harness to get the front facing light, turn signal in the glass and the clearance light to work?

I have a 2018 Silverado z71 LT and would like to install a pair or towing mirrors. Could you provide me with a link to the best options available? Also what do you charge for correcting the wiring issue?

Hey Phil I was recommended to get in touch with you about purchasing mirrors and possibly getting them wired up by you as well?

Hello Phil. I have a 2015 GMC Sierra and looking to upgrade to the a1auto tow mirrors. I would like to get the plug n play harness from u and get the chrome plated mirrors, but not sure exactly what I would need. If I could help it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hey Phil I'm considering putting tow mirrors on my 2016 Silverado 1500 LT and I've found some mirrors on carid.com by Spec-D tuning thats heated and power adjustable with side markers. Whats your opinion on those mirrors over the 1A Auto mirrors?

@philgamboa2906

6 жыл бұрын

Mike Jorden - I haven’t seen them first hand. I’ve only had my hands on OEM, 1A Auto/AM Auto, and Syppo. In fact, I have a list of “Mirrors to stay away from” and a couple of models are from Carid. “Torxe” is one that I know for sure. Don’t recall Spec-D. Many of those mirror makers source the mirros from the same place. So the $200 and less sets are the ones that are the most problematic. Mostly incorrectly wired internally.

Since you probably know about my question: I'm looking at buying a 2014 Sierra SLT with the folding mirrors. If I buy either the GM o r 3rd party with folding they should work like factory correct?

@philgamboa2906

6 жыл бұрын

Not necessarily. For 2014 and early 2015, GM didn't land the tow mirror lighting circuits (specifically the cargo light and running light) at the door jamb - cabin side. So if you upgrade to tow mirrors, there will be additional work you'll have to do to get the tow mirrors to function correctly. Check out my other videos and look at RZY - Jumper Harness Part #23387133.

How did you get the ltz/High Country taillights on there, are they plug and play or custom wiring?

I have a video for this. GM didn't land the tow mirror light circuits to your door jamb, on the cabin side of the connector. Thanks GM. LOL. Specifically, the cargo lamp and running lamp circuits will be missing. So...if you are comfortable with installing that jumper harness, you can achieve this upgrade.

Your knowledge on wiring and these lights are great. Any chance you could make your custom harness for the A1 Auto mirrors for a tundra. I read and did some digging and found that you cant use the factory power fold. It has a separate wire and switch that has to be installed. Also I was hoping that the rear spot lights on the mirror would be plug and play but they are not. It sucks to have a platinum tundra with factory power fold and yet it isnt compatible with these mirrors.

Jeff, I've done this upgrade over 200 times, helping over 300 members on the GM Trucks Forum. You can most certainly upgrade to these mirrors from 1A Auto. They are and have been in a Sold Out situation for about 2-3 weeks now. In order for this particular set to be Plug and Play, they will need to come to me first. I then fix them up and build a harness set so that when it gets to you, they will be Plug and Play. All you need to do is replace the harnesses with mine, and swap the mirrors. You'll retain power fold, power adjust, heat, turn signal, reverse tilt (if equipped, and memory (if equipped). You will lost auto dimming on the driver side. No tow mirror has driver side dimming. You'll gain the amber park lamps, and white LED cargo lights (spot lights that shine rearward). I provide all this as a service, but mirrors are out of stock at the moment. Let me know if I can help. Sorry for the delay in response. I must have missed the reply.

There is in a way. I put boost auto tow mirrors onto my sierra. Originally went with the smoke lens for the front with white running lights and amber turn signal. Swapped that out for their clear lens(which is more of a frosted lens). They put out so much more usable light then the smoked lens.

Phil, I have a 2015 Silverado 1500 LTZ and want to change to the 1A Auto mirrors. I am concerned about the custom harnesses. Any recommendations? Can I buy them through you? You also mentioned that there are places to use chrome on the housing. Can you give me a referral for the Chrome? Great video. Thank you. Oh, also how much extension do you get on the mirror when extended fully?

Ray Johns - Since you’re a 2015, you’ll have to determine if your truck is an early 2015 or a mid year (MY2015) 2015.5. This will tell us whether GM landed the tow mirror light circuits or not to your door jamb. Send me an email at gamboaphil@gmail.com for more info. I’ll let you know what I need to verify.

Great video as always! I purchased aftermarket towing mirrors for my 2017 Silverado and the glass vibrating at highway speed made me want to go to my dealer and purchase the OEM towing mirrors to get rid of the vibration. After viewing this video, I'm not sure what to do anymore. Did anyone ever come up with a solution to reduce or help with the vibration of the upper glass?

@philgamboa2906

Pierre-Michael Cote - Not that I am aware of. It seems that the upper glass vibration across all mirrors are very similar and are an inherent issue since you have a much larger surface area.

I have a 2015 sierra denali with power fold mirrors. i'd like tow mirrors with the trailer LEDs and to keep power fold. which mirrors do i need?

@philgamboa2906

1A Auto/AM Auto has 2 models of power folding mirrors. Non-Mirror Memory and Mirror Memory. You can use either one. If you don't have seat memory now, you won't be able to gain that. The difference between seat memory model and non, is that the mirror memory model has a bonus puddle lamp that shines down.

I have a 2016 2500HD High Country with mirrors that have auto folding and puddle lights. Will this light plug and play for my truck?

The Denali has power folding mirrors so would there be a error message since these are not power folding? www.1aauto.com/chevy-gmc-mirror-set-trail-ridge-tr00393/i/1amrp01964?f=1154239&y=2017

Enjoyed the video, OEM is the way to go, Its called after market for a reason, You get what you pay for, Where are these mirrors made? I have been buying truck parts for over 40 years and the OEM is more money but usually worth it..

You can find a set for your truck. The power mirrors will be plug and play, but if you don't have heated mirrors, you'll have to wire them yourself. You'll also have to wire the turn signals, running lights and reverse lights yourself as well. There are forums that will help you figure out what wires to tap in to. It's not hard to do. I installed a set of aftermarket mirrors on my 14 Silverado that doesn't have the factory plug for the turn signals in the glass or anything else. I had to wire it myself. For me, I had to connect eight wires, four wires per mirror. Two of the eight wires are just ground wires so they're super easy.

Bart Jeffcoat I almost forgot.. to have the running lights work as dual function... running light and turn sjgnal... you would need to do a little extra wiring with the mirrors. I had to install resistors and diodes behind the top glass. It might seem like a lot of work, but it's not that bad. I did see that there was a little kit so I wouldn't have to cut and solder the mirror wires, but I saw that after I had already modified them. It was just a little kit that had the resistors and diodes already inside a little box and just made the install cleaner. Check the forums, silveradosierra.com is where I got information plus other KZread videos. I had to connect two wires for turn signals, one wire per side, two wires for the running lights, one wire per side and two wires for the reverse lights, one wire per side. That's 6 of your 8 wires. Your other two are ground wires.

Great video Phil!! I have a 2018 LTZ with the regular (small) mirrors with power fold and puddle light, and I am thinking about this upgrade. Do I still need your special harness since I already have puddle light and power fold? Thanks

Even though you have some of the features, it is not plug and play. The cargo light will not work since the existing harness will have one of the dimming circuits using the same slot as the cargo light. Also, the running lamp will be using the puddle lamp circuit and it won't work right either. The running lamp will behave like a puddle lamp and will only come on at night when you unlock the doors, instead of a true running light that is on all the time your headlights are on.

Diesel Your harness actually doesn’t. It only has Turn Signals and Puddle lamps. It does not have the cargo lamps. Also, the running Lamp and the Puddle Lamp slot share the same slot but terminate in different positions at the door jamb. That’s why it has to be separated and made custom. This requires a customization of your Factory harnesses or a completed custom harness by me.
