Well here it is. The first documented pics of k2xx tow mirrors on a gmt800 truck. They are power, heated, turn signal and reverse lights.

Yeah I love them too.

As to the wiring, I got it mostly figured out. The wire that was supposed to be for the front amber clearance lights was the reverse wire.

So instead of having clearance lights on the front of the mirror I have turn signals. I did not locate the right wire on the truck for the reverse lights to work, but it's al ready to solder once I find it.

They do, but as turn signals only. For now anyway. I might make them into both clearance lights and turn signals eventually.

So basically I have the signals in the glass and the front as of now.
I just installed my brothers last night but wanted to make the amber running/turn signal but the bad part is that the red arrow and Amber light are on the same circuit.

Here's some more pics.
Oh, and if anyone is wonder how sturdy they are. They feel like stock. They don't have any wiggle in them and the slide to extend them is nice and firm. I haven't driven over 40mph yet, so I can't say if they shake or not at highway speed, but judging by how strong they feel, I'd guess they won't shake at all.

I'll take a few now. It will be better once I hook up the reverse lights.

I thought about color matching the black part, but I sort of like the black.

I was also kind of torn on the chrome when I was ordering, since they have all black ones too, but my stick mirrors were chrome as well so I just stuck with it
