    Thanks! I bought this style of mirrors from Boost Auto in 2019 for my 06 Duramax LBZ, but yesterday, I clipped my passenger-side mirror, breaking my lower mirror and scuffing up the lower chrome cap and switchback lens. The good news is I can purchase all the parts from Boost, and they all pretty much just snap-in! Thanks again for the walk-thru, and take care!

    Dude that looks pretty sick! Definitely on the list of things to do later on. Mostly because my truck isn't lifted enough or has a wide enough stance for it to look good.

    Hi guys, I have the same mirror's on my 2010 Toyota Tundra Crew Max Base, I had to wire everything, but all I did for my switchback to work, I looked for my fuse for tail light and use a fuse (15amp) tap for my truck, my turn signal, I ran a wire straight to left turn signal to left side mirror and right turn signal to the right side mirror from the headlights and I grounded the black wire from each mirror to a hard ground on each side by the doors when you run the wire from the door in to your truck or car and for my reverse light I di run it so in reverse they come on the same way boost auto show, and it took me 15- 25 mins for each side the hard part was running the wire from the door into the truck

    Help...lol..., Quick question on Mirrors, I see you linked the MostPlus power folding mirror on amazon, did you have the top and bottom painted White or is it a different mirror on your truck? Also, the Switch backs will work with the MostPlus mirrors? Btw Great video and the truck looks great with the white and black matching mirrors.

    So my MOSTPLUS mirrors that I bought from Amazon doesn’t have the standard 2 pin for the switch back lights to swap out . They come with a chrome looking switch back turn signal light that is a three pin connectorbehind it. So all in all try to find out what connectors your mirror has before you buy it . I have to stick with what my mirrors came with because of the connector hook up from the mirror to switch back light

    • @__ll7__
      @__ll7__  Před 2 lety

      The pins you have to buy separately the link is in the description on my other video. Switchbacks are also separate link is in description.

      I’m not talking about the door harness pins . I bought those from eBay . I’m talking about the mirror wire connector going to the switch back light . My mirrors came with a 3 pin connector not the universal 2 pin connector to swap out lights like you have in your video @ 3:55

    Clean job! By the way on your DL3 mirrors did it come with the auto dimming like the rear mirror when lights hit it, it dims the driver mirror only? Because I’m wondering if that would matter. Mine has power fold, auto dimming, blinker light, auto adjustable, and the light that turns on underneath when opening the door

    • @__ll7__
      @__ll7__  Před 3 lety +1

      Yes mine had all that including the auto dimming. Doesn’t really matter when switching over to tow mirrors though since they don’t have that option.

      It’s been awhile, I ordered the same tow mirror but as the black option, how did you wire/slice into the wires for the flood light and led blinker.. idk if they fixed it to plug and play because it was completely wired into a plug.. it’s the same part number as described in your description
