Default Mirror Swap

My mirrors are the standard ones and I would like to swap them out for tow mirrors. I have spot, power, heat, puddle, turn, blind spot and power fold. I want to replace them and the controls with the following. Will this setup work, so that I will also have power telescoping mirrors?
Thanks

if your truck has the 8 pin mirror wiring harness connector than yes it will work. if its 22 pin, you can get an adapter for it.

I made a similar swap a few months ago. I have not upgraded the switch to have telescope, but I will soon enough. A1 was/is ****ty. Since the mirrors I bought from them did not EXACTLY match the truck options (mirror memory) they would not warranty a manufacture defect. I would not recommend them, in fact, they told me they would not warranty the mirrors and tried to sell me more mirrors. Weak.

So I'm going to pull the triggers on these, from the research I've done this set up should work. I will post again once I install them along with the new switch.

Good find on these. I’m also looking for the exact same thing but mine is for a 16. Interestingly the link you gave says it’s for an 18 but when I scrolled down it says it also works on 15-17. Now when I do a search for the 16’s the price comes up double. Please follow up with your thoughts on these once you get them if you don’t mind. I may also pull the trigger on a set if I can’t find a set of OEM. Thanks!

Yes, they should fit your truck also.
For me OEM's are just way to expensive, I'm excited to get these. I'm sure by swapping out the switch everything should work. The only thing I don't have now as an option is the power telescoping, but with the new switch I should be good to go.

No I haven't, but I'll check now that you mentioned it.

I looked at the Boost mirrors, For less the telescoping option and way more money, I don't think I'll go with Boost mirrors, $322.00 more.
Also found this, I will be needing this to add to the passenger side mirror. AAT Sensor
