Default 07 Suburban Mirror swap

I replaced my non-turn signal mirrors with auto folding turn signal mirrors with puddle light and self dimming. I also replaced the drivers side switch. Drivers side mirror works great, all options function properly. The passengers side mirror's options don't all work. I found that the only the turn signal and mirror adjustments work. The puddle light and folding options don't work. My dash options recognized the new mirrors for the reverse tilt function, and it only works on the drivers side.
Is there programming needed for the passenger side to work? The mirror works, I plugged it into the drivers side switch. Anyone have any experience with this?

Thanks

What model? I had to to replace the passenger door switch along with the driver's side door switch on my LS. Because my LS did not come with those options, both of the switches had to be flashed.

Once flashed, everything worked.

Are they GM or aftermarket pieces?

If aftermarket could you provide a link?

Could you guys explain what is required to do this swap?

I'd like to get those mirrors for my '07 Tahoe LT2, thanks.

Welcome to the forum.

I think you can replace just the mirror glass but don't think you can get from GM. Seem to recall in some forum, possibly this one, where someone detailed how they did it.
