Default 07 tahoe chrome mirror covers

Just received my mirror covers for my 07 ltz do they stick right on the existing painted mirror covers or do they need to be removed?

It depends on what type you bought. Dealer ones you need to remove the old ones.

hmm, i have the same covers. They cheap and also looks cheap. Just clean mirror with rubbing alcohol, peal of 3M red protective strip and glue them over the existing mirror covers.

Are they the ones by Putco? I have those and they cover the entire mirror housing. Just make sure you clean real well per the instructions. One guy on another forum didn't and lost one of them.

OEM replacements. My door handles and mirrors were black when I bought the truck.
