It should.....they all come with DL8s, so upgrading to the DL3 uses the same methods described in this thread. The only function that won't work is the park/tilt because it shares the memory module for the 8 way power seats only present in the LT3 &LTZ(which from what people tell me is a little used function anyway)

 

Thank you very much... I want to get it now...What is the cheapest place to get the mirrors and switch brand new....?

 

Ebay is always cheapest, but then you never know what you are going to end up with & when you will finally locate it. I'd go new for any OEM upgrade stuff - at least you have the mfr's warranty & none of these parts are exactly cheap! I got all my parts for this upgrade from GMpartsdirect.com, but there are probably other online sources as well - might even try to hit up your dealer for a discount close to online pricing- they seem to mark up everything 50>100% anyway

 

I will probably go for the factory new ones.

 

I went ahead and ordered the mirrors.....Thanks for the advice and I hope my dealer can do the programming.

 

I went to my local dealer today to have the mirrors installed per the instructions given here....and the tech said they cannot do the re-program, the tech said the dealership did not let him program the mirrors if the truck did not come with them.

Who knows of a shop near Orange County , CA that can do the programming ? Maybe GM Geek can ?

Let me know....Lbckevin@hotmail.com

 

any ideas on shops that can do this....?

 

Here is my suggestion, as I initially had the same reaction from my dealer when I asked if they could installDL3 mirrors.

Install the mirrors yourself, there is nothing to it.

Go to another dealer and schedule a session with their Tech2 maestro. Do not tell them you are converting mirrors - simply tell them that you need the technician to flash the DDM & PDM - "because it is not working". They can then write a simple service order for tech2 programming (not mirror conversion) & will probably charge you for an hour.

GM gives dealers instructions not to support conversion of OEM options - My dealer initially called the GM help line & they were told not to do it - they handed the phone to me & I even had the GM representative on the phone flat out lie to me telling me that if they converted the mirrors they could burn up the wiring harness (BS - as the mirrors direct connect to the modules, not a wiring harness).

Flashing the modules should take no more than 15 minutes.

 

Thanks for the info....I knew there might be a better way to do it with the dealer. I apreciate your answers....

 

Let us know if this newapproach is successful. I'm planning to do this upgrade in the near future...
