Do the K-Source Custom Extendable Towing Mirrors Install the Same as the Factory Mirrors

Question:

Will the K-Source Custom Towing Mirrors Plug In to theFactory Electrical Connection on my 2003 Silverado 2500 hd? The current mirrors have power adjustment, turn signals, and heating. They are also power extending, the kind that look like accordian arms.

The K-Source Custom Extendable Towing Mirrors # KS62075-76G that you referenced will install exactly like factory mirrors do and will use the same electrical connectors as your factory mirrors. It would be just a matter of plugging them into factory connections and it would retain the power adjustability, heat function and turn signals that your factory mirrors have. These mirrors do not power in and out though, you would need to manually push them in and out to extend and unextend them.

There is no power for either telescoping the arms in or out or for folding the mirrors in. The features that are powered are the defrost heating, turn signals and the adjustment of the angle of the mirror glass. You would have to manually telescope the mirror or fold it in against the truck.
