Video Transcript for Review of K Source Replacement Mirrors - Replacement Passenger Mirror - KS62151G

Hi there, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Today, we're gonna take a quick look at this K-Source Replacement Side View Mirror. This is going to be a direct replacement for the passenger-side factory mirror on the 2007 through 2013 Cadillac Escalade and Chevrolet Avalanche, as well as the 2007 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra with the new body, the 2008 through 2013 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 2500 and 3500, as well as the 2007 through 2014 Chevrolet Suburban and GMC Yukon and Yukon XL. So if you have any of those vehicles, this is going to be a fit for you. This will replace that factory passenger-side mirror. It is modeled after your vehicle's original look and fit, so you really shouldn't be able to tell that it's a replacement mirror.

It should look like it came with your vehicle right from the factory. You can paint this back cover here to match your vehicle for even more integrated look. And because it is using the same footprint and mounting points as the original, you're not gonna have to do any drilling. It's gonna be a very simple installation. Basically, just remove your original, put this one in its place.

It's got the same power hookups, electrical wiring, so it's gonna be very easy to get this put in place of the original. Just like the original, this is going to have that power remote capability, so you can adjust the mirror face position with the factory power controls inside your vehicle. It's also going to have the heated mirror glass, so it's gonna help clear frost and ice and reduce fogging. You can see it does have this red LED arrow in the mirror face. It's gonna light up when the turn signal is activated.

It also has the power folding that's going to allow you to fold the mirror end using controls inside your vehicle. The mirror will also fold in when struck to help deter breakage. So if you're to run into a parking post or the side of your garage or something like that, it's gonna help absorb some of that impact. And it does also have the memory function so that your car's computer recognition can set the mirror at your preferred position. Now, keep in mind, all those capabilities, the power remote, the heated glass, the LED turn signal, and the power folding and memory functions are only going to work if your vehicle already has those functions.

It's not going to add those capabilities to a vehicle that doesn't have them already. This mirror does not have the puddle lamp. So if you have the puddle lamp on your current one or the one that has become damaged, this is not going to be, won't have that capability. It does not support the auto-dimming function either. So if you have those capabilities, it won't be exactly the same as the original, but you'll still get the majority of those capabilities with this replacement. So this is going to be an OE-grade quality mirror. So you're gonna have the front of the glass plated with a reflective chrome, so you get a nice, clear image. It is a convex lens like most your passenger-side mirrors are these days to give you a nice, wide angle view, to help reduce your blind spots, to make sure that you can see what's coming up behind you, that sort of thing. This does have a nice, durable plastic housing with a textured finish here, these parts. So it is going to be a really nice replacement for you. If you need a little bit more reassurance that this is going to work for you, this is going to replace the original equipment number that you see on the screen there. So if you go through your owner's manual or when you pull off the original mirror, if you see that number anywhere, you can trust this is gonna be exactly what you need. This is just the passenger-side mirror. If you're also needing the driver side, we also have that available here at etrailer.com. You can find it using that part number that you see on the screen there. That's gonna complete our look for today. Again, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Thanks for watching..
