Can Manual Mirrors be Replaced by Power Towing Mirrors on 2016 GMC Sierra
Question:
I have a 2016 GMC SERRIA base model , with factory no power mirrors. I bought towing mirrors for it that's made for that model with lights on them. What type of wiring harness will I need and can these mirrors work with this truck?

Expert Reply:
If your 2016 GMC Sierra has manual mirrors there won't be a way for you to utilize the electric functions of the powered towing mirrors # KS62147-48G as the wiring is unlikely to be run inside your door.
You can still replace your factory mirrors with quality towing mirrors though they will be manual mirrors, the K-Source Custom Extendable Towing Mirrors - Manual # KS62137-38G. These mirrors have a large, 11-1/2" tall x 7" wide face, giving you an optimal rear view so you can see more of what is behind you.
I have added a link to video reviews of these mirrors for you to check out as well.
