Def a cool product...but i gotta ask...how difficult is it to retrofit the turn signals into the mirrors? Or could i just buy some used ones with the turn signals in them and they will be plug and play?

It can be done, if you have the patience to thread a small pair of wires through the mirror and run them with the mirror control wires. I did this on my first set, then when I found a set with signals, I swapped them out & I put the original set on my Wife's TB. Plug and play if prewired....yesDarkrider_LS said:
Yes, they are plug and play, no hyperflash and no resistors required, just pull the OEM bulb & reflector and install the LED Insert.jeffro312 said:
I will be interested later this year, need to pay off some bills and I have about 6 payments left on the truck. I also need to get the upgraded mirrors or mod mine. These do look pretty freaking sweet, would go nice with the rest of my LED lighting.

Lol, well after I pay the truck off, and the wedding next May, everything will be fair game. First will be to find a chap beater. Then its maintenance as I have been a bad owner lately, then lift an whatever else I can whip up.
These will be bought and sit on shelf until I can get to that point.

I got mine on ebay @ $117 shipped for both and they had the clear lenses and heated glass. The quality is a bit lower than OEM but they are ok. And they where plug and play.. Even at cost+10% the lenses alone cost more so I went this way.
Just a quick bump here.
I don't have the LED inserts from TX Blazer. BUT....I have the dual taillight mod. He did that for me over 5 years ago, and it STILL works like a champ.
He does quality work and you should have nothing but confidence when dealing with him!

I had TXBlazer make them when we were on the "old site". Basically it makes all 4 bulbs be on when the parking lights are on. Brake lights and turn signals still function normally. Not sure if he is still making them or not. Here's a video:

It also makes the reverse lights use both filaments in the bulb, and not just one.

Nice! So basically it makes full use of all the available lights to increase visibility?
Darkrider_LS said:
Correct. And it makes other TB owners wonder why their truck isn't as cool, LOL
Actually, most people probably won't notice, as it seems completely factory (and in my opinion, this is how it SHOULD have been from the factory).
Only people that really know cars will know you had something modified. And once in a while, they will ask about it. Still happens to be every so often.

Just asking for clarification. Are most gmt360s prewired for the turnsignal mirrors....meaning the factory plugs In the doors already have wires in them to connect the stock turnsignal style mirrors? Either way im interested in adding these modules, was just thinking of picking up some used mirrors with signals on them off of ebay and retrofitting them when I have spare time then installing them after. That way my tb is not down too long while I do the upgrade. On a side note...would these modules hold up to being connected to a strobe setup? Reason I ask this I may opt to use them as strobes on my stock mirrors instead of doing the above.

Thanks for the confirmation, same goes with the wiring for heated mirrors? Im guessing if they are the heated mirrors are controlled by the rear window defrost switch?
TXBlazer said:
Awesome! Looks like i will be buying some turn signal/heated mirrors soon! Will see what i can do on monday...might be able to order an LED module then in preparation for that upgrade.

Just a few pics from a set I did that were Amber Front / Red Rear
The contrast between the red and amber didn't show up to well in the pics
And a quick video:
