Has anyone actually tried to exchange tow for standard or standard for tow mirrors? I will have the tow mirrors, but I don't really like them, as I think they are too big. (That's the disadvantage to taking dealer stock-you get stuck with some things you didn't really want to get the things that you really did want.)
The main difference being the power fold on the standard mirrors vs. no power fold on the tow mirrors. (I am specifically talking about Laramie Limited.) On ebay there are a few of the standard Laramie mirrors (turn signal, puddle lamp, heated, power fold, auto dim) and they seem to have a 12-pin connector. I didn't see any tow mirrors to compare plugs.
I can certainly can do without the power fold, but they probably don't fold manually (for car wash) without breaking the mechanism without having the control switch. Will it throw a code for having the wrong mirror connected (assuming that the plugs are the same)?
Please let me know if you have any experiences related to exchanging them. BTW-used mirrors are around $200-$250 for standard Laramie mirrors with power fold.
