Hey guys I need some help I have a 2011 ram 2500 it has the standard mirrors power and heated,no chrome no blinkers , I want to upgrade them to the chrome tow mirrors with blinkers. Any idea if this is a simple plug and play or what do I have to do I want every thing to work like original.

Should be just plug and play.


I did the same thing on my Dads 02 truck. It was plug and play. With the exception of the Bluetec system, we are progressing technologically. I cannot even think that it would require you to splice any wiring. But, before you go and spend a bunch of money, pull the driver side door panel and take a peek.

Blake is there a easy way to get that mirror signal light to act as a running light? Thanks in advance.

But what I wonder is will the turn signal work on the new mirrors since my truck didn't come with them from factory

My 2011 2500 didn't come with tow mirrors but I had the dealer put them on (chrome with blinkers) and the blinkers wont work per Ram and the dealer.

Thanks for the info man I wonder if there some chrome ones with out the blinkers or if there's any way to wire them the trucks blinkers

Big Ray

The chrome ones will have the blinkers only. I asked Ram to let the dealer hard wire them and they said no. It's a joke! Ram said they wont never work. Good luck

Well that there wouldnt be an easy mod as in just plug and play. But it could be done. I havent had my new mirrors off yet, and Im not familiar with the wiring offhand. Im certain it can be done, just may involve a good bit of custom work, IE, completely rewiring the blinker off of a relay from the running lights and shooting that power over to the lights in the mirror.
