Adding power mirrors to a NNBS W/T
I have a 2007.5 NNBS Silverado W/T. I bought the turn signal/heated mirrors figuring they would be plug and play but I was wrong.
I went and installed them tonight and found out there is no plugs in the door panels for these to plug into
I have read and searched with not much luck. Is there a way to make these work or no? Any and all help would be appreciated. Thank you!

There is a thread that specifically describes the very complicated method of adding the power fold into a truck that was not wired for them. I think it's a sticky somewhere.
Alternatively, you can just slap them on and wire the power fold wires to a new switch that you install in the dash, powered by a 12v source. This was the method I used and it works great. Just get a good switch because the GM power fold motors will burn up if you leave power applied for too long, like if your switch gets stuck for 6 hours like mine did... Expensive mistake.

Thanks I appreciate the help and responses. I have read the power fold thread and have no interest in that part. I just wanted the signal and heat to work. I read a thread a while back and it seemed like plug and play is why I bought them but of course I cant find the thread anywhere.

I'd also be interested in the PW/PDL help if you know of any. A couple of the threads started but were never finished so any help with that would be great to.Thanks again.

does anyone have a site for the electrical diagrams for these trucks?? I think it may be easier just to hard wire them and be done if I can figure out the colors codes for the wires.
Thanks again.
Thanks again.

I guess I misunderstood, I thought you wanted power fold. I am actually not sure exactly what you are trying to accomplish.
I don't have a wiring diagram but I wired my puddle lights to 12V with a relay that was controlled by the dome light signal and the power fold to a constant 12V source so I could cycle them at anytime. Maybe you'll find the following threads helpful... if not, I tried!
Wiring to RAP
Interior Light Circuit
Fix Buzzing Relay due to Voltage Fade
Again, not sure which mirror model # you have, but on mine the power fold was a light blue wire and a yellow wire, and the puddle lights were (2) orange wires with a solid white stripe. All of these terminated into a white plug on the mirror.
