2015 Yukon to Escalade mirror swap, general mirror question too...

[Kelleytechh]

So first off from what I have read DL3 mirrors are the premium Tahoe/Yukon mirror power-folding, heated etc. The DL8 are more basic. I will add info I found at the end for reference.

I have a 2015 Yukon SLT with DL3 mirrors. I would like to upgrade to Escalade mirrors simply for the bigger mirror. There is a lot of info on going basic mirror (DL8) to Escalade but haven't seen much on the DL3 upgrade. Are there switch issues or wiring issues? Is there a code for Escalade mirrors i.e. DL3/8 for different options? Thanks in advance all!

reference info:

Mirror Types:

DE2 Mirrors - These are the basic mirrors found on W/T Trucks. They do not have power anything. They are manual adjust, manual fold, etc.

DL8 Mirrors – These are the most common mirrors found on LT/SLE trucks and are the next level from DE2 Mirrors. DL8 Mirrors are Heated, Power Adjust, and Manual Fold. If your truck has 1LT/2LT options, this will most likely be the same mirror.

DL3 Mirrors – These are mirrors are the “Premium” version to the DL8 Mirrors that most folks are wanting to upgrade to. These mirrors are typically found on your higher trim LTZ/High Country and SLT/Denali trucks. These mirrors are: Heated, Power Adjust, Power Fold, Turn Signal, Puddle Lamps, and Auto Dim (Driver’s Side).

Towing Mirrors – These mirrors are the larger mirrors designed to help with towing. These mirrors can be found as options in some 2500/3500 Heavy Duty Trucks. They come in (2) main flavors.

• DPN – These are Manually Folding, Manually Extending, Heated, Turn Signal, Cargo (also referred to as Courtesy Lamps), and Clearance Lamps (also referred to as Park/Running Lamps)
• DQS – These are essentially the same as DPN except they are Power Folding and supports Mirror Memory if your truck has this feature.

Plug and play. I’ve done this on 3 vehicles. Bought all mirrors from eBay. Read the specs carefully. Some will have no puddle, no blindside or the language NOT English. Sometimes you get B lucky with cover colors too.
