New question. When did the power folding mirrors start? My 2002 does not have it but my 2005 does.

Does anyone know if the power fold mirror set can be swapped in to a 2002 without them?

started in 2003 as far as swapping into to a older truck I am not sure, you might need both the door switches and the complete harness from a later truck with power fold, in which case you might also need the whole door panel as well because they changed everything in 03, adding just the blinker function is easy though by running a single wire to each mirror from the bcm and grounding the other end.

I don't think door panels are different, just the bezels with I THINK is swappable between panels. There's a few yt videos showing the swap. I added this to my 03, but for some odd reason I can't get it to work. Once you get the proper mirror switch(master switch)everything plugs into the master switch. When I was trying to do this @Sam Harris sent me some wiring diagrams for the mirrors.20200918_215230.jpg 20200918_215115.jpg 20200918_215212.jpg

I think it has to be programmed into your BCM, once everything is wired. @PNW VietVet Does your 2005 have RPO code DL3?
doesn't have to be programmed
my previous point was the 00-02 door switches are different, they will not fit, they changed them inside and out, the 03+ switches wont go on a 00-02 door panel, therefore you would have to change the door panel also
