Backside is flat with rectangle plug which mostly goes to remote mounted module which is where most sensor inputs are, looks like it was made on a 3D printer
No replaceable bulbs must be LED

That's good to know. Maybe less of a wiring cluster-duck than the factory stuff. Was it very pricey?

$795.00 plus freight, one other thing the panel has is a gear shift indicator which solves the problem with 4 speed AT upgrades, also there's a GPS add on,external dimmer,no speedo cable, and other stuff not cheap but getting to the point just want to get this truck done

Finally got the mirrors painted and installed, from a 2005 Traverse( I think that’s how it spelled) chosen because the angle of housing match’s the angle of door just below glass.
Sent out dash bezel to hydromedia shop to cover in “gunstock” pattern there taking there time.Image

Included picture of tail cause I like shiny thingsImage

just around the parking lot, engine runs good brakes and steering feel ok, lots of things won't know if we nailed it till she's on the road i.e. 700
r4 gear ratio vs diff ratio vs tire size, reverse shackles, quick ratio steering gear box, how touchy the hydroboost is,engine temp with Novak radiator,air flow from AC vents,did we position the mirrors so the adjustments range works, lots of mods time will tell! why can't we just leave things alone!!!
