So over a year later I'm going to attempt to resurrect this thread once again. Just picked up another 19 tahoe LS midnight edition. My second. Had one a few years back and sold it regrettably. So now that I've got a new one I've decided to jump in and do all the mods. Agree with everyone that the stock mirrors have to go, looking at the esky mirrors for sure but wondering if I should get the loaded options ones or not. I've read here that there is a way to get the puddle lights, turn signals, fold and camera working through the harnesses that you evil geniuses can throw together but I'm curious about the blind spot warning. LS midnight is pretty dumbed down it has the parking sensors in the back are those what is used for the blind spot or are they different sensors that aren't present?
Also, does it matter the year of the esky mirror? Will anything 15-20 work with the 19 tahoe? Thanks.

Blind spot uses a sensor that is located in the extreme end of the rear bumper on both sides. No need for sensors there without associated mirrors, so I’m betting you don’t have them.

Alrighty. Then I'll skip the blind spot mirrors and go for the puddle lights and cameras. Most that I've seen on eBay are one or the other anyway. Any idea if 15-20 are all compatible? Thanks for the info, appreciate it!

They will bolt up, cameras are not going to be functional with the stock av components. Puddle lights can always be rigged to light with interior worse case.

I swear some of y'all must have the most epic beer breaks. 2-3 hours for this??? 36 minutes start to finish, including finding tools and putting them away. BTW, 7 mm, and a 9 or 10 i think, didn't look that close. Pick hole behind the door latch to access that screw is well hidden under the latch, open it, and it's in that bottom corner. the handle trim piece the pick hole is easily spotted. Huge difference in visibility, Esky mirrors are nearly twice as tall as the std mirrors

Anyone know if the mud flap/splash guards are compatible between the 2 as well? I’d like to upgrade those as well. The mirror swap is a must for me at this point. Looks great and not just pretty for no reason. I don’t toe but the extra vision is nice for the old eyes.

Having just recently put Escalade mirrors on my Denali and then driving the GFs 2014 Sierra I'm wondering if I wouldn't vastly prefer the truck mirrors. They aren't all that much taller than the stock yukon mirrors but they see a LOT more especially horizontally. The Escalade mirrors give you a much bigger surface to view a much closer area compared to the truck mirrors.

Has anyone done the truck mirror swap yet?

Truck mirrors from a 14 on a K2XX?
You might need some super glue and a hammer.
