VIN matches the RPO sticker so I guess someone swapped in the incorrect switch assembly at some point, not all that surprising. Ill be ordering the correct one AND a set of mirrors then.

Thanks for the help fellas!
You might have the correct mirrors, but just the wrong switch. How many plugs does the mirror have? All of them plug into the master switch--underneath the window switches.20180608_164456.jpg20180608_165744.jpg

Being an '03, be sure to pull the door panel to remove the switch. There should be a screw underneath it to capture the bezel it's clipped into. Don't try to pry it up from the top or you'll break the bezel off of the screw post. Don't ask me how I know.

Yup, forgot about that. Been there, done that too.Screenshot_20210808-143412_Gallery.jpgScreenshot_20210808-143422_Gallery.jpg
See the broken nub in the upper part?

my 03 Silverado had power fold and led mirrors and the drivers door switch did not light up, you just put the left/right selector in the center and press the big button up or down.

Was it original or swapped before you got it?

Or left or right to fold.
