Tried installing the DL3's today. They wouldn't power fold--either one. So I'm not sure if it's in my switch or not--I don't think it is, but I'm not positive. I thought there was supposed to be 3 plugs coming out of the ds mirror. Also can't get the puddle light out or get it to work. How is it supposed to turn on?View attachment 218602 View attachment 218603 View attachment 218604 View attachment 218605
What does the plug do that's marked "green"?

Does your switch have the feature for the power folding mirrors? The puddle lights come on when you unlock it at night maybe when you lock it too I forget, put some LED’s in there and they will look great, and the green plug is for the heated seat/adjustable pedal switch I’m pretty sure iirc it was a green plug

is your window switch wired for the folding mirrors? like is there more then one window control unit out there?

mines got that fold icon light on it. left right switch needs to be in the very middle, then hit the inside pad to move em in, door side of the pad to push back out. need to hold the pad for about 2 seconds.
Yup, I have the pwr folding switch. I did put that switch in the middle, and the light in the switch did come on.20180608_170221.jpg

I tried getting the puddle light lens out, to make sure the bulb was good--couldn't get those damn things out. One actually started to crack, so I left it alone.
I did get those caps off tho!

Getting the lens out is kinda tricky you just press in on that tab and slowly pop it out, once you do it once you’ll see how easy it is, just use a small screwdriver

That's exactly what I did, but I used my knife. Started to crack in the corner, so I stopped.

My puddle lights broke first time I took them out. Brittle little guys. @ScottyBoy would know more about wiring these specific mirrors.
