Front pics attached.

If you just hook the mirrors up to the existing harness you will get the mirrors and puddle lamps to work. Full functionality can be done by wiring them up to a switch.

I had these mirrors smoothed and painted ~ 4 years ago. I picked up another set about 6 months ago. I had those sanded, prepped, and color matched. They will get installed when I repaint the truck one of these days when I am done with this travel assignment.

Look good.
So just add the two door switch and it’ll work ?

Depends on what year truck you have. The 99 - 02 silverados will partially function meaning mirror control and active puddle lamps. You will not get turn signals for power fold unless you wire them up independently to a swtch. I cant say for sure about the signals.

If you have an 03-07 NBS model all you have to do is get the switch as you have pictures in the image. From what I recall the BCM controls those funchtins in conjunction with the switch. I have an 02. Thus I cannot speak for those models.

You have the proper powerfold switch on the 2 door panel. The one in the 4 door panel is the non powerfold switch. The powerfold switch actually lights up when you put the left/right toggle switch in the center(the black switch above the power mirror switch)20180608_170212.jpg 20180608_170221.jpg
You can plug your mirror plugs in here--says what color plug goes where--, and your turn signals will work np--20180608_172924.jpg
That's the underside of the master window switch. My powerfold doesn't work, and I haven't had time to figure out why. Iirc, @Sam Harris actually helped me out and sent me a wiring diagram for it. Hopefully he'll chime in.
Just for the hell of it---I popped the mirror off and this is the led for the turn signal.20190511_135519.jpg 20190511_140430.jpg
