Lighted Visor Mirrors?

Curious if you can install a visor with a lighted mirror in a pickup with non-lighted visor mirrors? Is the electric connection in place to accomodate this upgrade?

Thanks in advance.

Interesting request. I can't say I know for sure, but you could always turn on the dome light in the overhead console when you need to look in the mirror. May not be as bright but probably a lot easier than trying to swap out the mirrors.

Yeah... that's much more accurate.

Would be cool if this is just something that will bolt on with the electric plug in there already.

Well crap... called the dealer and they said that there are harnesses that need to be installed along with the lighted visors... it can be done - just more work to install them.

I'm not married so I don't know how much whining you're listening too. But one of my ex's complained about that alot in one of my cars so I went to Walmart and bought a battery operated lighted mirror that clipped on over the visor. That isn't the greatest looking setup but it shut her up. Just an option.

Seems like you could get a battery operated one and take the visore to a upholstry shop and they would install the mirror onto the visor and make it look purty. Just a thought.
