The glass usually has a blue or gold tint to it. The best way would be to call a local dealer with your vin number to see if it came that way from the factory. This glass is for standard mirrors not towing type mirrors. Thanks

Most of the came with autodimmer. When the lights of other driving from behane, hits you mirror glass it dimms so the light won't reflect into your face.

ALL GM trucks from this body style that have the LED turn signal in the glass factory have the auto-dimming glass on the drivers side mirror. The passengers side mirror does not auto dim. You can also tell when you take the glass off, you'll see a wire harness with 4 wires, 2 for the heater, and 2 for the auto dim function. There are also 2 more that plug into small connectors on the back of the glass for the heater. If you see a seller selling one with only 2 wires on the harness, these are the cheaper NON-DIMMING type that were never offered factory on these vehicles. BEWARE of these fakes as they are much cheaper to produce, but you lose the original auto-dimming feature.

I have these on my chevy 2500hd with no issues, I went with an led flasher instead of resistors. It sounds like you might have a short in the wiring or one of the leds.

I would think so, but if you haven't already bought the mirror, CIPA has the model number 36200 which is the Auto-Dimming Mirror with just the compass. CIPA has a good site to look at the available choices.

Yes, I don't know about dimming though, didn't know they had side mirrors that dim. It's fairly easy to install, you will have to remove the side panel to get access the the 3 bolts that hold the mirror on. The electrical is just a quick disconnect.

It's clear like regular Mirror. Look at the part number on your mirror that you are replacing and match off of that. Mine turned out to have dimmer options and there is a difference. Not much but it is noticeable.

I am suspicious of the numbers you give, however you can check the specification from here : http://www.autosock.us/fitting-guidepurchase/dimmensionfitting-guide-auto-2/

I understand the sensor to be auto dimming for the rearview mirror to prevent glare at night. Mine does that and this item works perfectly for it.

Not wanting to look directly into it, I used a mirror from the side to check . All my lights were on, more than ten. I would call the company to see what they say. I've used mine successfully so far. Good luck.

It is a standard aftermarket Double Din unit -- the dimensions of the unit is listed on Amazon website as " 7.2 x 5.2 x 4.4 inches ", no the screen does not dim automatically, but u can manually dim it.

No, it has not. But it can be compensated by the darker reflection. I mean, the OEM mirror may show you an Image with 90% of its real bright, this will be darker, maybe 25% to 30%. It could be a problem in really dark spaces. About glare from other cars during the night, don't worry about that is enough dark for reducing glare as OEM mirror, I think even better. I bought one 3 months ago and I have no glare problems.

Hello Paul, This mirror will fit 2013 Sierra 2500HD and this mirror is power adjustable and heated, but without Auto Dimmer and Signal Light. Thank you.

My RAV4 had an auto dimming mirror but I bought one with Homelink. The wiring harness had two wires running to the mirror for the Auto dimming mirror to work. Had to pick up a 12 v always on lead witch you can find up in the light package above the mirror, for the Home link to work.

I wired mine to the dashboard light circuit, which has a dimmer. I am using the same ground as that circuit as well. Dimming the dashboard lights does dim the LED kit too.

You can go into the settings and change the dimmer settings. Do it while your headlights are turned on, and you'll see a little "Moon" icon show up next to the Dimmer setting. That just means you're changing how the brightness changes when your headlights are on. You can turn the brightness all the way up to the default for when your headlights are on if you want to, that way it doesn't dim. I personally have mine set to dim a little bit, but not as much as the default setting.

Yes, this dimmer dims the lights. However, you need to know that whenever you turn on the lights, they initially come on bright regardless of the setting when lasst turnrd off.
