Complete 89-91 Sub/Blazer/CC Power Mirror Setup -the Perfect Mother's Day Gift!

Now, Mother's Day is approaching, and like any dutiful son (or daughter, or husband, or whatever) you're out there looking for just the right gift.

Well, I'm here to help.

Nothing says "I love you, and I want to make your life easier" like a complete set of power mirrors for her square Suburban, right?

So here they are, not one, not two, but THREE mirrors:




A left in good used condition, a right in very good used condition (was brand-new when I installed it three years ago), and just in case Mom gets a little careless around that fence post, another decent right, all GM parts, including the mount covers for the bottoms.

And, my goodness, what are THESE things?



Yes, really, they're the support plates that go inside the door on trucks originally built with power mirrors! So when you're out there with the drill cutting holes in your doors, you'll at least be doing so knowing you've got all the right mounting bits. You get the little hook-shaped brackets that squirm around the front window track, too, but they wriggled out of the picture to cuddle up in the nuts-and-bolts bag.

But, you say, these mirrors don't run themselves! They need all those little electrons to line up and push! And you'd be right, of course. So to help those little buggers along, we have (in keeping with the theme here) three wiring harnesses: a left door harness, a right door harness, and a front-body harness:



in very good condition, they even include the stainless self-threading hex-head screws you're going to need to replace the rivets on the rubber boots. The back cover on the driver-side window-switch connector popped loose, as they're prone to do, and had to be reattached but all the wiring is intact.

The eagle-eyed may notice an extra two-pin Molex connector way down by the door-lock relay connector, this lets you hook up remote lock/unlock through an alarm if you've got one. Mom needs that.

To send those electrons scurrying down the proper bit of copper you will get a bounty, a surfeit, a windfall, a cornucopia, a trifecta of mirror controls:



One was new when installed three years ago and is still in perfect condition, one is complete and intact but shows evidence of where someone tried to pry the switch out of the bezel (bad idea, they're one piece), and the third is aesthetically fine but someone cut the wires (there's enough to splice if you ever had to do so.)

I'm sure there's going to be some spoilsport out there asking "Well, what does it fit?" Well, because it's got four doors worth of wires in it it'll fit the last few years of square Suburbans and crew cabs, and probably earlier ones, and if you wanted to change the driver-door window switch terminal for a double unit and ignore a few extra wires it ought to work in single-cab trucks and Blazers too but that's up to you to figure out.

Price? Oh yeah, that.

$325 obo+shipping gets you all this familial love.

If you're close enough to pick all this stuff up, or you're willing to take the risk on shipping them (carriers don't like to insure glass...) you can have these, too:



The front door windows with the little blacked-out area adjacent to where the mirror housing blocks the view out the door.

Do it for Mom.
