Research on Mirror for GMC Sierra 1500

Most mirrors just let you know if you look pretty. Your GMC Sierra 1500 mirrors can do that, but they also let you know if a car is getting too close, if you have enough room to back up, what direction you are heading, or even what temperature it is outside. Fairy tale princesses would be jealous!

Mirror, mirror on my truck....

Ray Harroun is often given credit for "inventing" the rear view mirror in 1904 as a load-lightening device in his race car. (Back then, race cars were dual passenger vehicles....the mechanic in the other seat was responsible for telling the driver if someone was coming up close!) Getting rid of the passenger made the car lighter and faster, and quite possibly quieter. Your GMC Sierra 1500 mirror, both rear view and side mirrors, trace back to this genius idea.

The convex shape of a traditional vehicle mirror allows the driver to see around a large area with a relatively small piece of glass. The one drawback is that your perception of the object's size can be distorted. That is why you sometimes see the phrase "objects may be closer than they appear" on the bottom of your GMC Sierra 1500 mirror.

While state laws vary, almost all of them require at least two mirrors (either side or rear view) on any vehicle on the roadway. Driving around town with an obviously nonfunctional (or missing) GMC Sierra 1500 mirror is going to attract the attention of your local law enforcement authorities sooner or later. Who needs that headache?

When do I need to replace my GMC Sierra 1500 mirror?

Shattered GMC Sierra 1500 side mirrors often are caused by collisions with other vehicles or objects (like low hanging tree branches, or debris tossed around during severe weather events). Even if the mirror glass does not break, these collisions can freeze the assembly of your side mirrors in place, keeping you from getting a complete view of your surroundings.

Other problems you may experience with your GMC Sierra 1500 mirrors are less dangerous, but they can be annoying. Your mirrors may stop telling you what your outside temperature is, or no longer act as a compass when you are driving. If the temperature sensor is working correctly, the only other option is replacing your GMC Sierra 1500 mirror.

Can I replace my GMC Sierra 1500 mirror myself?

Most people can replace their GMC Sierra 1500 mirrors by themselves, and save some serious money with a top quality part from PartsGeek. A repair shop might charge you anywhere from $175 to $300, so you can enjoy some significant savings if you take on this repair.
