Homelink Rear View Mirror Harness

2019
Toyota Tundra TSS
Super White (the truck too)


My truck was vandalized a few weeks ago. They smashed in the front passenger door glass and stole some items. At some point they saw the dash camera hanging from a bracket on rear view mirror and decided to tear the entire mirror off the windshield. In the process they ripped the wiring leading to the mirror completely apart. Only a short section of the red wire exists, everything else is so short it does not make it to the existing exit hole from the headliner. So patching is not an option.


The glass repairs to the windshield and door have been made. Toyota is telling me its $1700.00 to replace rear view mirror (homelink version) and the entire headliner must be removed to replace the wiring harness that connects the truck power supply to the mirror.


I am thinking of using an after market homelink mirror which is significantly more inexpensive. However, I cannot seem to find any material on where the other end of that rear view mirror harness plugs in. I was thinking behind the overhead console which is easily removable.


Has anyone had to replace that harness on a 3rd Generation Tundra?


I may pull the console down and just explore if no one has faced this issue previously. IF that is the case I will come back and document the process for future Tundra folks.

 

Man I would be so pissed. Is your insurance unwilling to pony up for an OEM mirror?

Wonder why it costs so much when it doesn't even work with any garage door opener I've had?

 

Insurance is willing to foot the bill and cashing me out based on the repair estimate. I figured to replace myself and save over a 1000

You should be able to find all wiring diagrams needed and also the connector number. Shouldn’t be too hard to replicate. You will just need to find the part number for the mirror to ensure you get the same mirror with a connector that aligns. Good luck!
