    I have a 2011 DC that has a manual dimming mirror and want to replace it with an auto dimming mirror. What auto dimming mirrors do you recommend? I don't want one that has a backup camera function, because I already have a backup camera installed and connected to my Pioneer headunit.

    If it is just the center rear view mirror, I bought one from eBay for my sr5. Plug and play. Bill

    I have a 2009 and the wire to run it was already up in behind the overhead light panel. I just switched out the mirror and pulled the wiring harness out and plugged it into the mirror. My mirror also has the home link garage door opener but in. Bil

    If you have an SR5 trim level truck you might be prewired for the mirror, reverse camera screen and possibly sun sensor on the dash. It’s my understanding they have different harnesses for SR5’s most notably of yours came with or without JBL stereo.

    Easiest way to see how much the factory gave you is if you pop off the sun light cover on the dash. If the end has a harness you have a high end SR5. Meaning you should have the harness overhead for both auto dimming rear view mirror and backup camera screen

    The harness might still be there, easy to check. B
