Jagtyson said he did. There are also a dude in the comments section of the video that didn't separate the two pieces in the rear half and just put the full on top of it. My point is we sort of assumed the video was informed, but really, the guy was just trying to make sense of the parts he had...
I didn't even try to see if it would fit nor did I question the technique in the video. Too bad I threw away my extra pieces. Hope it doesn't matter in the end, but I do see the potential strength gains of mounting both.
The more I think about it, the dumber it seems to be drilling anything out...
I am not tracking the front pieces could be separated into two parts and that they'd fit. I did mine exactly like the video, i.e. only separated the rear ones and remounted them. I haven't heard anyone reuse the front ones. I feel like they wouldn't fit, but maybe that was the way to go.
So you...
I have been using this for years: https://www.chemicalguys.com/EcoSmart_RU_Waterless_Car_Wash_Wax_1_Gal_p/wac_707ru.htm
Recommended to me by a friend who is a car detailing freak. Haven't used water to wash a car since 2016.
Just got this done today and with the advice here and the video, it was easy to do. Paid $90 total with shipping (got it for free). I can't believe this isn't standard. Makes it look so much cleaner in addition to the protection. Thanks for all the help!
At the end of the day, of all the differences, they are really minor with the exception of appearance. I think the grille and wheel/tire combo is a major difference over other trims that is the decision point. The quality of life and interior options are basically the same. You should expect...
ODB will add everything/anything you want. You need all the right modules still, i.e. if you took the chrome heater tow mirror and put it on my truck which doesn't have heat, even with ODB Genie (or dealer flash) it wouldn't heat. You need to replace the module in the door for the one with heat...
Can you send a pic and part number? I would be interested in putting the 2018 mirror on but I'd need to keep the puddle light and blind spot indicator.

Short answer is yes, it's possible to take the guts out of heated tow mirror and put it into your existing mirror, but you'd need the modules and code flashed too.
Or somehow get the dealer to do it for free - maybe some customer service satisfaction thing. It isn't like they have to do anything except hook up a device and pay someone's hourly to push the buttons. Let's be honest here. $370 for the ODB Genie + bypass is a great example of monopolistic...
Irony is the TFL guys just did a Rebel towing MPG test and it got better MPG towing 7k in the snow and in the mountains! Stock Rebel too. Rebel does much better on freeways. I get around 10.5 now, all suburb, short-trip driving. They were higher than that towing on the freeway in bad weather. So...
Is it a noticeable difference when backing up at night in the camera with these? I redid my wife's car with almost the same ones and it's not unbelievably better but it's more white instead of red which is probably better in the long run.
It's almost like idling (especially remote start) is like flooring it. If I am early on after resetting the MPG calculator, I can sit there in a parking lot and watch the MPG average decline. It's insane.
