New black insert

[Limited Legend]

Has anyone installed the new black inserts on their mirrors? I saw a video on YouTube about the MY23 vs 22 differences and the clear mirror insert is replaced with black.

Here's a good picture that I took this past weekend at the dealership. A 2022 on the left, and a 2023 on the right.

I think I will be going with something like this:

SUPAREE LED Side Mirror Turn Signal Lights, Sequential Dynamic Indicator Strip​

Most people swapping are doing the sequential turn signals from Amazon. For mez it wouldn't be worth the money to buy a factory smoked lens and do the swap when I can just put tint film over the factory clear one and get same effect.

That’s exactly what I did, just put the Luxe vinyl cover over them. It has 3 different darkness options.

Wish I had some. Only trim piece on my truck that isn’t blacked out.

The vinyl covers were super cheap - like $20 maybe if I remember right?

Yeah, that’s basically my theory. Glad there’s others who agree here.

I really like your wheels as well! Wc ish and shade did you close for the Luxe mirror wrap?

I just used a tint I got on Ebay. Did the mirrors, cab light and taillights.

Thanks! I went with the “mid/gloss” option from Luxe. The darker ones probably look the best to match the paint when the blinkers aren’t functioning, but I wanted a little transparency & contrast.

I do wish that Lamin-x made this product though. I’ve used them on my Jeep & for the fog & taillight covers on the Ram & their product is way more durable & accurately cut compared to Luxe. I had to take a utility blade to trim a little off the Luxe & the taillight film wasn’t cut exact either so I wasn’t happy about that.

I have Luxe tint on my taillights, blinkers and 3rd brake light too. The tint for the blinker lenes were too long, so I just started at the inner edge and then just trimmed off the excess at the end. My taillight tint fit was perfect. I went with their dark tint.

Luxe has known quality issues with fitment. There is a 5th gen owner that makes them. What I have on my truck. His name is Paul Cre. Not sure if he is on forum or not. I contacted him through Facebook. Very good quality and perfect fit
