If it's not prewired for turn signals, it wouldn't be that difficult to wire yourself.
Just tap into the front signal on each side and run the wires along the fender to the door.

It's a gamble. If it's not on the RPO list? It may not be wired.
Keep us updated Radoz71
I'd love to know if the wiring is there and if it was hooked up

The RPO list is the abbreviated list of options your truck was built with. The RPO list can be found on your glove box door

Here is a list of the RPO Chevy Codes and build options

No, but it did have power mirrors, just no heaters or blinkers, but the wiring was there. i just plugged the towing mirrors in.
