    Mirrors were a great buy and work perfectly. Was pleasantly surprised to see the directional function working since I didn’t have that feature with the original mirrors. I went and purchased the wiring harness to light up the running light feature on the mirrors also. Easy install with this also.

    I’d replaced the ones in my excursion from the same manufacturer after the driver side was broken and the first set the large mirror was so loose when I drove the truck it give me a headache they send a second set and the defrost didn’t work so I ended up buying oem from the local dealer of course they’re expansive but I knew those were going to work just fine

      I've been scouring the internet and so far all I can is no. So far all I know is that ford is even the only company to offer OEM chromatic tow mirrors and they are only on Lariat and up/ f-250. With this year of GM they are also offering it on upper trims. Not sure why the feature can't be brought over more easily.

After the install my Check Engine Light is ON because it is not sensing the Temp sensor now. Is there a Fix for this?

    @jdwht2455 11 місяців тому

    I added these a couple weeks ago - now I can see what's behind me. The manufacturer supplied a color coded wiring diagram if you wanted to add puddle or clearance lights but that means pulling the door inner panel off to access the wiring. I suspect that there is a pigtail/connector there that is 22 to 8 pin that you need to tie into or find a Ford ($$$) 22 pin pig tail.

  • @M-.-Jones
    @M-.-Jones 4 роки тому +6

    I've seen some tow mirrors that come with an 8 to 22 pin connector. Does that mean it's meant to connect your 8pin to the mirror which is 22?

      For this model if you have the lariat or higher you would need an adapter however, at that point you'd be better purchasing an OEM equivalent model. IF you have the XL and XLT model and DONT want to rewire to house OEM version then these are for you

    All Ford style OEM or aftermarket mirrors will shake when you have them extended. OEM is best but prices range $600-$900-$1250 this depends on what dealer you buy from. Definitely an investment if your pulling 14 plus or an enclosed trailer. Good deals at fairwayford.com or Ron dupart wholesale ford parts.
    Blinkers and heat will work on tow mirrors from ford even without originally having that function on OEM mirrors. Dealers will verify part by vin and tell you that you will have no functions except power mirror glass. Not true, your mirror will come with an 8-22 adapter which will give you signal signal and parking lights, as well as heated mirrors. The light on the heated mirror will not illuminate but you will see it working.
