  • In this video I'll show you how quick and simple it is to remove your OEM side mirrors and replace them with much larger tow mirrors! I bought this set of mirrors from Boost Auto Parts and I'm really glad that I did. The factory mirrors are much too small in my opinion, and since replacing, I've never looked back (into the old mirrors that is!). Although I'm not a professional when it comes to utilizing Forscan, I was able to purchase the adapter from Amazon and get everything working just the way I wanted.

    Nice truck! I ordered a 2024 f150 xl. It does not have tow mirrors or turn signals on the mirrors. I want to do what you did. What did you do in FORscan to enable the running light, turn signals, and puddle lights? Was that info provided by Boosted Auto when you bought them? Thanks.

    What did you have to turn on in Forscan to get the puddle lights to work? Seen a video on how to turn on turn signal but nothing on puddle lights.

    Great video. Question where did you get it what did you do to black out the f-150 badges on the front of the truck. Love that look.

    • @WesleyAllenNC

      Thanks. This was purchased from Asheville Ford. It’s an STX version of the XL so it came with the black badges and a few other small features highlighted in the video..

    So you can get everything working with forscan and didn't need the jumper wire?

    • @WesleyAllenNC
      @WesleyAllenNC  26 днів тому

      That’s right. I never used the jumper wire. It took some playing around w/ Forscan to get everything working, but I also had the 22 pin connector going to my OEM mirror instead of the 8 pin or whatever the smaller version is. That may have also played a factor..

    Thinking of getting these for my 2023 F-150. Have a couple of questions if you don't mind. Do you still like the mirrors? Do you have the power fold and if so, will the fold in with the mirror extended or do you have to put the mirror back in before you can fold them in? Thanks.

    • @WesleyAllenNC
      @WesleyAllenNC  5 місяців тому

      Yeah I still have them, and still like them. They've only been on for a couple of months so I can't speak to longevity just yet.. I don't have the power fold option on these mirrors.

    • @WesleyAllenNC
      @WesleyAllenNC  3 місяці тому

      I don’t opt for the power mirrors since mine didn’t come with it originally. I may have been able to activate on Forscan since I THINK I have the wiring, but it added too much to the upfront mirror cost for me to want to try..

    Did you ever get the blind spot sensor to work

    • @WesleyAllenNC
      @WesleyAllenNC  6 місяців тому

      I didn’t. I think your truck has to have the actual sensor plates installed into the bumper or taillight. The lights pops on when I crank the truck but then turn off and never come back on
