    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 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.

      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.

  • @M-.-Jones

    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.
