Swapping out Side Mirrors without turn signal.

[rlovertonjr]

I just recently upgraded from a 2003 Eddie Bauer Expy to a 2017 Expy XLT, one of the things i notice the most is that the side mirrors do not have the turn signals in them. Is this a easy to change the side mirrors for ones with turn signal built in or will the wiring be the biggest challenge.

I would almost say that the wiring is down underneath the door panels cuz I'm not going to not put different wiring harnesses cars with or without turn signals

If you go with these tow mirrors they are plug and play for signals on trucks without signals.

Have not read yet anyone trying to swap a factory mirror but I would presume it would work just fine.

Ummmm. My 2017 XLT has the turn signals on the aft side of the mirrors. Perhaps they were part of some "package?"

It was part of the 202A upgrade package for the XLTs.

Yup. 202A basically turns an XLT in a Limited.

I've been curious about this too. If the wiring is already there it would be a pretty simple swap.

Those mirrors look great. On my “to-do” list for sure. Install looks pretty straightforward. There’s a decent video on YouTube. Not sure if we can post direct links but just search for “Trail Ridge Tow Mirrors for Ford Expedition” and the guy shows door panel removal, install and wiring. Not a great vid but enough for those of us who like to see a visual as opposed to reading a manual.
