Tow mirrors

[Munkiebunz3]

Same. I regularly use the power fold when I park & when I'm stuck in traffic and a fellow rider is filtering through traffic. No power fold, no swappy mirrors

Are you guys having any vibration issues with these after market tow mirrors? I bought some once for a Suburban & they sucked. (From a1 auto) I want to upgrade but I can’t stand a vibrating mirror. Also as I understand it the puddle lights can be added on the stock mirrors so they should work on these tow mirrors correct?

 

[johnboneske]

I didn't have any problems. I read though to use the original nuts from the factory mirrors on the new ones. I did and seems like with the built in washer they snugged up better and feel more secure.

The new ones come with puddle lights, don't need to ad them. I got mine with the turn signal too

Did you have turn signals in your factory mirrors?
Was curious if I bought the signal mirrors if they would work since I don’t have turn signal factory mirrors.

I like these alot, but not finding any with these features plus the power-fold option. I can do without the power telescoping, but will only swap mirrors if I can get the power-fold.

What year of F-150 Tow Mirrors will fit our 2015-2017 Expys?

NONE

The F150-lookalike mirrors are 1AAuto aftermarket Expedition Tow Mirrors --- same body and interchangeable covers and lenses, BUT totally different door mount

Yes, that is 100% correct. They look very similar, but the studs on the mirrors for the Expedition are different than the F150's. You would think they were the same and would save us and Ford some $, but they didn't do it that way, and they are NOT the same

Also I haven't seen any of the tow mirrors that are power folding or extending, you have to manually told them and extend them. Some might find them to be a pain, but do you want tow mirrors or not?

The stock mirrors no matter what you do will never work to a wide trailer or camper with, the only option is to get tow mirrors, so beggars can't be choosers... I love mine and they work amazing!

Just ordered a set from AM Autoparts for my '13 Expy.
FYI, they offer a 5% military discount, and free ground shipping.

Dies anybody have the chrome caps on their expedition tow mirrors? I'd like to see how that looks, it might sway me towards installing a set. I like my vehicles with bling.

I know I know this is an old thread...

I heard rumors that the 2004 F-250 mirrors will fit our 07-17 trucks...

Anyone around that can maybe confirm or deny that??

a myth... They don't work. I have researched it. I know that AM auto parts has mirrors from 03 to 2012 though

 

[Iamsam1117]

Yup, but I have to have my mirrors fold like a religion being in the OC and putting bigger mirrors on it without them folding screams trouble.

The F150s do not fit. I'd like it if my mirrors power fold, but they don't. Not an option yet. I drive in D.C. without an issue. You'd be fine. If I park on a side street I fold in my driver mirror. I've ridden motorcycles for better than 40 years. These kinds of mirrors don't bother me in the least. Even in the days where I would lane split like it was just another lane...

 

[adamsdaddy]

I use these and theyre great. They don't vibrate at all

etrailer says they don’t fit? Did you have to do anything special?

There are reviews on Amazon where people are using them. I'm going to order, worst case they go back. Need something for next weekend.

 

[adamsdaddy]

Good idea on the Amazon purchase. We don’t have any trips planned soon but I’ll pick up the Fit system 3391s for our next trip. It would nice to see the trailer other than when I’m making a turn.

Ok, another one resurrecting an old thread.

I'm looking for tow mirrors for my 99 Eddie Bauer. I want turn signals, but it's not a deal breaker if they don't have it. I've been told the doors are the same as the 99-03 F250 doors, but I can't confirm it. So has anybody put actual tow mirrors on a 1st gen ??

Do these have the BLIS indicator by chance?
