Hello

I am looking to pull my trailer with my '10 expy but cannot find a GOOD set of towing mirrors. Does any one know if the SD or the new F-150 mirrors will fit the 3rd gen expy or is that a aftermarket that will work? Thanks for the help!

One of our members just tried the superduty ones and here is his quote.

Upsdate:

Ford Superduty mirros from 1999 to 2008 model years will NOT work on the 2008 Expedition.

Too many modifications would have to be made to use these mirrors on the Expedition.

I'm going to see if I can "borrow" a trailer tow mirror from a F-150 to see what modifcations I would have to make to use them.

I'll keep you posted.

By the way changing out the stereo in an Expedition is 1000 times easier than in a Super Duty.

there are no tow mirrors available for any year expy.... either have to use the clip or strap on ones... ** wow that sounded dirty**... or custom modified 250 or 150 mirrors...

I wish I could find the company that makes the wanna-be superduty tow mirrors for the reg cab and supercab f150.... ebay.... they are missing a huge market of expy and (97-03) supercrew owners... since crew and expy bases are bigger than reg cab

they only sell them and don't make them... need to find the manufacturer and get every expy owner to email them....

Would those mirrors work for a '97 expy, cause dont expys and 150s use the same mirrors?

from some research I have had I know 03 and some newer expy mirrors bolt up to first gen... maybe 3rd is the same as 1st... then someone should really make tow mirrors
