Want real tow mirrors for your Expy? Here's how (lot of pics)

These are not power-folding, unfortunately.

I have a 2007 fully loaded, which means that my current mirrors are power folding (along with everything else).
If I buy these towing mirrors, will they be plug and play (and I will just lose the ability to powerfold), or will the wiring cause any problem?

To the best of my knowledge, everything on your mirrors will work except for the power fold feature. I have heard some success stories that had to modify wiring or add on in order to get power folding. but everything else should work.

Excellent post!

Thanks, @cman1120, for the post. I've been looking for something like this ever since we bought our 2011 Expedition. We pull a travel trailer and I had to resort to the generic, over-the-counter mirror extensions. Not sufficient. Especially when compared to the towing mirrors I used to have on my old F250.

I was googling to help my sister-in-law find towing mirrors for her vehicle when I came across your post. I immediately looked up the version for my Expedition year and ordered them. They just showed up yesterday, I installed them, and they look great!

Thanks again for the post. I would not have known these even existed if it were not for your post.

BTW, my cost was $239. Here's the link:

Glad I could help you guys out. I did a lot of searching first for the same thing and couldn't find much till these mirrors came out this March and I figured I'd try and make some folks lives easier lol. How's the sight with the new mirrors treating you? Me personally, I would have a hard time going back to stock mirrors.
