I have to get some. Towing my travel trailer, and have to be able to see down the side of it. What choice do I have?

You can skip on the turn signal option, use Amazon Prime and an Amazon Prime cashback card to get it down to like $240

Dorman F150 chrome mirror caps recommended (they fit), can't see these things for shit at night wouldn't want someone knocking them off your truck

I know this is an old thread but I'm looking for tow mirrors for my 2004 (built in late 2003) NXP with tow package. The mirrors have puddle lamps but no signals. Doubt they have "memory". I'm good with manually extending them. One manufacturer is telling me that the wiring will not be in place to enable the turn signals. Anyone have any experience with whether the wiring is present or not? Hate to have to open the door panel just to check for this but am willing to pay for the turn signals on the mirrors.

If you look at the wiring harness at the mirror you should see a light green / white stripe wire for the turn signal.

Yes but are the turn signals wired to the mirror connectors in every vehicle or only those vehicles that came with mirrors with the turn signal indicators? My vehicle did not have the signals in the factory supplied mirrors. I could see them not providing them but think it would be easier to wire all vehicles for it. Probably heaters and puddle lights too since they are relatively simple. Not sure about memory, power folding, or other features that would require special controls.

Yeah there's a good chance the wiring is there, but I'm not certain. Pull the panel and see what ya got there. The wiring was almost there on older Ford trucks that I know for certain.
You may find you need different switches or fuses/relays if the wiring is in place.

Just realized I didn't get back with the results. So for my NXB model the turn signal wiring was not present. Didn't stop the other features (power adjust but not extension or folding, pool lights) from working. Not sure if heat works.
