Default New Flip Out Tow Mirrors!

Well, it was time. Was doing a lot of towing this summer with the boat and all so it was time. I think they look awesome. They flip out when ya need em and when you don't they flip down, not a bad price either $160 shipped. Had to go manual cause I had manual stock. Here's a few pics, lemme know what ya think...

Now ya gotta change your sig pic. I love these mirrors, I actually bought a pair of reg mirrors off eBay for $40 so I can keep my tow mirrors when I trade the truck in, just incase the new one doesn't have them. So what ever you do don't get rid of your old ones, alot of people do then have to buy tow mirrors again when they trade thier truck.

i have wanted a set as well. i can only find the manual ones cheap enough though, the dealer will sell the power versions for $300+. a little steep if you ask me.

I found a conversion from the 94-97 power mirrors to the new flip-up connector. Just you dont have the heat found on the new mirrors. I'm gonna dig that up for you.
EDIT: Here it is! BTW 98-01 you can also convert to power and heat. The connectors are already there. Just need switches.

Not hard at all...took me an hour to do both sides. You take off the door panel by removing the push through clips and 2 screws and door handle clip (be careful of that clip it likes to jump lol) and then the old and new mirror is held on with 3 screws..thats it. I love them they're so functional and look sweet
