Default 2011 f150 outisde mirror orange light or reflector

I just bought a used 2011 f150 supercrew platinum. I have noticed that the outside mirrors have a orange lense on each mirror facing the front of the truck. I have noticed f250 having these kind of mirrors and they was lit up at night. Mine do not light up. Are they supposed to light up or just a reflector? I have to replace the puddle light or spot light on the mirror because it burned out. So I want to make one trip to parts store for light bulbs.

They are just reflectors. If you are the fix it type there is a post on here that explains how you could add LED's

Add these if youd like forward facing binkers on your mirrors... I love mine... Just be sure to coat the clear lens, and backside with silicone for waterproofing...

Theres a how to Thread in the Lighting Section!

You can also buy replacement reflectors with LEDs built in and a pigtail to splice into the mirror turn signal repeater wiring.

One of the best and simplest mods I've done.
It's a great addition, plus watching another f150 drive by, while I'm waiting to turn, and you can actually see their expression of; "what the hell, mine don't do that." So there's that little bit of enjoyment.

Hey guys I have a 2011 F150 XLT and I have the black inserts on my side mirror and I'm looking for the regular stock orange reflector. I'm new to this forum so I was wondering if anyone knew where I could get those reflectors or if any of the members just have two laying around they would wanna give away.

Thanks guys.
