Default Tow Mirrors Installed!!!

Got my tow mirrors in last night and hooked them up this morning! Got them on 1a auto for $256! Got everything hooked up besides the puddle lamps so if anyone could chime in on how to do this??? But besides that they are great and for a wonderful price!!

Looks great! I might be in the market for a set of tow mirrors in the future. Do they have the turn signals and are they heated? BTW the truck looks great also.

I put the same mirrors on my 11 XLT and even tho the truck was not equipped with puddle lights when I installed the tow mirrors the lights worked so the truck must have been pre wired for them you might check for missing fuse because I believe the wiring is in place at least it was on mine

That's cause yours is a 2009+. Puddle lights didn't come to the 04-08's until like 07-08. Anything under that will have to be wired for the puddle lamps. There is a how to on here somewhere, I know is a wire in the loom under the drivers side panel and is light blue and black towards the bottom of the bundle if I'm not mistaken!

Looks good. I think if its leveled or lifted with bigger tires tow mirrors make it look that much better.

Yes!!! I absolutely hate the look of tow mirrors with stock/small wheels. It makes them look like a cummins lol.
