Question Towing Mirrors for 2007 SCREW. Have you tried these?

Hey All,
I need to upgrade my stock mirrors to tow mirrors. Found these on Amazon. Have any of you seen/tried them?

Amazon.com: Fit System 61185-86F Ford F-150 Driver/Passenger Side Heated Power Extendable Towing Mirror with Turn Signal and Puddle Lamp - Pair: Automotive Amazon.com: Fit System 61185-86F Ford F-150 Driver/Passenger Side Heated Power Extendable Towing Mirror with Turn Signal and Puddle Lamp - Pair: Automotive

Thanks!

I do not have those, however I bought some from 1aauto and they're great! About $100 cheaper too, but so far have held up great.

There's the link to the ones I got! Just look up 2007 mirrors on their site, but would likely be the same as my 04's.

I also have the mirrors from 1aauto, they are great. I have a 2007 and it was simply plug and play. Led turn signal, puddle light, power mirror all works fine. Has not been cold enough to try the heated mirror part yet. I tow a 25' toyhauler and the difference from tiny stock mirrors is night and day.

I agree 100%. I bought the same mirrors from 1aauto for my '05 Lariat Screw and I tow a boat and 28' camper and they are such an improvement. They have a couple YouTube videos that show how to remove the door panels.

I just ahve the 60$ add-on and they are good enough for me.

I tow a 23' toyhauler.

Those:

Don't see them much on the picture of my truck:


They install in 5sec, fit snug and doesn't vibrate they fit from 04-14 regular mirror (2 set a retainer come with it)
(I have a 2007 and they fit my dad 2013)

they look maybe a bit goofy while on the truck....but you only keep them when towing and remove when at the camping if I plan to use the truck much.
