Thanks!

F-250 LD mirrors will work as they are the same truck as the 150's, but the super duty mirrors I don't think will fit. I had a '99 F-350 and it looked like a totally different mounting pattern with the studs. They where plug and play, my truck didn't come with turn signals in the mirror and they new ones do so it wouldn't hook up but the person I bought it from included a second harness that connects to that and my truck. He said they came with the harness when he bought them. As far as the mounting goes, I just put them on lol, didn't have to shim or anything (although they are angled up, you can see it in the pics). They're not too flush though, I have the window visor things and I wasn't sure if the mirrors went over or under the visors, but mine are about ready to fall off so I just put them over so I have a bit of a gap.

Once I look up F250 LD tow mirrors, I find what I'm looking for! Pretty dang expensive though:

Could we archive it so it's still visible just no one can post on it?
