They would be inside the mirror box with the mirrors if any manual wiring is required.

We currently do not have them on the website.

Can I volunteer to be a test installer and reviewer? With lots of pics and details?

Do you guys do that Tony?

Ahh, ok, thanks Tony. Just was hoping to see what I might be in for beforehand. I'll wait for a few "guinea pigs" and see the response here.

These guys are pretty good with providing any wiring and instructions on what needs to be done by the customer. They do try to keep this stuff to a minimum.

All of these mirrors are in our Kansas warehouse, I'm in MA. So I can't run to the warehouse and take any pics. This product is very new to us; I typically wait until we have pictures to post our Ads, but I wanted to give you guys first shot at buying them.

Ill be ordering these for my 2013 XLT once i see a picture. After reading all the install threads; hopefully i can get them working with a new switch and a few wires. How are you guys running the wires from driver to passenger sides? I havent yet looked to see how it is done but i figured id ask anyway? Also, my truck has the power adjust driver seat, do i need a new switch to power fold the mirrors (i have heard that these two options sometimes come together - my current switch does not say "fold/unfold" on it so i assumed i needed a new one)??

These are designed to be plug and play if your truck came equipped with the power fold option. If it didn't you would need to enable it.

Let me rephrase, i know i will have to run a few wires, i just hope it all goes well and it works. Ill most definitely have to buy the switch and change that too. My only remaining question is getting the wired from one side to the other. I was hoping someone who has done this can answer that. Thanks

There must have been a major run of purchases. Both of the late model styles show out of stock.
