I think the whole purpose of most of us wanting your mirrors was to get the "powerfold" option for those us with the HD tow package that couldn't get that option with the package. How do they plan for us to enable that feature if we don't even have the switch or are they providing the new switch with the kit. Also can you get the mirrors with the regular signals and not smoked and still have power and heated glass? I don't see that option on your page for the '13s.

Since these are plug and play I really doubt they will come with a switch,you would have to take your truck to a auto shop and have them wired to get the power fold option to work

Doesn't that kind of defeat the purpose of offering an aftermarket power fold? If I had factory power fold why would I want aftermarket ones? So these mirrors are only for those people who have the wimpy mirrors that have the factory power fold option? That would seem a little short sided.

I think you're actually the minority here.

Many of us, myself included, wanted tow mirrors when we got our trucks, but didn't want to sacrifice the power folding option. So we got stock Mirrors.

Then ford came out with the powerscope but there were too expensive.

So Tony's mirrors give us the power fold plug and play option without spending 2k on mirrors.

What you are essentially saying is that you want to replace a light fixture in your house with a ceiling fan/light combo, but you don't want to add a switch and the necessary wires to control the fan and the light separately.

Where those of us with powerfold mirrors are going from a standard 52" fan/light combo to a 60" fan/light combo.
