I just stayed with the original mirrors and add snap on extensions when towing.

8 or 22 pin?
I installed 8 pin JZSUPER brand ones, $220/pr Amazon. So far so good, I have the rear window defroster, so plug and play, I got heated main mirrors, regular power adjust, and mirror turn signals. No heat or turn signals prior. No vibration probs. Manual fold, manual retract.

I ended going with OEM - they're not significantly more expensive than boost and then put in boost switchbacks. I've read too many negative comments about wind noise and whistling that for the price difference, I didn't think aftermarket was worth it.

Not to hijack the thread, but do the switchbacks eetaon spotlights? If so, are they any brighter than oem?
