OEM vs. Aftermarket Tow Mirrors
Is there any difference between these at all or are they identical? The "aftermarkets" are cheaper by about $100. If theres any difference I'd prefer the OEM but if there the same I might as well get aftermarkets.

I cant comment on the towing mirrors specifically but from my past experience with aftermarket body parts, particularly mirrors fitment is usually great but part material quality lacks and the part tends to fade or breakdown at a much faster rate than OEM. The aftermarket mirror I put on my Ranger 10 years ago is cracked and faded badly while the 11 year old OEM on the other side is still in prefect condition.
