Thanks
I agree 100% and it is a safety hazard if a vehicle is in the blind spot quickly as the magnification is too great...NOTHING like my OEM mirror. I have the non-tow mirrors.
I have reached out to 1A in hope of a resolution...I really think there is a defect in the glass, at least I hope so otherwise I am going to have to go back to oem before I have an accident.

I will update as to 1A's response.

From what I've been told the OE tow mirror glass has the same magnification.

These mirrors are nearly identical to my oem superduty mirrors.


With that being said, I'm more than happy with adding the 1A's to my f150

My 1A mirrors are great and the magnification is fine.

How is the magnification causing you to miss blind spots? That's the whole point of tow mirrors! You get extension, regular and convex for blind spots!

Just to be clear...I have NON-tow 1 a mirrors as I had non-tow oem mirrors.

Will 2013 model towing mirrors work plug and play with a 05 f150?


Just reading up on products. You all offer separate button for power fold?!

05-06 only fit that year range. We do carry power fold tow mirrors for those years that does come with a pre-made wire harness to add the feature on.

Here's a link to them. F150 Tow Mirrors
