I's confused. I have an FX4, and I have the orange reflectors on my mirrors. I thought I paid extra for that, since the base models don't have them. In fact, I was just thinking about tinting them, now that I have the HD heads/tails and the reflectors kind of stand out now...

You can buy the plain black ones if you don't want to spend the time to try and tint them... I think it was like $10 for the pair. I couldn't stand the orange, it stood out way too much, even though I technically paid for them. It's one of those things that comes on the trim level you like even though you don't want it.

Here's the front end now, crappy pic I'll get more up when it's nice and the truck is washed. Still have to switch over the rear bumper prob later this week.

Great if you have access to the paint shop and the skill for the mirror inserts (to get rid of the orange reflector).
For less than $30, order the black inserts from ford parts. they just clip in, and match the plastic of the mirrors.


just ask the parts guy to look up the mirror parts on an XL F150.


all your mods look great !
