Default Extendable mirrors for a '08 XL

Hey guys I am a total noob when it comes to Ford, and trucks in general.. I just bought a 2008 F150 XL.. A big reason I got a truck is cause I just bought a Jon Boat to fish in, and I needed something to tow it with... But after taking it to the lake the other day I realized I couldnt see with the stock mirrors. (Manual w/o tow). So I started looking around at different options and found that I liked the OEM manual extended mirrors w/ tow. I called a few dealerships, and checked online including Tacsa Ford (ebay) and the cheapest I found was the dealer that I bought the truck from. They quoted me $136 a piece... Is this a good price? Are they easy to install myself?? Thanks in advance for yalls help.

just take off the door panel, few nuts and swap em and reinstall the panel.

looks like a good price, tasca is 120 a piece, tack on shipping, i would just buy them at the dealer.
