Default TOW MIRRORS again!

Sorry but I can't find my answers by searching. I have a 2007 f150 without power folding. My mirrors have heat, auto tinting, electric, and blinkers. 2008f1504x4 has talked me into investigating tow mirrors more and I really want them now haa. So my question is has anyone added the power fold somehow? Also where do y'all get your tow mirrors, tasca? Any pics?

Tasca is the best place to get the oem's mine from 1aauto.com ... I couldn't afford the lil extra to get oem... I think they'd look real nice on your truck especially with paint to match caps ... Finish off the big and wide look... And bein as high as you are the blind spot mirrors will rock shop lol...


Oh and your welcome for changin your mind again... Lol I really think you'll like them bro especially since your lifted so high and do towing

I haven't... But I have the wiring diagram at home and there is a seperate module you would need to buy to make it work as well as the other mirror switch which handles the power fold option (unless you went with a aftermarket switch)... When I get home and log on I'll post the wiring diagram for you...

I looked into this for a long time a while ago but abandoned the idea due to finding too many people have their motors stop working many times. It's also very expensive for everything. So I hope all goes well and when you do it to let us know how it went!

Man I can't believe nobody has tried this. I would just want to wire the mirrors to fold in and out with a switch like some other trucks have. I can't be the only one that wants to see what it takes.

I'm sure you'd have to put a motor in the mirror since the tow mirrors aren't available with power fold... Atleast the f150 ones aren't as far as I know

Oh wow I didn't know that. Do you know if the newer f150 mirrors fit our trucks?
