Default Towing Mirrors

Ok guys, need some advice/opinions here, plz. One area that the 97-03 150s seriously need upgrading is the side mirrors, IMO. The factory ones aren't much bigger than the ones on my Mustang, but I don't tow with my Stang. I recently purchased a set of Ford slide-on extensions for my Dad for Christmas, to go on his 99 150. Although they do the job of allowing to see around his Coachman trailer just fine, I'm not crazy about the look. Reminds me of wings. I'm wanting to change mirrors on my 97 150 Scab 4X4, and I've found several auctions on eBay for some extendable 250-style mirrors designed to fit our 150s. There's manual, power, and even turn signal options available. Any thoughts, suggestions, etc.?

Yes the tow mirrors work fine. I have them along with a decent amount of other people. The extra range of view they give you is great.

Here are probably the cheapest POWER ones that you will find..
