I'm not sure if this is in the works, I haven't heard of anything. If I do, I'll let you guys know.

Thanks for asking.

Got mine today. No puddle lamps either.

My driver's side also folds in slower than the passenger side. Did somebody else say they had this issue? Didn't have time to troubleshoot today. Couple other minor problems that I pm'ed Tony about already.

My oem power fold tow mirror also folds in a hair slower then the passenger. At this point I believe it's just one of those things with these mirrors.

I replaced my OE standard size power fold mirrors with a pair of the OEM power fold/power telescope tow mirrors.


Both sets of mirrors folded exactly the same speed. And the power telescoping feature extends/retracts the mirrors at the exact same rate as well.


At the very end of the short video below you can see I fold the OEM tow mirrors in, and they both fold at exactly the same rate:

Mine are the same. (I think that makes 3). Not sure it's an issue... Don't forget, you've got a lifetime warranty from 1aauto, so nothing to worry about.

I was wondering if anyone had step-by-step newbie instructions w/ pictures for running the marker light as a running light? Not sure how to wire it.

How much slower? Mine isn't just a hair. I would say it's about 1-2 seconds. I'll time it tomorrow. I don't have the luxury like most you guys... No garage

Thanks!
I received my switch kit today and it is a universal switch that will require cutting into the dash. The kit is loomed together and included a fuse tape for 12 volt power. Overall it is a nice kit and works great.

I will attach a picture of where I mounted my switch.

I have the factory 2014 OEM ford tow mirrors that power fold and telescope. My left side is roughly 1 second slower than the right when closing. Didn't pay attention in regards to opening.
