Tow Mirrors on Lightning?

[bewbie]

Has anyone attempted to put these on? One of the things I miss most about my old truck is the blind spot mirror, plus I’d like some more visibility, I feel like the OEM are a bit on the small side.

If the blinker activated the camera to show on the odometer I wouldnt have a use for these.

I've thought about this, but for now I'm going to try making do with the stock units.

Side concern, the fold & telescope function on my old F250 had a joystick wonder how they handle that aspect of function with the current door switch? Swap for another version of switch or is functionality enabled through BCM programming using the current switch?

Yes, there was a post earlier about someone who changed to the tow mirrors and retaining BLIS, camera, and lights.

The telescoping action on these is manual. The powered telescoping mirrors are about $2000, but figured they wouldnt work without the appropriate switch.

It will most likely work, however one thing to note is more aerodynamic drag. It won't be much, but if you are hauling a lot and a good distance you might see it.
