That eBay auction is by 1A auto. As far as I know they are the only ones that have the aftermarket power fold ones. Someone on here has them on their truck. I forget who though.

It is "melonas" who has those mirrors. He supposedly loves them.

Perfect

Yes, I couldn't imagine how they cold be better in any way. The lens color is clear which I wanted anyway.

I have them in the cart at 1A, just haven't pulled the trigger yet. Trying to figure out if it's worth $60 to not walk around the truck.

I find it useful in a parking lot when parking next to other trucks otherwise not really needed except for the "cool factor".

I have the same ones from 1A. So nice to just push that button and have them fold in.

I just bought them, they came on Tuesday. I bought it direct from their website with a 5% off coupon code. It expired at the end of May but there may be another code. Ask Tony from 1aauto, he's on the forums. I didn't get a chance to install them yet as my truck is in the shop. I'm getting it back tomorrow hopefully and I'm going to try to install them over the weekend. They look nice. They're pretty hefty. Also, the bottom glass is heated too. I wasn't sure before I bought it if it was.

Lol......nothing wrong with heated bottoms....

It's actually really important, the bottom mirror shows the blind spot and on those rainy days it's good to know you can see your blind spot. In the picture on their website and on the mirror itself, only the top one has that little heated/defogger symbol. But the bottom mirror glass has heater wires plugged into it too even though it has no symbol.

Did any of you guys get ones where the upper cap is paintable to match?
