Just picked up my 2004 f250,wrong mirrors.Wanted power tow got power small.Ford dealer says he cant change them out because they will not work,different wiring.I can not see ford not using the same wiring for all power mirrors.Maybe some one can tell me if i can change them over or is the dealer telling the truth?

 

I'm not sure if you can change them over or not. But, I know if I ordered something and it came back wrong, I would make the dealer fix it or order me another truck!!!

 

That doesn't sound right.... Did you already accept it?? The only difference should be the turn signals & clearance, but they sould have used the same wiring harness..

Good Luck,

Russ

 

They can be changed out, you just have a lazy dealer. I don't know if you ordered your truck or not, but if you did, and you ordered the mirrors, the dealer should fix it. Otherwise, those mirrors are all over e-bay and an easy swap.

 

I bought a 2004 SD with small power mirrors. Part of the deal was to up-grade to the pull out power tow mirrors. The dealer told me it was two bolts and hook up the wire harness. It took them less then 1 hour to change them over, so I gotta think he was right!!

 

hey, boody101...did you get the mirrors with the clearance lights and integrated turn signals?....i also took delivery of an '04 F250 with small power mirrors on the dealer's promise i could upgrade to the full power tow mirrors....when the new mirrors arrived they did not have the clearance lights and turn signals....dealer said the vehicle wasn't wired for anything other than the power remote feature....i felt screwed but didn't pursue it further....altho i've frequently thought i shuda

 

Diesel Driver.... Yes they did have the clearance lights and turn signals in them.
To deliver the truck, they removed a pair from a unit they had on their lot and put them on mine. They then ordered new mirrors for the stock unit. As I said, it took them less then an hour to install them.
My truck is a 2004 F-250 S/C XLT with a V-10 eng. Since the only options on this truck were the engine and trans, and XLT package, I can't believe that the wiring package is not installed as standard equipment. The rest is simply bolt-on
