power mirror replacement parts?
I have a '99 f-150 with the power/ contour mirrors. Inside the mirror the two plastic (nylon?) screws that move the mirror are snapped off. Is it possible to buy just these or am I going to have to buy a whole mirror assy? I am not impressed with the non-oem replacements on e-bay. Thanks, John

If you are talking about the white pieces that move the mirror then yes you have to replace the entire assembly, at least that is what Ford told my dad for his '02. It was $160 for the mirror and you can install it yourself. I did his in less than an hour. And that was with a trip to sears because I lost one of the nuts.

The turn-signal mirrors are expensive, but a regular power mirror for your truck is about $45. RockAuto.com also carries mirror parts like glass and covers.

I didn't want to buy the whole assembly either. all I needed was the mirror. So I went to the hardware store and bought a stock of aluminum, put it in my drill and to use it as a laythe. Then I took my Dremmel and carved two of them out. I only needed one, but these will never break. I dont understand why these parts are not available when you buy the mirror....
