Towing Mirrors for '03 Expedition

Will the telescoping towing mirrors, from an '04-'09 F150 fit an '03 Expedition?

I have the EB version with the signal lights/power/heat option in them so any change wouldn't work for me. After searching around and wasting my money on several pairs of assorted hook/strap/suction I went with McKesh mirrrors. Best mirror I ever used for towing.

Thanks. I've hear those mirrors are quite good. However, i was just wondering if the conveience of the telescoping towing mirros from the 2004-2008 F150 would fit an Expy.....

No I did not. I found some mirrors that work good enough (the CIPA 11952). Top arm is clipped on the mirror like they show in their catalog photos (CIPA-USA - Your one-stop source for mirrors and aftermarket accessories, products, rv & towing, towing mirrors, adjustable clip on)....bottom arm is on the turn signal. Beleive it or not, they stay on, and don't vibrate too much. THey work good enough (I tow a travel trailer). You can see down the side of the trailer if you take your time adjusting them. It'd be nice if they stuck out a little further though. I just give lots of advance with my turn signal, before I change lanes.

I thought about the one with the suction cup, but didn't want those kinds of forces on my stock glass.

You know, after towing more, and more, it's amazing the number of vehicles you see w/o towing mirros. How on earth do they cahnge lanes?
