im throwing 06 mirrors on mine (ford mirrors) already got them, power, heated, blinkers. got the 97 doors im deleting the wing window and putting them there. been working on it for a little bit. didnt wanna say anything til they were done but i didnt wanna look like i was biting off someone elses idea

 

Deleting vent windows??????????????????????????????????????????? ?????????????????



Nothing better than vent windows when it comes to an old truck!

Besides, it's the only A/C in these trucks

 

ya, I've got a/c in my truck, and with the dynamat it keeps the heat out and the cold in.

 

pretty dang hard to beat a good set of stainless steel west coast mirrors.

 

^^^^^^

I agree!

But if you can't afford those, second best is the Ford tri-pod ones

 

got those mirrors on mine, they arent the best for a truck over 8' tall. having power to move them down and around when backing up the trailers is nice too. especially when backing around a corner.

 

Yeah oreo I guess power mirrors would be good for YOUR special application. lol

 

I think power mirrors would be awesome, not only the fact of not having to get out of the truck 10 times to get the pass side mirror right, but when your driving at night and some a-hole comes up behind you with his brights on, you can move the mirrors so it shines in his face

 

Another way of doing that is flicking on some really bright off road lights mounted aiming towards the back on the step bumper

 

I got those lights too

 

I agree, I love the tripod mirrors on mine. The PO put a stick on spot mirror in one of the corners of each so I can see my back tires all the time. They are handy for maneuvering in tight spaces and I can see exactly how my truck lines up when pulling into a parking space.

They can also take a beating, I just leave them out, even when not towing as I like the extra view they give. I caught the passenger one going through a narrow underpass one night, all it did was pushed it in and a small dent. When off roading the driver's side one decided to touch a tree, but again just turned in. And last week, I clipped a really tall snowbank with the passenger one and it spun flat. Surprised the hell out me, but no damage at all.

But power mirrors would be really nice for avoiding those high beam ******s.

 

These are what I want.
Been hunting for them for a while, with no luck.

 

Aw man, they gotta be chrome, not black!

 

I agree, much rather have crome or stainless steel
