94 f150 mirror replacement options?

My truck currently has the stock chrome tiny a** power mirrors on it and they suck ***** for towing, they are barely livable for nontowing in my opinion. What are my options for some better/bigger mirrors? I plan on measuring the mounting bracket on the existing mirrors and seeing if I can find something that will just bolt on from the junkyard. Did any of the 250's come with power tow mirrors? I don't have to have power mirrors but where the truck is wired for it it would be nice.

2 other choices:
1. Manual swing away mirrors, they mount differently

2. Huge towing mirrors that mount 3 pt style.

Id go with option 1.

These do great for towing! But not alot of people like 'em for some reason?

They would look abit out of place on 94 half ton anyways.

I'm not a fan of the 3 point mirrors like that. I will probably look for the chrome manual mirrors that came on the f250 and 350s.

have you thought about a newer f250 mirror?

I would love to see my 1994 f150 with the 1999 and up style f250 mirrors (Titans also have nice mirrors). If anyone has any pics of this Please send me. I thought about just going ahead and trying it out. The biggest concern for me would be I might gotta give up my smaller foldout mirrors. If thats the case I don't think I will got that way but it is a thought.

^ YOu need to weld in sheetmetal into the vent window and eliminate it. its alot of work.

Best thing to do is to take the manual swing aways and mount the towing 3 pt mirro and arm to it. Works well.
