The stock mirrors just have signals, they do not marker lights.

My 2004 has both signal and marker lights. Is that a 2001 thing? Either way and as far as I know, mirrors are physically interchangeable from 99 on. It's just the features and the wiring that are different.

They do. You should be able to get aftermarket ones on E-Bay. Cool Vue is the aftermarket one I got to replace the one I busted. It's barely distinguishable from the OEM one on the other side. I don't seem to see Cool Vue on E-Bay anymore, though. I can't attest to the quality of the other brands. You can get OEM ones also, but they are pretty spendy.

Try here...

On the left where it says "Start here" put in mirrors then the model and year of your truck. Then keep paging down until you find the ones you want.

Someone on the Excursion forum bought a set of AM Autoparts towing mirrors with power, heat and turn signals and they look good and he likes them. I'm thinking of buying a pair in the future also. It's confusing because they have a pair with heat and turn signals for $267.40 and another pair with power, heat, turn signal and clearance light built in for $305.95. Not sure if OEM offers one with clearance light and one without. Someone with an 03-07 Super Duty would know.

Do you remember which ones you ordered off their site/how much did they cost? And do you have any pics so we can see what they look like?

Not to hijack the thread, but anyone know where to get just the mirror housing for a decent price? Previous owner of my truck must have hit something with the mirror and it is cracked. Don't need the whole mirror, just the plastic housing. Mine is an 05 with factory tow mirrors with turn signal/marker lights.
