Outside mirrors

I have had an issue with my passenger side power mirror ever since it magically got broken in a parking lot. The break is in the front upper case just above the pivot area. Very typical from what I find. Repairs have not worked unless it ends up looming like crap on the outside. Been taped with electrical tape for a month now.....

So...I found very few sets available in power folding with chrome front covers. I decided on ordering from Amazon because of the total price with free shipping. A total of $75.04 to my door. Ordered Aug 31, received Sept 6.....

I ordered a set because of the look of a new and old look from one side to the other. My Bronco is no show truck but I knew it would bother me. All looks good....real good....just need time to pull the door panels and do the replacement.

Once done, I will have to find someplace on here to sell the old ones....all is good except the one housing....

Just to update for anyone wanting to know.....these mirrors fit 99.99% perfect. The ONLY issue I saw was the fit to the body was just a hair to the rear off of the imprint of the original gasket. To those with good paint that is not an issue but some previous owner of mine did a cheap repaint and taped around instead of removing the mirrors.

I highly recommend these items.....

I just recently bought two power mirrors on Amazon for a total of about that price. I had manual black mirrors before, but just finished putting in all new power options (regulators door locks door panels etc.) and the chrome mirrors work great and look really good! I have wanted power mirrors for a while and now I finally do have them.
