Sherlock Holmes: Mirror Indentification Help
With your help, I am trying to identify who the manufacturer is of the mirrors in the attached pics. They are for sale at a local pick and pull and I am not sure if they are OEM, 1AA, or another manufacturer.
Included in the photos is the only number on them (A001448152>PE

Perhaps one of the "parts" guys could chime in.

I picked them up for $200. Going to give them a try this weekend. They were very nice and said that if they don't work out, feel free to bring them back. We will see.

You might need a different connector.

Installed the mirrors this morning. Really like the fit and finish of the mirrors and can see much better out of them than the original tow mirrors.
Unfortunately I am going to be removing them and taking them back unless someone on here would like them for what I have in them.
I have a couple issues in that the new mirrors do not have defrost and they do have the signals, but apparently my truck is not wired for them. Admittedly wiring is a foreign language to me and I have no confidence that I can make them work on my own so I will be shelling out the cash for some new aftermarket ones.
If anyone is interested, shoot me a pm and I can snap a few good photos and send them over. Otherwise I will put the old ones back on and take the new ones back to the pick and pull.

Just ordered a new set of mirrors from 1A. Seems as though they may have a new price point from the mirrors that I was looking at from them before.
According to Tony they are made by the same manufacturer and have the same specifications/quality as their $365 mirrors. Power Operation, Smoke Signal and Clearance light, Defrost, Textured Cap and Chrome Cap, manual extension. Part number 1AMRP01716.
Great price shipped to my door at $219.
If in the market, you may want to give them a look. Thanks Tony.

Manual adjust, wires are for the lights. That's just my guess as it wouldn't make sense for them to have lights installed but not wired

I thought the same thing, but I installed them and the power adjust was the only thing to work. No defrost and no lights. The lights must just be for decoration!
