Mirrors - Power vs Non-Power
Hi All
I was looking at the Haynes manual for the Aerostar and they describe 3 types of mirrors available for our van - the standard one mounted on the door, the "west coast" style bolted on the door, and the power one that's much bigger than the standard mounted higher on the door.
I have the "power" mirrors, but for the life of me I can't find the dash switch for it! Did they make this mirror in a non-power version or did a previous owner visit the junkyard and retrofit power mirrors without bothering to hook them in?
I love how big these mirrors are - was great for towing a tent trailer this summer, but I'd love to adjust them from the driver's seat instead of leaning over to adjust them after my wife has driven the van. I was wondering if these are power mirrors that were retrofitted, or did they make them in Manual?
Thanks in advance.

The adjustments are on the door. Just below the window about 3 to 5 inches from the front on both the driver and passenger doors. If the connectors are there, they are in the door panels. You will need to get the switches from a Junk Yard or pay a fortune at Ford.
