Adding mirrors with Puddle Lamps
My truck has the standard mirrors with power, head, dim, turn signal. I don't know if puddle lamps were offered on the standard mirrors.
I want to get tow mirrors, and if they come with a puddle lamp, will it work, or will it need to be wired in since my truck doesn't already have one.

It will work with the tow mirrors. The door side harness has all the needed wiring. I installed the wiring and puddle lamps to my standard mirrors. I robbed the pins/pigtails from a radio adaptor harness to add the extra circuit in the mirror harness. Tow mirrors are "plug and play".

I was going between the F150 style mirrors and the Superduty style, but I've read the marker lights on the superduty style act as a puddle lamp and I wouldn't want to be bothered with rewiring them.
