2016 F150 Platinum Towing Mirrors

Does anyone know a compatible part numbers for power folding towing mirrors for my 2016 Platinum? Ford is telling me they are not an option. I have been searching the internet for days trying to find a part number. The parts guy at Ford actually recommend I just go and install 3rd party mirrors and void the warranty. I'd rather not do that, plus have heard a lot of people get incompatible wiring harnesses and then be stuck with plugs not fitting.

My current mirrors are have the chrome cap, power folding, signal, BLIS, puddle....but do not have heat.

Thanks!

No heat in the Platty? Wow! I have heated mirrors in my XLT. FoMoCo sure does some weird things with options.....

unless they turn on with defrost automatically or the steering wheel heat, I don't think there is a separate button for it.

They turn on with the rear widow defrost.
The drivers side also auto dims when bright lights hit it at night.

Just the left on heat and dim.

Your Platinum has a 22 pin harness, those mirrors will fit and plug in.

The trick is making the power fold and extend work. On the last gen Super Duty, it was as easy as putting in the proper switch. I would like to think it would be as easy on our trucks. This CANbus network is more complicated.

Just bought me a 2015 F-150 Platinum last week with OEM power fold and extend tow mirrors. Look and work flawlessly. Have the built in cameras and puddle lamps.
Dunno why the Ford guy told you that they are not an option.
Maybe not on the 2016, but that doesn't sound right to me.
