Replacing mirrors to different style

I have a 1990 7.5 dually.

i recently replaced the doors and they didn’t come with mirrors. The old mirrors were broke, and I was trying to figure out what style of mirror I should put on the truck. I only use the truck to tow to Arizona a very large gooseneck horse trailer so towing style would be preferable.

im no mechanic, or handy man. And this is my first real project that I’m considering.

I don’t want super new style ford mirrors that are plastic, are their other options I could consider that are metal framed to keep it kind of original but also towing style such as the newer mirrors? All my searching shows small mirrors.

this is my 1996 but if you find those swing out mirrors they make a add on mirror thing you can have the visibility of towing mirrors or you can slow the top and make the mirror be able to move out but IMO the width needs to be a bit more for that to be the best

Factory Ford recreational mirrors here on mine. Bought a new one from Ford not too long ago for about 150 each. They came with all the hardware. Might be worth looking in the local pick n pull yards too. Might find some.
