I recorded the beginning of the installation, then my truck sat in my garage for a few days as I worked on digging thru and sorting Mom's papers.
I knew I would need my truck for shopping so yesterday I figured out the directional control wiring and finished the install temporarily.

My plan is to move them to my hotshot truck and I will finish the video with that footage.

So in short, yes, there will be a video as this is a great upgrade and I really want to spread the knowledge including wiring up the turn signals, heat and marker lights.

For anyone considering the AKKON mirrors, you can order directly for $189.99 with no tax and free shipping:

https://www.akkon.com/products/defro...ual-bolt-on-10

Not sure exactly where AKKON ships from, but I am in no rush so we'll find out. I will report back when I receive them.

Edit: mirrors shipped out of California via UPS the next business day.

Should have spent a few extra bucks and got the ones that have the puddle lights in the bottom of them. It's super nice at night time. Lights the whole side of the truck up.

Yeah I like the puddle lights on the AERDM ones.
But I specifically avoided those because I don't want the blind spot symbol and those goofy turn signal indicators in the main mirror surface.

Puddle lights sound like a nice feature. Too bad my 2012 takeoffs did not come with them.
