Well I KNOW it's not true for the pickups because my brother has a 97 and his truck is exactly the same as mine inside and out (feature wise).

from the ford service manual for 1996:

signal mirrors (bronco sport only) display a supplemental turn signal through the outside rearview mirror glass surface.


case closed.

unless he has a 97 f250+ than you can not compare it to a 95 f150.

two completely different vehicles.

i'm searching ebay's broncos right now looking for mirrors

EDIT: no luck on ebay. google turned up lots of articles talking about them, but no images.

any idea if this is something we can do to our trucks without a lot of modification? although...finding the parts could prove the hardest part it seems.

o, and i looked on LMC and they didn't have them

in the manual they have two wires to the mirror piece that connects to the part that blinks.

these are probably a ford part and seeing that not many bronco sports were made, i would say it will be near impossible to try to find these parts.

edit: 1996 Ford Bronco: As an industry first, Broncos got optional futuristic mirrors that displayed turn-signal pointers in the glass surface. Bronco was replaced by the New Ford Expedition for 1997.

i would not want turn signals in my mirrors.

the dash ones are enough to get my attention and if the person behind me can't see the rear light blinking too bad.
