Mirror upgrade

Just received my new mirrors from Partstrain.com(FD79EL-FD79ER) $237 for both mirrors and shipping.Only one problem though,after checking them out on line I called customer service to make sure they were the ones with blinkers and they reassured me they were she gave me an order number.I went online and ordered them the next day with the number she gave me and when they finally got to my house THEY DON'T HAVE BLINKERS IN THEM!!!!!!I called customer service and they told me "of course they don't, that's what it say's in the description" really thats why I called to make sure in the first place! After that she said that they don't have them with blinkers.

STOP!!!!!!!!!!! if your mirrors dont have the signals in them, the back does not come off....... they are a different mirror housing. oh, btw, i have a brand new l/s chrome cover that is a factory chrome cover with signals if you want it. the chrome ones are over $130 each.

na, just the covers for the handles. they do sell some full billet handles but they are like $350 a pair. as for the mirrors, i only am selling the back chrome cover for the left side. i paid $127.78 for it and then worked out something else and i dont have to replace it. its still in the box and sealed up.

i have seen aftermarket tow mirrors with blinkers and heat on ebay however there is two styles of plug (a round and rectangle plug) depending on the year of your truck. They are about 400-450 per set but be sure to get the ones that fold both ways
