Mirror ??

I have a 2004 CC SD Diesel. I wa sinvolved in an accident that someone side swiped me and my mirror got all smashed up so i was looking around for what i can do.

I found a decent deal on a set off an 09 F350, my question is:

Will they bolt right up and plug right in with no issues?

Thank you for your help,

Rob

I bought them already for $485 shipped. They are brand new and have never been mounted on a truck. And they are OEM FORD.

Anyone know how the wiring works?

Do a search because it has been talked about a lot recently. If I find a thread, I will post it. I understand that they bolt right up, but the controls are backwards for the in and out function. I wish I could help more, but I haven't been lucky enough to do the swap yet.

Hey MistaBob. How bad are your mirrors?? Are they Towing Mirrors?? I have a friend that have the same situation as you. He is searching for some parts to see if he's able to repair his mirrors. Please e-mail me if you want to get rid of your trashed mirrors. flechaluis@yahoo.com

Yes i have the tow mirrors that are heated with the heated glass. The driver side one needs glass. The housing is cracked (insurance paid to have it replaced) but if your friend wants to put a couple dabs of superglue on it im sure it would be fine. I can take pictures of them if he is interested.

Let me know what you think

I looked on ebay for weeks and weeks. There is a guy selling sets for $800 his web site is dfuser.com but i didnt want to pay $800 so i just waited for a set to get listed on ebay and i jumped on them. I didnt want any immitation crap so i waited for an OEM set to go up for sale.

They were $485.000 w/ free shipping and it was $8.00 for S&H insurance. I cant wait to install them. My truck is getting painted next week and i will be installing the new mirrors, a new front bumper and my train horns after i get it back..

Do a search in the Super Duty forum up top. I've done the convesion just for the bigger 08 mirror, piece of cake.

Off topic here but how much are you paying to have your truck repainted if you don't mind my asking? Also who is doing it?

If anyone needs to replace a mirror we carry a pretty big selection of them for the F-Series trucks.

Ford Truck Mirrors
