If you need the entire assembly, you can get one reasonable on E-Bay. It's not OEM, but they're pretty good. I have one on and you have to look close to know the difference.

If you just need the upper mirror part. I have one laying around here somewhere.

E-bay is your best bet, I got a set of telescoping electic mirrors for $165.00 brand new in the box from an after market dealer. Now if you have turn signals in them they're a little more salty on the price.

All I really need is the plastic cover that covers the area where the bolts and stuff are located. The actual mirror and housing are ok.
Thanks

I went to The best automotive grilles on earth! and paid $157 for the power heated with lights no paint mirror. I installed it and it matches my 2006 F-350 lariat perfectly.
Hope this helps

Hate to suggest it, but have you tried the dealership? Since you only need the cover, it might be cheaper than buying a whole new aftermarket mirror.

I dont think the part he is needing is serviced seperatley. Pretty sure just the cover on the back of the glass area is the only servicable part.

My buddy just received two towing mirrors he ordered from Rock Auto(forum sponsor). The quality is excellent, shipping was fast. They are for a 2007 F350, heated mirror with turn signal, telescoping, black, I think they were around $150.00 apiece

I tried the stealership and they only sell the whole mirror or that's at least what they told me.

Ask them to pull the 'collision catalog' if you just need certain parts. I needed just the outer clamshell - had it in 2 days.

Read my previous post......this "clamshell" is the only servicable part. What he wants is not.
