Power Mirrors for XL owners anyone?
Hey guys, 
It's been quite sometime since I've been here, being married isn't easy
I was looking for an upgrade for my F150 and since I'm towing quite sometimes,
Now ebay is full of random non-branded mirrors which I presume they are Ok and not bad, but I've read on other forms that installing power foldable mirrors on XLT requires a switch, relays and grounding. My question is for an XL?
● Is there a certain way to wire the power options and the indicators as well as the optional puddle lights? Or i can just wire the new mirrors with whatever wire i find (just for powering them )
● if i decided to go all electric mirrors, i will need that lil adjustment **** and drill it in door's panel and TADA I'm done? Or new harness, switches etcs are required?
● Is there in the market such a thing called "a direct bolt-on towing mirrors for XL where adjusting the glass is done by hand" ?
Cheers guys, i know I'm asking a lot :-/

I put these tow mirrors on my xl. They have 0 power options, but you adjust the glass by hand and the whole unit can be folded in and goes back to the same position. They were about $120 for the pair new. But I got a good deal.

sorry as i haven't been here for quite sometime,
so no power options what so ever, no puddle lights? i need those honestly,
i was thinking of buying powered mirrors and getting the harness/module and other things to make a power mirrors work on XL model... is it possible?
