2003 king ranch mirror replacement

I will hopefully be buying an 03 king ranch Screw in the near future. I love everything about them except the mirrors. They are small and when it comes to towing and backing up trailers they seem a bit small.

I'm know this has been talked about a million times but I cannot find a concrete answer. Would 2008 expy or Navigator fit without having to make any mods? Would the turn signal and power still work?

Any input, opinions, advice, or photos are appreciated

I know it bolts in just fine, can't remember if the connector is different or not.

I've done this mod. The bolt pattern is identical, so they bolt right up, but the connection is different. You'll have to wire everything if you want them to work. I cut the ends off of the stock mirrors and replaced the expy mirror plugs for the motor controls and turn signals. To get the puddle lights to work, I ran wires to the interior lights in the door. I have full function, except I didn't hook up the heat. Also, the motor controls are backwards for some reason.

I can help you out with what wires do what if you decide to tackle this. You'll be so much happier with these. I took the risk and tried it because I tow quite a bit, and I could never go back to the stock mirrors.
