New mirrors

Im getting pretty tired of these mickey mouse ear mirrors and im thinking about getting some XLT mirrors to replace them. I have found several places selling them online but im not sure which ones will fit. Some of them say they will only fit 97-02. is that right? did they change the mirrors in 03?

I believe expy and screw mirrors are different from the rest of the F-150's, but other than that, I'm pretty sure any '97-'03 mirror will fit your truck. On a side note, I bought a set of aftermarket (Chinese) XLT mirrors for my XL. While they looked pretty good, I had to modify them to get them to fit well, and they shook like mad while driving. I ended up getting a set of used Ford XLT mirrors which were much, much better.

You may have luck in the classifieds here. I bought my set from a member who was upgrading to towing mirrors. I got a great deal on it! Look around, you never know what your gonna find.

Yeah, I'd be careful with cheap repos, I bought one a while ago and the plastic was cheap, and the chrome cap was shameful.
