Power/Heated/Signal Tow Mirrors

My wife bought them for me for Christmas. She ordered them for a 2005 cause the dealer didn't show them for a 2003. They bolted right up and pluged right in. Took about 20 minutes to install them, but they're paint to match, so I don't have the turn signals put on yet.

I smashed in the side of my truck a few weeks ago, and my horse did a tap dance on my tailgate. So I'm gonna get them pained black this week when they do the repairs on my truck. I'll post some pics then for you folks. Especially you ZAAIRMAN! Since you like to dog on my truck all the time!

I also bogged it down for the first time ever, ON CHRISTMAS, in a lady's yard, 150 miles from the farm!!! We tried all day to get it out, with trucks, ****** ropes, small tractors etc. It finally took a Freightliner semi wrecker to winch it out. It was on the frame. It drug the wrecker until I put the truck in reverse. (he tried to pull it out in neutral).

Yeah, it bent my steps up a little, but I don't really care, I'll probably just take em off. I'm over 6'4" tall so I don't need them anyway.

The way you drive your truck you best keep 'em on ~ otherwise other things will get 'bent'

Looks great, I remember you showing off that truck, and I also thought it would look ten times better with tow mirrors.

Glad to see you're not being easy on it!

But I don't really care for the headlights on the 05+. I like the ones I have. I wonder if I could just put in the grille only.....

Made it in ms paint. Sorry for the bad quality pic. How does it look?

If you like the 03-07 mirrors you'd love the 08+ ones. The spot mirrors are HUGE on them and makes a world of difference when towing. I hate even driving around without a trailer without them on my truck.

I know... I didn't know that the 08+ ones would fit on my truck until after my wife already bought the 03-07 ones..
