​@@ProjectTimeGarageTHANK YOU Mr PTG.. I have to say... Your tutorial has me confident in tackling this upgrade... Is there a way to add led puddle lights and ditch light to these mirrors..

About time someone else does these mirrors on a 2000 everyone wants to do the newer style but I want this style I just think they look best on my truck

I think they fit the look of the truck pretty well too.

As only a few of us know the 99-01 F250/350 didn't come wired for the Heat and Turn/Park indicator in the truck. You have to build two custom wiring harnesses for those two functions to work. Once built it can be installed in the dash between the doors. I've already built a prototype for it and should be installing it this week. I took my turn signals off the funny Grey connector on top of the steering column under the clamshells. I did have to pull ignition key tumbler to get the top clamshell off. I used the LTGRN/WHT & the WHT/LTBLU for turn signals. The Parking light I used the brown wire on the Headlamp Grey connector. Heat power I pulled from the ignition switch BLACK/LTGRN wire. I used a 7.5 amp fuse in line with a power switch with an indicator light to power it. On a side note I chose the BLACK/LTGRN because it's hot only with the key on, that way if I forgot the battery doesn't drain down. Best Wishes n Blessings. Keith Noneya

Former master ASE HD Trucks n Auto n DOT Certified n Cat Field Mechanic. I'd give anything to just be haf normal again. Waaaaaa. Got some CA Auto heat n turn/park leds mirrors. No wiring diagram nor nothing, but came with greasy fingerprints yet didn't look like anyone mounted them prior. I should've sent them back but it's a pia living out in the woods. Anyhow, thanks for the video sir. I did my ball joints n hubs n warn hubs added n brakes. Probably didn't need ujts or ball joints but I was in there so I did em all. My truck sat for 8 yrs n red squirrels had the engine valley packed tight n wrecked everything on hood n intake ect n mice inside cus some dumbass left dogfood in a bag. Only has 78k on her n been a awesome truck. I use to know my guns good too, my HK wannabe MP5 is my sweetheart n ain't Nobody taking that girl Ever,,, You ever use any borescopes? As I been thinking about that Snap-on bk8500 with the 180* probe. I have used the autels n a cat flir but both been beat up n once thru the fan of a D11. Wireless connection is my choice for the future atleast. The batteries corroded n messed up the controller so threw em out. Guess I best get, thanks again. Ty

I know this is a old vid but had a question, i put 08 mirrors on my 2000 with the lights id assume the wiring is the same. Haven't run the light wiring yet. What would cause both mirrors not to turn right? Being as driver mirror won't tilt inward and pass wont turn outward? They came with adapters that only have 3 wires for them. This was suppose to be "plug n play". Thanks for any input

it does. So far it's been about 3 years and all is still well. Heat works fine.

Sucks p.o. cut the wiring, I took my '05 and put '12 mirrors with power fold and extend on, I had to make adapters to connect to the factory mirror harness then added for the new stuff.... the '12 mirrors have I think it was 10 and 12 wires in them (pass had more). Got it working...but the door switch won't close down, too many wires trying to occupy the same space behind the panel due to the added switches.

I just installed these on our 2006 today. Install was from scratch because truck had no power. I drew up my schematics the best I could. Heated mirrors work, lights work, but something is not right with the power mirrors. One of the contacts fried on the switch. Fuse did not blow, but mirrors do not move. There are 3 wires to each mirror. I am scratching my head bad. I double checked my work and if diagrams are right I dont understand why the switch fried. I had to order the switch, and am going to have to wait for another but do not want to fry another. No idea what could not be right. I will mention I do not recommend wiring the mirror heaters to ignition. The elements will not last long. Max runtime is usually no more than 15 minutes unless it is cold and wet. The elements overheat and burn apart
