I wish I was brave enough to attempt…you made it look easy. Thanks.

You sir have incredible patience,,,,,I’m going out to duct tape mine back on. Thank you

Thank you sir ! I have been waiting years for a in depth video to do this!

I have a Trail Ridge mirror that is not working correctly, so I watched this video all the way through to see if the procedures were similar. I can see why it took so long to repair. Kodos to this gentleman for taking the time to video this project. Looks like there are plenty of opportunities to break tabs during the process. If you start breaking tabs then rebuilding the mirrors may have been in vain. I know this gentleman was not a professional and there were times were he repeated himself and it made the video longer than it should have been, but again thank you for your time and the video.

Great info. Tks. But the poster in the background was a great bonus.

Glad you liked it! Couple of my favorite girls.

I need to do this project for a 2013. I started collecting videos on how to do it a couple years ago. All prior videos left key bits of info out of the explanation. This is the best explanation on the topic. Thank you. I'm saving this one to the top of my collection on the topic.

Glad I could be of some help. The products are excellent, and working great in my installation. Good luck.

Great video!

Thank you for the video John. I have ordered the parts and will be doing both of mine when they come in. My passenger side has been broken for about 7 years!! Great job brother!

excellant viedo thank you

Thanks for sharing. I’m about to do this to my 13’ F-250 tomorrow. Wish me luck.

Thank You!!!

Thank you!!!!!🙏🏻

Thank you for your advise. I have the kits but have not installed. I did not know how to start this project.

Could really use a pic of how the wiring is ran. Having a hard time getting the triangle cover back on. I had to unwrap it, had 5 cut/broken wires deep inside the harness

Hey John. Thanks for the video. Trying to decide if this will fix my mirrors. I have a lot play in them

It is nice to see a Talbert driving a Ford! All the Talbert's here in Arkansas are Chevy fans! LOL Thanks for the great video!

You bet! Got me laughing. I can't be responsible for my kinfolk in Arkansas!

how did you get the end of the telescope off that holds the actual mirror piece, so you could slide the triangle trim piece off? I cannot figure that part out.

Thanks for posting this Does the mirror head just slide off the arms after all the plastic is removed. You didn't show how it comes off

Around the 16:15 mark I explain how to do it. When you are at that stage you will see how it comes apart.

@@johntalbert8227 no you didn't - watched that, no help, when you said "unfortunately" at 16:55, everything was apart and no help at 16:15 for that either. I see below someone had to "electrically engage the slide motor to get the head off, did you have to do that? I have all plastic pieces off, top and bottom, and triangular trim piece loose but captive on the two arms, can't get the end off the slides.

Do the 2 tow arm align themselves when you activate the auto fold?

I believe yes. I didn't don anything but cycle the mirror in and out a couple of time.

@@johntalbert8227 Ok thanks. I got it done. My motors where fine. My issue is I had a ripped wire. Also to stide the mirror of the tracks I used a battery and some wire and touch the motor and I was able to slide it of the tracks and did the same thing on reverse and slide it back on. Thank you your video helped a lot.

my RH mirror was caught and forced all the way forward. The fold motor works but the mirror doesn't stay at the driving position. It folds out all the way forward. Any ideas? Ive tried resetting / re-synch with no joy. Really miss that function but I cant justify $1400. Somewhere I saw someone say the incident broke some sort of pin.

I would just follow the video and tear your mirror apart. Can't say what the issue is, but when you get it apart you will find out what has broken and may be able to fix it. Good luck. Sorry I didn't see your comment earlier.

Does anyone know if the process on a 2021 is pretty similar?

@pooleo8

Very similar. I've got my 18 tow mirrors torn down. A few things were slightly different, but same ideas apply. Take extra caution/pics of the harness as you pull the triangle cover off.

I can see Why they only sell the Whole assembly, with age, the plastic will become brittle and all those snap and clips will break, and there are no replacement parts....Better if you want to keep the Truck, replace the whole thing, if that is too much, by a truck that doesn't have all that plastic rickey tickey made parts (if you can).....
