I installed these on my 2006 today, they fit perfectly and everything works. Truck is an 06’ King Ranch FX4. Kinda cool to know that they will for sure work on 2006 trucks and maybe 04’ & 05’s as well. 100% happy with the Morrt and would buy again.
I finally installed mine...I love them, the fit and finish is better than I could hope for. The switchback function is awesome! Thanks boost auto!

What year truck do you have? Do these mirrors look too big for the truck or are they proportional? I have a 2013 supercrew

I bought a pair of tow mirrors very similar to this for my 09 F150. The main plug went right in. There is a second plug though. The second plug is a blue and greenish blue wire. I don't have anywhere to plug it in, and I think those wires are for auxilery running lights and maybe parking lights.

Our mirrors only have on wire in the secondary connector and it should be blue. If you have two wires it sounds like the mirrors are not from us so we would be unfamiliar with what the wires are for. We would recommend reaching out to whomever the mirrors were purchased from for guidance.
I noticed that towered the end of the video it's a different vehicle. The door boot is different when you're putting it all back together

Instead of running the wire through the firewall out to the headlamp, could you just wire it right off of the wire from the Headlamp Switch?

What would be the best method to get the mirror defrost feature offered on the mirrors working, when my truck didn't come with the option for heated mirrors? Tap into the rear defrost maybe?
@boostautoparts

It should be plug and play with the rear window defrost. Ford pre-wires the doors for it if the truck has rear window defrost, even if the original mirrors didn't have that feature.

For 2013/2014 trucks originally with the square head style tow mirrors it would be plug and play. I'd recommend giving our team a call at 765-831-2830 and ordering over the phone and clarifying this with them, as that's a pretty odd truck and we want to make sure we wire them for you to be plug and play.

You can do it many different ways. In this instance, we used a butt connector and put two wires in one side and then another length out the other.
