Thanks,

off of ur 2006? this thread is in regards to pwr/htd towing mirrors for 2ND GENERATION trucks. unless i am missing something, the mirrors that i found is to defeat the purpose of us no longer having to swap parts to create our towing mirrors.

Another point to consider if anyone decides to use the mounting from their 2nd Gen and some later 3rd Gen heads is that DC changed OEM vendors and the newer 3rd Gens won't mate up to the 2nd Gen mounts. A TDR member posted this after finding out the hard way.

So has anyone actually mounted a set of these mirrors on their 2nd generation to make sure that everything works and fits like it is supposed too??

Certainly if the bases will mount to the 2nd gen 24 valve they will do so to the 12 valve. The doors didn't change. But the wiring may be different.

Does the mirror adjustment switch control both mirrors? If so, how do you switch from one mirror to the other?

Thanks,
Bill

I think the wiring is the same, except they may have not had heated mirrors back then. you rotate the knob left/right to control separate mirrors.

The factory switch is a joystick for adjustment, for left or right side you turn the knob for left or right.

I second this question. I would really like to know if someone has received a set of these and actually bolted them up. Thanks.

Cipa mirrors

A friend of mine has a set of Cipas on his truck and hates them. I got in his truck and saw why. The right side one is so low that you only see half of the mirror. And the other problem of course looking like he got them off a Ferd

Actually only about 10-15% of the bottom/inside of the mirror is blocked by the door when they're retracted. Even so, there's still significantly more useable glass showing than the factory mirror. And when they're extended all the mirror is visible/useable.

4 1/2 years with my CIPAs, still solid, no problems, excellent coverage.
