Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Both Mirror Cracked - Swapping?
Jun 9, 2013
So both the mirrors on my new truck are cracked. Driver side got hit, and the passenger side just doesn't respond, might just be a power thing. Anyways I'm wondering if there is any hassle to switch to a different style of superduty mirror? The 08 ones are really nice, if I can find a set for a decent price. Mine are just the basic ones, they look like half ton mirrors. I'm pretty sure they would just bolt in, and wiring really is no issue for me either. Just wondering if would encounter anything that might be an issue.

I'm thinking of swapping my tow mirrors from my 04 F-250 for a set off an 08. My truck currently has manual windows and mirrors. What would I need to wire up the power and heated mirrors from an 08 and change my windows to auto while I'm at it?

I am wanting to swap out my mirrors from the adjustable "egg-shaped" superduty on my 2004 to the newer style square type mirrors. I like the newer style mirrors, because i drive an F-550 at work and it has those mirrors on it and it makes towing and seeing in general a heck of a lot better and easier. The question is, Is this conversion possible? Will the newer style mirrors fit on an older truck like mine?

I have never liked that the headlights are below the turn signals on the newer super duties. Has anyone swapped the positions so the headlights are on top? Will be ordering a 2016 next week and this would be one mod I would like to do. Not having the truck yet, I have not been able to do any investigation on what this would take or if it is even possible.

I know that this horse has been beaten to death but after searching all the posts and web. I have recently aquired an overhead console and wiring harness from a 2000 F250 and want to install it in my 2001 F250 which did not come with one. The connector behind the passenger kickplate is different so I assume I'll be doing some wire splicing. After reading all the previous posts, I'm unable to find old bird. Apparently he's not around anymore. Looking for the template/wiring instructions for this retrofit?

What all would be involved in swapping from regular ac controls to automatic climate control like the lariats have on a 2015 xlt superduty?

Got an 03 f250 supercab, and looking to get rid of the old front bench seat for 2 regular front seats and installing a big middle console, will this be kinda hard? I got in my truck now the driver seat is seperate from the 2 seater bench seat and it has the flip down middle console to where you can flip it up for somebody to sit in the middle or flip it down for the cup holders etc.. I want to get rid of that and just have the 2 front seats and an big middle console. I think some of the 1998-2003 f150 come with this set up

I have a V-10 in my Y2K F-250. Under the throttle body there is an elbow on a vacuum line that is badly cracked. I went to parts store and bought a heater line that fit both ends (different sizes) but isnt the exact angle of the original. It fixed the hissing vacuum leak but now it is running pretty rough. Doesnt seem to be pinched but it's definitely different. The poor performance during acceleration wasnt a problem before but is very noticeable now. Could the line being different effect the performance?

My '08 S.D. (5.4) has a cracked exhaust manifold, which I've heard is fairly common. Crappy Ford design. The local dealer has them in stock (imagine that, just like the 'non-bad' coil caps from some years ago, that they were instructed by Ford to keep at least 10 on stock at all times) for the passenger and driver's side. What are the part numbers?

I was just in the middle of doing the V Code leaf spring swap and noticed a broke part where the u-bolts sit and what looks to be attached to the trac bar. The piece is broken in half and I am not sure how this happened or when. The piece is welded to the axle.

I hit the trailer tow mirror on a column parking in my parking garage downtown...
The Orange Reflector on the integrated turn signal is cracked. The black housing has a little crack too, but is so minor I could just leave it.
I don't trust the parts man at the stealership...
Are the orange reflector and the black mirror housing all 1 piece? How to remove that outer housing to replace it?

my 2000 f550 master cylinder reservoir plastic is cracked from vibration and it would be good to know if it can be replaced separately than having to purchase a new complete unit.

Got the new truck on Monday and I am trying to figure it all out
The mirror defrost comes on with the rear window defrost, my question here is does the defrost image on the mirror light up when on?

I got a 08 ford f450 sd in the shop with a cracked abd broken bolt in the driver's side exhaust manifold, any tips tricks on getting it out,I have everything loose but I can't for the life of me get the egr cooler out of the way to access the top bolts to the manifold so I can replace the manifold, or a link to a service manual would be great.

In the last 15k miles, I've replaced the led lights on my driver side mirror twice already, and come to see this morning: they are out again. The turn signal LEDs still work, but the parking lights don't work anymore. Passenger side is fine.

got a quick question, i have the 1aauto 2008+ mirrors on my truck. How do you take the mirrors apart? When it rains or i wash the truck the bottom of the mirror fills up with water, and it slowly drips all over my doors when i drive the truck and when i open or shut the doors the water sloshes around and again gets all over my door. I want to remove the bottom piece (if it comes off) and drill two drain holes, i would do it on the mirror still but im afraid id hit the wires or something for the heated/power functions

I have an early 99 F250 that I'm putting 08+ mirrors on. I'm not real sure what year they are, but no wiring diagrams I can find match up. See, my mirrors have 12 wires. All diagrams I find have 10. The colors don't match either. I wanna wire these up but I can't decipher the wiring.

I have a 2016 F250 XL and I want to put smaller outside rear view mirrors on her. I thought I can't be the first person to want to do this but repeated searches haven't turned up a bit of information.
I have the stock XL black plastic tow mirrors. They are manual extension and manual fold in. No heat, no lights, nothing. I want to go to a smaller, non-towing mirror like comes on stock F150's, chrome would be OK. In about 18 months I will want to go back to my trailer towing setup. I need to be narrow for a while.

These are the non-towing mirrors. The truck was pretty well used when I got it; one tow mirror was broken, the glass in the other wouldn't move when I used the switch.
I found a set of power non-towing mirror locally and installed them. They dont work. I tested the switch and the wires at the connectors and I am getting 12v to the mirrors.
So I was thinking maybe it was a ground problem???? Then I took a 12v test light and probed the mirror wires at the connector (clip connected to ground) and then the mirrors slowly moved. I remove the test light and they don't work. Now I am confused.
