Disassembling F150 & Super Duty Mirrors (New Style Mirrors)

[@jimmckeown746]

Thank you for this video. It allowed me to replace a hit and run on my 2019 truck which after paying for the mirrors myself, all the savings of anything really helped. You guys saved me a lot of money and also gave me a sense of autonomy in this situation. Again, thank you very much.

[@russells.9844]

Appreciate the time to do the video!!!! You just saved me from much frustration on replacing the full 2017 Superduty Mirror and topcap..

[@waltermila]

Thanks for the informative videos! You guys should have millions of subscribers with all the Ford owners out there. I subbed!

[@michaelwood5519]

Thanks for posting this! I've had a rattle in my driver's mirror since I bought my truck. Now I know how to get in there and find what's rattling. It might even be the glass itself, not sure yet.

[@greysonwilliams633]

Is the front piece removable as well?

[@PrecisionRetrofits]

Yes

[@digitalshackonthelane]

Is it possible to just get back covers for these mirrors? I have a small crack and an additional small puncture.. Everything miraculously in the mirror still works. I am trying to see if after-market back caps (upper and lowers) can be found.

[@paulwise34]

Thank you great instructions

[@bucknertarsney7674]

Great video. Thank you.

[@bobbambace9580]

Made the removal soo much easier thanks

[@PrecisionRetrofits]

Glad to help as much as we can!, New videos coming soon. Stay tuned!

I thought this vid was going to show the extend motor replacement. My 2008 F-350 driver side mirror will fold and glass will tilt, etc., but when trying to extend I can hear the motor run but no movement. Must be a gear stripped or has come unfastened from a shaft? Pass side mirror works fine.

[@ErickGarcia-bn5lp]

Same on mine

[@killerbgaming294]

I would love to see a video on this repair also.

[@codydent9097]

What about the henge part of the mirror? I’m trying to take them apart for paint.

[@BRAAAPOLOGY]

Did you ever figure out how to do this?

[@darrellsego1155]

I need a video on how to disassemble the opposite end of the 2018 F-350 folding mirror (the hinged folding end) in order to remove and replace the folding motor. Thanks!

[@BRAAAPOLOGY]

Did you ever figure this out? I might try and buy a broken mirror assembly and see if I can tear it down. I’m looking to mount cameras and need to figure this out before blindly drilling holes.

[@darrellsego1155]

@@BRAAAPOLOGY Yes, I pretty much figured it out. The manufacturer of the replacement gears and motors for the mirror fold function provided a document with description and photos. However, there were/are a few parts that need better detailed instructions. But, I have pretty much figured it out. Right now, since I am just experimenting (I'm a retired electrical engineer from GE), I'm setting up a 12VDC power supply and have wired up a polarity reversal switch (for fold-in and fold-out) to test the unit. I am in the process of identifying the wire colors for all of the mirror motors so that I can test functionality of all mirror functions (fold-in and fold-out, extend and retract towing mirrors, and main mirror up/down and side-to-side). I got the correct part number off of the main mirror connector and requested and received samples of the female pins from TE Connectivity so that I can connect to the connector pins without damaging them. If you need or would like help or information on what I have learned later on, I'd be glad to share that with you.

[@theloudstrongpodcast8362]

Where can I buy the switch back lights?

[@PrecisionRetrofits]

You can buy them through us, hit us up on instagram @precisionretrofits or give us a call!

[@marcmohr5093]

Has anyone taken this style mirror apart and shortened the two adjustable extension arms? Would like to loose an inch on each side.

[@thesneak281]

You ever do this or find an answer? Would look so much better on an f150 this way

[@josearredondo2251]

Can the plastic over the two extension arms be replaced?

[@EricduToit]

I have the same problem/question - did you ever determine if it could be?

[@josearredondo2251]

@@EricduToit I actually was able to replace all plastic from one mirror to another. Didn't film any video. But if you take your time it is possible.

[@michaelwood5519]

Subbed!

[@themodifiedlife2774]

Can the extension arm part disassemble to for painting or do u just Paint that as all one piece?

[@codycoombs272]

Did you ever find the answer to this question I’m curious as well

[@mikgto68]

hey i have a question...can you get a camera on the bottom of that mirror where you can run the wire through the mirror to inside door? just installed the boost auto mirrors and i was thinking about running the turn signal cameras

[@BRAAAPOLOGY]

Did you ever figure out how to do this?

[@mikgto68]

​@@BRAAAPOLOGY no they were very tight where the plug is on the inside mirror and I didn't want to hack them up being they were brand new at the time lol

[@nickl1773]

How much for the headlights on your f-150

[@robmor1586]

Can the front plastic face plate be removed to? (I cracked the corner of my front face plate)

[@digitalshackonthelane]

I am trying to find that out too.
