Ford F-150 Heated and Auto Dimming Mirror Glass Replacement (2009-2014)

[@f2cmadmaxx]

To remove mirror glass - use a flat tip screwdriver in the 8 and 4 positions, insert into the funnelled guide and twist.

[@redonKiLaus]

Great tip - next time I need to pull mine I will try that out! Thanks for watching!

[@bshepp4422]

Awesome tip. Less than 5 m from start to finish. B

[@mathewrusso1646]

Nvm. Figured it out… this is a life changer…

[@bigbrando5240]

If anyone could explain what the 8 and 4 positions are. I would appreciate it.

[@f2cmadmaxx]

@@bigbrando5240 The 8 o'clock and 4 o'clock positions.

Thanks good video. I wonder though if the 2 wires are used for the auto dim feature or heating. I need to replace my power folding housing and almost every replacement part does not feature auto dimming glass. I can’t figure out if that is a feature of the glass or needs a power supply. If I buy the replacement without auto dim will it be missing the wire leads…

[@redonKiLaus]

Great question and one that I don't know the answer to unfortunately...I don't have a wiring diagram and frankly, I didn't pay much attention to the mirror when I had it off to figure out which function was which. I do believe that it's powered though...again, not familiar with the specific technology that this auto dim glass is based on. Thanks for watching!

[@djcbanks]

For any future comment readers, the black clip you pulled off is for the auto dimming feature. The black and green wire goes to the heating element.

[@vsphotography8]

@@djcbanks Do you know if I can replace my auto dimming mirror with a non-auto dimming mirror without having any error codes?

[@djcbanks]

@@vsphotography8 yes. I’ve replaced my auto dimming with non auto dimming mirrors personally on my own vehicle and it won’t throw any codes.

[@zahnstanton9689]

If you want to make a video of how to take off the old mirror and install the new one, why do to totally skip over how to remove the old mirror?????

[@reubinthornton]

useless not to tell how you removed the old mirror. All you said was "it was harder than I thought".

[@michaeljmctifue]

😂

[@sheilachubak2197]

Thank you very much it was exactly as you said and i changed it myself.

[@cfish6354]

Can I reuse the old heating element? I bought a mirror off Amazon without one

[@redonKiLaus]

Potentially, but I'm not sure. Thanks for watching!

[@DatDe76]

Is there a link to where you purchased the mirror? I am having the hardest time finding the auto dimming mirror

[@dancornish3055]

Ebay, there pretty cheap

[@IAmXBomb]

Same here auto dimming is hard to find

[@rickfieseler390]

Was the mirror that you purchased new or used? What year is your truck? What tool did you use to get the old mirror to unsnap from the adjustable mount? Thanks in advance.

[@redonKiLaus]

It was "used" but showed up in like new condition including labels...open box if I had to guess myself. Mine's a 2011, and I just used some plastic pry tools as well as a screwdriver to get the mirror to unsnap. I know there are some skilled folks out there that can get it off without breaking it, but I definitely destroyed my already-cracked one doing the swap. Thanks for watching!

[@laithayoob3060]

I’ve been trying to find same mirror but I couldn’t find one where should I look

[@redonKiLaus]

Ford directly, or eBay - they are often in and out of stock/backorder. Thanks for watching!

[@brandongodinez7907]

Any idea where I can find the mirror housing? I can’t seem to find a replacement. It’s got a white cap, auto dimming, heated, power folding, puddle light.

[@redonKiLaus]

Ford, eBay (new or used), even Amazon may have them. Prepainted will be tough, and finding a fully loaded one will be tough as well. Thanks for watching!

[@brandongodinez7907]

@@redonKiLaus I found one and swapped it out, but now the glass seems to be stuck permanently in autodim mode but I don't see any cracks and all the connections are good. Any ideas?

[@redonKiLaus]

@@brandongodinez7907 Not sure, unless you have an issue with the sunlight sensor (in cabin on dash) or something else related to the control system for auto dim.

[@mycobg3111]

Where did you buy it and how much?

[@redonKiLaus]

It was an eBay purchase, I believe around $150-200. Thanks for watching!

[@InfamousEggNug]

This part does not have the auto dimming. I found the seller on eBay who used this video in the item description. If it were auto dimming the glass would have a yellow tint to it

[@redonKiLaus]

Mine does (at least the one I bought and showed in the video) - no yellow tint but does auto dim. There may be multiple tints for the glass like some Japanese auto manufacturers have - not sure. Thanks for watching!

[@JB-yf1ke]

I found a replacement glass for my F150 that is heated but it doesn’t have the dimmer. Do you know where I can find it beside the ford garage for $500?

[@redonKiLaus]

eBay is where I got mine when they were on backorder. My normal parts supplier for OEM is Sunrise Ford Parts, they have the best prices I've found by far. Thanks for watching!

[@MaddSweetGT500]

Good video, any thoughts on the puddle lights? I replaced mine ... A few times but they still down work.

[@redonKiLaus]

Sounds like a wiring issue - could be mirror harness or door harness. That's where I'd check, assuming fuses are all good related to those lights. Thanks for watching!

[@raecallies2642]

Where did you find the glass for this? I can’t find the one with the correct attachments.

[@redonKiLaus]

eBay was the only place at the time due to backorder - might be the same again now. Thanks for watching!

[@rebadaddy]

Thanks...this really helped

[@redonKiLaus]

Thanks for watching!

[@paulpiazza3655]

What is the part number for the glass you installed?

[@robnation2475]

BL3Z-17K707-E or BL3Z 17K707 E

[@brayannava2339]

Where can I get the mirrors at?

[@redonKiLaus]

eBay is the only place I've found them lately. Thanks for watching!

[@brianBZ1]

Ford wanted $460 for replacement just for the glass. Napa wanted $350 I got the exact replacement from Amazon for 35 bucks with the heating element.

[@MrSantiagoSC]

Just bought one of the dealership for 34

[@redonKiLaus]

Nice, thanks for watching!

[@redonKiLaus]

@@MrSantiagoSC Non-heated and non-dimming glass I assume? Retail for the higher trim versions is a couple hundred bucks, or thereabouts. Thanks for watching!
