    **SOLD**

    For sale: Brand New, in box, Power Folding Tow Mirrors - $260 +shipping (they sell for almost $400)


    Explanation/Disclaimer:
    I bought new power folding tow mirrors for my 2013 Platinum. Upon installation and the passenger's side mirror was blowing a fuse when I tried to use it. The company sent me a replacement pair (these only come in pairs evidently). I installed the replacement passenger side mirror and everything worked fine.

    Upon removal of the defective passenger side mirror I saw that some internal mirror wiring was out of place and causing it to get caught in the mirror mount - causing a short. I have temporarily patched the wiring and tested passenger side mirror - everything works fine. Driver's side is also brand new in box but opened to test and ensure it functioned properly.

    These are aftermarket (non-OEM, not Toyota) mirrors. Company stated they did not need mirrors returned so I am selling them to cover my time and cost of troubleshooting and replacing the (once) defective mirror.

    Features include*:

    Power
    Heated
    Smoked Lens Turn Signal / marker light**
    Clearance Light
    Power Folding
    Mirror includes memory provision
    -Memory function will work for models with that option
    -Upgrade - This feature is not available on factory tow mirrors
    Telescoping - Manual operation

    *Not all features available on all Tundra models - BUT everything (except below ** statement) works on my Platinum and should also come standard on Limited and 1794 models. SR5 models will gain some features but not all without wiring (especially power folding).

    **It is known that marker light does not work with Platinum and 1794 trims (but does work on SR5) - side turn signals works fine.

    To clarify...there is nothing wrong with these mirrors other than some minor wiring repair needed. Also, I experience no vibration issues with my set of mirrors. I think this is a common misconception about the aftermarket tow mirrors.
