Extendable Trailer Tow Mirrors

Looking for Extendable Trailer Tow Mirrors for my 2003 F-150 SuperCrew Lariat. I can't find any anywhere. Anyone know of some that will fit. Thanks

Do you mean like power extendable? I don't know which ones of those are good, but I do know that that CPIA add-on mirrors are very good. Easy to put on and remove in under a minute. RJays has them for a fair price. Great price on Prodigy too if you need a brake controller.

I have tried looking at the **** ones already, no luck. There seems to be nothing to fit this. They would be the power mirrors I am looking for. Very frustrating

I have a set of Lucerix Xmount mirrors (same things as the **** and Bestop) on my truck. I installed them a couple days ago and have yet to really drive it a whole lot, but they seem to be pretty good so far. They are extendable, but not power extendable. The glass though IS power so they act just like the factory mirrors. They somewhat resemble the Superduty mirrors. I will see if I can grab a picture of the truck sometime today. Shefenacker (same company who makes the mirrors for the SD) makes another trailer tow mirror. They are extendable (not power extendable), but you can get them with power glass, heated glass, and with clearance lights. The only thing is those mirrors have a $550 pricetag on them. The Lucerix I have I think run about $300 new, but check Ebay, they have them on there every now and then. I got mine off there for $110 shipped and they're in new condition.

But will they fit a 2003 SuperCrew. Do you have a website for that company. I don't think anyone makes a extendable mirror for this truck. No, it does not have to be power extendable, just the mirro part. Thanks

A quick search on RV.net shows that Supercrews get screwed for towing mirrors. What is wrong with the clip on style? The clip on **** fit fine and don't vibrate.

I'm also thinking L. X mount maynot fit. But you can try at www.automirrorsource.com or ( if valid?) 1-800-295-3703

Ive used both, of course x-mount was best. However **** slipons work well, I just didnt like the double rear-view.

Good luck...OT

I don't think that Lucerix makes them anymore. From what I've heard they got out of the small vehicle market. **** and Bestop make identical mirrors to the Lucerix ones. I looked on ****'s website. They list them for 97-03 F150s, but not for the 01 Supercrew. I don't know if thats just the 01 or the 01-03. Try giving them a call.
