Just watched your video, it made installing the mirrors on my RAM 2500 2015 a breeze. The additional detail about the door clips on the panel helped a lot.
Thanks a ton for the video you helped me put mine on. I have a few pointers that arent in the video (or i didnt hear them in the video) 1. take your plastic knob off for your lock on the top and 2. take the plastic pc out where your door handle is, this makes it extremely easier to put the freaking panel back on.
I had watched other videos that were not as complete as this one, which is why I did it. I did miss a couple of the steps in the video. Glad it helped. I posted a second video of when I went to the dealership and got the mirror lights activated.
Ordered my tow mirrors from 1 AAuto .com came with the puddle lamp, turn signal, heated and power glass. I also chose the upgraded power fold option since it’s the only feature my 11’ ram outdoorsman didn’t have. The entire wire harness was included and they also have a very detailed 2 videos on how to wire in the harness for power fold option if not originally equipped. So far so good, I know the tow mirrors usually come with an extra support bracket I have yet to get. It was 379.00 in black from there website with free shipping and no tax. Absolutely love having only press a button to fold the mirrors in with exiting the vehicle!
Loved your video! I have a damaged reg mirror on my Ram 1500 2016 that I need to replace. Im not much of a mechanic but think I can do what you did.! Thanks!
They are real good to tow a trailer with. Much better sight line down the trailer compared to the ones I took off. They were cheap priced and good quality.
They are a big help. We just got a longer travel trailer and I don't think I could pull it without them. I did also buy a Furiin camera system that let's me see down the sides of the trailer and the back.
Didn't know about the extra bracket when I put them on. If I have to take it back apart I will put them on then. Have not had any issues with it so far.
Do you have a clear view on your driver side? Mine sucks. I have to keep looking at the small one to change lanes. Mines don’t control like that when I pull them up.
Hi , I’ve seen other video like that were it was explained that if you got from normal to towing mirror you should also buy 2 brackets ( 1 each) that goes right before you tight them down.. cause of the weight, my question is , have you ever taken bumpy road or off road and else ? Are the mirrors holding fine even without brackets ?
Been many miles on the national Forest roads in Colorado. So far no problems. If I had known about the brackets when I did this I would have put them on. I just recently found out about them. Have not had any problems without them. They don't vibrate.
I installed the aftermarket tow mirrors on my Ram and the controls work fine in regular mode, but in moose mode the controls are inverted. What would be causing this?
@@russellmcknight7226 it must have a temp sensor it then, because I have never seen it not work. I have an updated video that I made when I took it to the dealer to have the lights turned on. Also read the comments below about an app that can turn the lights on. Good luck! 👍
Not a good one. It was 4 years ago when I put them on. Just search for your year model. The ones I got have held up well and they were very cheap. Get the stabilizer brackets that go on the inside. I did not know about them when I made this video.
They are made in China. No manufacturer name on the boxes. I bought them cheap on eBay. They are as well built as the factory ones on my son's Ram 3500.
Jeremy Fawcett I have not had time yet to take it. I will soon. It has 2 recalls on it now so I will have it done when I take it for the recalls. Work is busy right now so it will be around September before I can get it done.
Matthew Randall Sounds good. My mirror lights are not working (Puddle or Blinkers). It seems the dealer can turn them on from what I read. I'll let you know if I get in before you update your post. Good Luck.
Tree top fell on my Ram 1 ton and have to replace right side mirror. Thank You for posting your video.

Glad it helped, it has been 2 years since I installed them and still no issues with them.

Those are awesome, I’m getting some on my truck too, I’ve always like the horn design it has.
They are real good to tow a trailer with. Much better sight line down the trailer compared to the ones I took off. They were cheap priced and good quality.
Well done. Nice demo work. What turns on the defrost of the review mirrors?
there is a support bracket you are supposed to use when installing those tow mirrors. you can buy a pair for about $10 on eBay.
Good job I’m getting some soon so I can tow my travel trailer
They are a big help. We just got a longer travel trailer and I don't think I could pull it without them. I did also buy a Furiin camera system that let's me see down the sides of the trailer and the back.
I am surprised you didn’t add the T support bracket
Didn't know about the extra bracket when I put them on. If I have to take it back apart I will put them on then. Have not had any issues with it so far.
Do you have a clear view on your driver side? Mine sucks. I have to keep looking at the small one to change lanes. Mines don’t control like that when I pull them up.
Yes, I have a clear view on both sides.

Matthew Randall thanks, honestly i was thinking if to spend the extra 60$ to buy them or not.. i guess i will put them on just like that !!
Maybe I missed it, did the mirrors have power fold in for tight spaces? VERY helpful Video, BTW!
Nope. They are the low end manual fold in.
If your original truck mirrors have the signal lights will it work if you buy a tow mirror that has turn signal?
Yes it should because the computer already has the programming for the lights turned on.
Random Boii Tv i
Thanks I just saw some made in San Francisco pair of Paragon for 290.00
Did you get the lights working? If so how
Yes. I took it to a dealership and had the computer flashed for the lights
@@matthewrandall6320 they charged you for it ?
@@hilariocamarena384 Yes. They charged me $140.00
I installed the aftermarket tow mirrors on my Ram and the controls work fine in regular mode, but in moose mode the controls are inverted. What would be causing this?
I don't know. I would imagine it has something to do with the programming.
Keep us posted

Do you still have your regular mirrors? For sale?
I will have to look. I think they are in the loft in the shop.
@@matthewrandall6320 did you get around to checking the loft?
@@jeffellington13 sorry, I have been very busy and have not finished looking for them.
@@jeffellington13 we searched the shop and out garage, we can't find them. Sorry about that I thought I still had them.
@@matthewrandall6320
I have my mirrors if u want them
what about outside temp?
I have no idea about the outside temp.
@@matthewrandall6320 does the temp still come up on the dash?
@@russellmcknight7226 yes it does. Is that where the sensor is located?
@@matthewrandall6320 the sensor is in the mirror,reason I ask I want a set for my ram also

Do you have a link to purchase these from eBay?

@@matthewrandall6320 ok, cool. Thanks!
What is the manufacturer name of the mirror
They are made in China. No manufacturer name on the boxes. I bought them cheap on eBay. They are as well built as the factory ones on my son's Ram 3500.
Link to the mirrors?

That is not the same seller but the mirrors are the same.
Did the dealership turn the mirror lights on for you?
Jeremy Fawcett I have not had time yet to take it. I will soon. It has 2 recalls on it now so I will have it done when I take it for the recalls. Work is busy right now so it will be around September before I can get it done.

@@ricktocklong9551 I still have not had time to take it.
How can you live without puddle lights? Oh the horror!
djrand62 Exactly! LOL I think they should be called something else, I try not to park in puddles
Oh so that's what they're for. 😅
