Review on πŸ”Œ DNA Motoring TWM-058-T888-BK-CL Powered+Heated w/LED Turn Signal+Puddle Light Towing Mirrors Set Compatible with 15-18 F-150, 22-Pin Plug by Lex Ismael

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great alternative to OEM

Firstly I have a 2015 F150 with 22 pin power supply and heated mirrors that have puddles and headlights along with the turn signals, no BLIS. Based on the descriptions (or lack thereof) on most applicable towing mirrors, I wasn't sure if all of these features would work. I'm happy to report that it is! The amber lights are solid when the headlights or position lights are on (even when unlocked, but not when locked) and flash for turn signals. Turning on the headlights is a nice bonus over factory no-tow mirrors. - The puddle lights glow as they should when the door is open or unlocked. They should. (It's REALLY hard to tell if any of those aftermarket mirrors had it or not.) The foam "boot" around the truck side mirror doesn't fit as well as the OEM mirrors so it needs some adjustment, to get everything aligned. To the right. The top of the driver's mirror wobbles a bit, but it was barely noticeable when I wasn't looking. Also a faint whistle at over 40 km/h, but in the driver's mirror I can see a small gap between the plastic and the truck body. Eventually you can use black silicone or RTV to cover it. So they're not perfect, but good enough in my opinion considering the OEM is $600 JE to get the same features. Minor imperfections cause me to give them 4 stars but I almost want to give them 5 just because I'm impressed with the quality considering they cost me about $1,000 less than OEM. I fully expected to receive them, test them over rough back roads and prepare them for shipping back. Instead, I can probably safely let the cats play with the boxes. Update: I applied some pressure to the outside of the driver's side mirror and the whistle I heard previously seems to have gone. Maybe the foam just needed to be shrunk a little better, but there's still a gap I want to fill.
