Yeah that is what I was going to do. I just need to figure out which is which and how to get them into the plug.

Adam, looks awesome man! once you get used to those, you'll never want to go back to the other mirrors. My 350 has towing mirrors and i love them. makes me wish they mad a smaller proportional set for the ranger

edit: paint the mirror caps white imo

I already love them and don't miss the other mirrors. I actually already sold the stockers on craigslist. lol I listed them before I removed them and had them sold before I finished taking them off. So this ended up being a free mod!

Looks good man.
The mirrors on the super duty's are like that. its pretty cool that you can adjust the bottom part to see like the back corner of the bed, and the top part to see the whole other lane.

There is one downfall to these mirrors. It is really hard to back up at night! The top part of the mirrors isn't set low enough and the bottom is just too small and dark. I need to get used to it!

Or you just need to get some more backup lights.

When I first read this thread I thought someone had finally made a tow mirror for a Ranger, then I remember the F150 thing.

WHY can’t we get these for a Ranger ?
I know there will be no more Rangers to put them on !
If not tow mirrors just bigger one, maybe with the Concave mirror too and not '06 Mirrors.

I ran a bush over on purpose the other day. My Co-owner pissed me off, so i just kept going.

or you could change the reverse light in your tail-light into something brighter. i think DJ did it.
