Are these worth the price?

For those of you who have the 06+ mirrors, would you recommend paying $100 for a set?
I really like the look of the squared, wider mirrors, but I'm not so sure if they're worth the price tag?

Don't buy those, they're junk. Only buy the Ford OEM mirrors. I have a set of the aftermarket 06 mirrors and they are no were near as strong as the factory ones are. The fit is off too

Here or a junkyard would be the cheapest bet. I use TascaParts.com for all my straight from Ford parts.

i second the only OEM mirrors. i have one OEM and one aftermarket mirror on my truck and the OEm still looks new and the aftermarket is all faded and dull and some of the plastic has chipped off along the windown too. i will be getting a set of 06+ mirrors soon though

This is probably a really stupid question, but I wanna make sure before I spend all this money, the power ones will work good too right?

imo go through a dealer. some jackass up the road from me smashed my mirror a couple months ago and it ended up being like $172.00 or somethin like that. doesnt bother me, didnt pay a cent of it but its just the ease of going through the dealer if you would need to return them or something
