* Ford Dealership: This is the most expensive option, but you'll be guaranteed a genuine Ford part. They can also install it for you.
* Auto Parts Stores: Major auto parts stores like AutoZone, Advance Auto Parts, NAPA Auto Parts, and O'Reilly Auto Parts carry replacement mirrors for F-150s. They often have both OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) and aftermarket options, with varying price points and features. Check their websites or visit a store near you.
* Online Retailers: Amazon, eBay, and other online retailers sell F-150 mirrors. This offers a wide selection and often competitive pricing, but be sure to carefully check reviews and seller ratings before purchasing. Be aware of shipping costs.
* Junkyards/Salvage Yards: This is the cheapest option, but you'll need to find a yard with an F-150 that has a mirror in good condition that matches your truck's year and model. The condition of the used mirror is unpredictable.
Before you buy:
* Identify your F-150's year and model: This is crucial to ensure you get the right fit. The mirror type can vary significantly between model years and trims (e.g., heated, power-folding, turn signal integrated, towing mirrors).
* Check for specific features: Do you need a heated mirror? Power-folding? Turn signals integrated into the mirror? Make sure the replacement mirror has the features you need.
* Consider the type of mirror: There are different types of mirrors (manual, power, heated, etc.). Make sure you get the right type to match your truck's existing system.
Remember to compare prices and features before making your purchase. Reading reviews from other buyers can be very helpful.
