Default Can I ditch the steel mirrors and get 24v mirrors?

Just curious; I'm not big on the steel mirrors for a few reasons, the primary one being they are pretty much worthless, and the second reason being they look silly. Can I somehow attach the 24v tow mirrors in place of my stock steelies?

Matt

yes you can.. ive done several. just got to make sure you get the tow mirrors for the 2 gen and not the 3 gen.

Very easy to install..plus you can see a heck of alot better pullin a trailer

So are they pretty much a bolt-in? I just buy the mirrors and they go right into the stock location?

Yes, unless you are installing the towing mirrors; in which case you need the added support brackets.
