K-Source Replacement Side Mirror - Electric/Heated - Textured Black - Passenger Side

Video Transcript for Review of K Source Replacement Mirrors - Durango Replacement Passenger Mirror - KS60189C

Michael: Hi there, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Today we're going to take a quick look at the K-Source replacement side view mirror. This is going to be a direct replacement for the passenger side view mirror on your 2011 through 2016 Dodge Durango. This is modeled after the Durango's original look and fit. So you really shouldn't be able to tell that it's a replacement mirror should look like it came with your Durango right from the factory. So you don't have to worry about that piece together from the junkyard kind of look.

This is going to also have the same footprint as the original mirror, so you're not going to have to worry about any drilling or anything like that.That's going to mount the exact same way as the original so basically all you have to do is take the original off, plug this one in its place, get it mounted in and tightened down and you're ready to go. So, very easy to do it yourself kind of a weekend project, if you will, to make sure that you're going to be up and running again. Able to see out that passenger side window and make sure that you see what's coming up behind you and as you're backing up and those sort of things. Now this mirror does have several of the original features of your other mirror including the power remote capability. So you can adjust the mirror face position with the factory power controls inside your vehicle.It also has the heated mirror glass capability to clear frost and ice and reduce fogging.

Keep in mind those functionalities are only going to work if your vehicle is already capable of that, it will not add those capabilities if your vehicle is not already set up for it. This will not support the blind spot detection, so if you have the blind spot detection on your current mirror this will give you a little bit limited capacity capabilities. But otherwise it's going to be a really great option for you. It is an OE grade product so it's going to have the same quality materials as the original mirror, including a convex lens here to give us a wide angle view of what's coming up behind us that we reduce those blind spots.The front of the glass is plated with reflective chrome so it's going to give us a nice, clear image. This does have the breakaway functionality to it.

So if we we're to run into the side of our garage or a parking post or something like that, the mirror is going to fold in on itself to try and help absorb some of that shock and reduce the damage done to the mirror itself. But it is a really nice durable plastic with a textured black finish here on the sides. The back cover here does come disconnected so that you can connect that yourself. But you could also paint this if you want it to match your vehicle's color. If it's your current mirror isn't black you could paint this and then leave that disconnected so that you can paint this separately.You don't have to worry about over spray getting on the rest of it, but it's very easy to click in place.

But once you get it in place it is very difficult to remove that's why I'm not going to do that now. But you can see it is very similar to the original look, so it should be very easy to get that to match with that option to paint that. If you need a little bit more reassurance that this is going to work for you, this is going to be a replacement for the original equipment number that you see on the screen there. So if you're looking through your owner's manual and you see that number anywhere on your original mirror, you can trust this is the replacement that you need.And this is just the passenger side. If you also need the driver side, we also have that available here at etrailer.com. You can find it using the part number that you see there on the screen. So overall, I think this is going to be a great option to get you up and running again so that you're being safe. And it's going to integrate well into the look of your vehicle so that you're going to look put together again. So, that's going to complete our look for today. Again, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Thanks for watching.
