Michael: Hi there. I'm Michael with etrailer.com today we're taking a look at the K-Source custom extendable towing mirror. This is going to extend your line of sight when you're pulling a trailer so that you can more easily and safely change lanes, pass other vehicles or park. Really anything that you need to do while you're pulling your trailer. This is going to make it much easier and safer because you'll be able to see your trailer. See how much room you have to work with.
This is going to be a custom fit for your 2000 through 2005 Ford excursion, as well as your 2000 through 2007 Ford F250 and F350 super duty. And your 2000 through 2007 Ford F350, 450 and 550 cabin chassis. This is going to replace the factory driver's side-view mirror on your vehicle. And one of the benefits of having a mirror like this, rather than some of the other towing mirror options that are available such as your snap on or slide on options, which clip onto your factory mirrors.So this is going to be a more permanent installation. Those other options, you have to put them onto your mirror before you tow, and then take them off when you're done towing.
It's just another step. When you we're hooking up to your trailer, this is going to be permanently installed. It's just going to make it a little bit easier for you. This does have the telescoping feature, so it will extend up to three inches farther out so that you can have it even better line of sight on your trailer. You can see at the bottom here, we do have the built-in spotter mirror, which is going to further help reduce blind spots so that we are confident and comfortable When we are towing our trailer.
When we're done towing, you can simply slide the mirror back into its original position. If you're going into a parking garage or another tight space, you want to utilize the hinge feature we have on this mirror, which is going to allow us to fold our mirror up against the vehicle so that we can get into some of those tighter spaces.This mirror also has the power mirror adjustment, which is going to allow you to change the mirror face position with the factory power controls inside your vehicle. It's also got the heated mirror glass, which is going to help clear off any frost and ice and reduce fogging in the mirror. Keep in mind the power remote capability and the heated glass are only going to work. If your vehicle already has those functions, the mirror itself is not going to add those functions to a vehicle that doesn't have those.
One thing I will note is that this mirror does not have your turn signal. That's something to keep in mind. It is a very durable plastic housing with a black finish. So it's going to look really nice. It's going to hold up very well for you. When it comes to the installation, it's going to be very simple.We're going to have the same footprint as our factory mirror. Our wiring is going to plug into the existing electrical wiring from your mirror. So basically just take your factory mirror off. And this will slide right in place. It comes with all the hardware that you need to get it installed, including this foam pad. Just make sure everything is nice and sealed up. It's not going to rattle or anything like that. This kit only includes the driver's side mirror. However, we do have the passenger side available here @etrailer.com. We also have a kit that includes both the driver and passenger side. If you need both of them, I would recommend looking into that. As far as our dimensions, this main mirror face here is going to be seven inches wide by eight and three sixteenths of an inch tall.Our spotter mirror is going to be six and five eights inches wide, and two inches tall. When we have our mirror extended out from the edge here to our vehicle is going to be 18 inches. When we have it pushed in, like we do now, it's going to be 15 inches from the edge to our vehicle. So again, that's about a three inch difference when we have it extended and retracted. This mirror does come with a 90 day warranty from K-Source and that is going to complete our look at the K-Source custom extendable towing mirror..
