Anyone have West Coast style mirrors on their truck? Where did you get them? Were they Ford specific or universal fit? I have the RV mirrors now,just thinking about a change and believe the West Coast style would look pretty good. Any thoughts? Anyone?

I am not sure I know what those are.

They're bigger somewhat like dump trucks have

Last year I purchased a set of Velvac 413407 mirrors for our 1995 F350. They are pricey but they sure make pulling/backing our fifth wheel a breeze.

Where did you purchase your Velvac mirrors?

 

[Bart Smaalders]

Do you mean Velvac 713407 mirrors?

I was able to locate my original invoice. The part number is VE-713407 (my original post was incorrect). I purchased them from United Truck Centers, Inc.; telephone 888-878-2531; www.unitedautoandtruck.com

I finally got around to looking at those mirrors. You're right, they are spendy but also, exactly what I want. Guess I need to get them on the priority list. Thanks for going thru the trouble of finding the part number, Greg.

Thanks

I put a set of stainless mirrors off a F-600 (1990-1998) since its the same door skin, it fit perfectly. I got a second set of mirror gaskets for the lower mount to better cover the hole for the electric mirror wiring, and it was the best mod I did to that truck. 1997 CC DRW. I was going to upgrade to heated mirrors from a truck stop, and use a Bronco dash bezel for the defrost button, but I traded the truck in before I had the chance. Go for it if you tow at all you will love them. I'll do it again in a heartbeat if I ever get another dually.

F600 huh? Guess I will add that to my junkyard list next time I am able to go. Thanks for the info

1980-1998 F600-F850. some are painted, some are stainless obviously you want the stainless ones if you can find them. the portion that bolts up just below the window will not cover the square hole for the power mirrors, but if you take two of the grey plastic gaskets for the swing away mirror, they will make one perfect cover and look OEM. you have to drill the holes up top, but since the F-series shares the same door skin, its a simple mod.
