Tow Mirrors

Can you get the tow mirrors without having the Big Tow package? Just looking at for sale ads and most don't say Big Tow package but have the tow mirrors. What can I look for besides the temp gauge to make sure the truck has the Big Tow package? Are the mirrors a dead give away?


Thanks for the help,

Goose

Re: Tow Mirrors

If you have the tow package you get the tow mirrors, if you dont like them trade them out with non tow mirrors

Re: Tow Mirrors

If you have BT, you will have both the mirrors and the tranny guage.

Re: Tow Mirrors

Thanks for the replies guys. Maybe my question is not clear. I know what the BT package comes with. Did any other packages come with the tow mirrors, or are they only on the BT package?


Thanks,

Goose

Re: Tow Mirrors

The dead give away is the TEMP guage, the tow mirrors can be added, and so can the factory tow hitch, and all have the tow mode button. So just make sure it has the Temp guage, that can't be added

EDIT: only big tow comes with the mirror, unless they added them

Re: Tow Mirrors

I just bought a 2008 Titan with tow package and the tow mirrors DID NOT come with it. Tow mirrors are not always included with the truck even if it has BT factory installed. I have checked with Camping World and Cipa Mirrors and I can't find attachable tow mirrors made for an 08 Titan. Does anyone know where I can find some?

You can get BT on an 08 XE, but it does not include the BT Mirrors..

Re: Tow Mirrors

That's absolutely the stupidest thing I've ever heard of. So they are actually selling a partial package. I can't believe that, you can tow but you can see around your trailer. Makes sense... NOT!!!
