Don't lie, you just want to rock those mirrors flipped up all the time.

Pretty sure any 4th gen should work. Will see if I can find some info for you

But yeah from what I can tell any 4th gen mirrors will work. There are some popular ones on Amazon a lot of guys go with. Trail ridge is one of them to check out.

only up to 2012 I believe though. in 2012 they put the ambient air temp in the drivers mirror. might not matter if the sensor is there but no plug connected to it but the plug may be different. not sure but just something to keep in mind. I got the Trail Ridge from 1A Auto. perfect match from the factory ones

When you go to Tow Mirrors, you are dealing with the extra weight & being as they stick out more catching wind, the pressure could at times be strong enough to bend metal.
There is a brace that you can install, it is the same brace that would come on a Ram direct from the factory that had tow mirrors

Totally forgot about the bracket. Good catch

I'll make another plug for the Trail Ridge mirrors from 1A Auto...I bought them when one of my sport mirrors failed...wanted them anyway for towing our camper.

Don't for get the brackets and you'll need to install riv-nuts in the door to hold the bracket. Very easy install.
