I came across a brand called paragon on Amazon with power fold mirrors which my truck doesn't have, which looked to have some issues with the power fold motor failing after some time.

Not sure if anyone knows of some other brands with features like power folding along with heated/powered mirror adjustments and such. I figured it'd be expensive getting new ones from the dealership, but considering to keep an eye out at some auto wreckers near me.

I did find another set of mirrors on Amazon that I actually liked and was cheaper, didn't have the power fold feature but a nice signal light. https://a.co/d/2QE1Nho

They resemble the look of GM truck mirrors which I have no problem with cause they look good and the sequential signal will match what I have already with my amber morimoto XB headlights. What's your guys thoughts on these mirrors?

Those are pretty nice. I can tell you that the GM style ones are great. I have them and like the way they are set up. I am not a fan of the Ram tow mirrors flipped up all the time.

This is my truck: https://www.ramforum.com/threads/gm-tow-mirrors-on.192021/
They look good! I know a guy who installed those exact mirrors on his cateye Chevy and they're pretty clean. The reverse light is also a good idea that I hope to see on more trucks. I don't tow enough to have them flipped up all the time either so it does add a different look with the mirrors, even though if I go for the GM Style I'll be getting the mirrors that do flip but I like the signal light

got a link to your mirrors?
Siziom Towing Mirrors for 2009-2018 Dodge Ram 1500, 2010-2018 Ram 2500 3500, Power Heated Turn Arrow Signal Light Puddle Lamp Extendable Manual Telescoping&Folding Pair Set Tow Mirrors, Smoke Lens https://a.co/d/0RQafwc

When I got them, the switchback was not available. I haven’t been able to get the puddle lights to work. They were really dim, so I replaced the bulbs with ones that were supposed to be brighter. Those didn’t work so I gave up. . Only bad thing I will say about them.
