i'm more concerned about the molding on the base lining up on the door frame..
different connectors are easy to remedy. __________________ 302 V8, BW4406, K&N CAI, 1" Phenolic spacer, TMH, Henson Custom Tune and a ticking noise problem. |

See the difference in size and shape? different mounting points and plugs? Not sure it would be doable or worth it...

Resurrecting an old thread ....
I have been looking into putting some different mirrors on y '02 Sport. Search brings up some stuff but I haven't heard of any successes - please correct me if I am wrong. I do agree that the wiring is probably not that big a deal. My mirror is only power - no heat and no puddle... I am interested in those functions - and it is very doable, or so I have read - but am also interested in a larger mirror. Rangers appears to be fortunate in that their mirrors are very interchangeable over a number of year ranges. I have found some references to separating some Ford mirrors at the joint between the two pieces and dealing with mounting plate issues. 1 post I saw - forget the source - indicated that in the normal extended position a upward hammer/mallet blow near the joint - don't know how hard - might seperate the two pieces cleanly. There also might be some sort of internal coupling that needs to be released. I have never seen the internals of a 4th gen mirror but am interested in its size. Has anyone pursued swapping mirrors - 4th gen or even other vehicle models - any farther ? |
