1998 Driver Side Mirror

[corson]

Hey, I got my driver side mirror ripped off in a roll over. There's several options for a replacement on rock auto but I'm not sure which connector I have and I don't have a way to check right now. It was a heated power mirror with a puddle light, so I think its one of these. I have a 1998 Explorer Limited. If anyone happens to know or can check would be much appreciated. Thank you

I am confused. You stated driver side mirror. You picture two passenger side mirrors.

Best I can tell, Rock Auto only offers two driver's side options that have power, heat, and the puddle light:

More Information for DORMAN 955008

More Information for VARIOUS MFR FO1320158

I'd expect either of these to work.

J_C is right, those from Rock Auto should work. The aftermarket brands may be your only choice, OEM are obsolete, and the aftermarket often don't move to as far of an adjustment range as stock did. But those should be fine for almost everyone.

I've been buying used right mirrors for my two 98 Limited trucks, due to about three mishaps with mail boxes. Used mirrors are hit or miss for real quality and function(worn out or not), and cost has been $50 and up.

, are you playing mailbox baseball with your truck?

Ha, I've been doing this for almost 34 years now, the last few I've gotten a little comfortable sometimes coming in too hot, and off just a little. I've got one last used mirror to put on. I usually will bump the mirror once every couple of months, but I happened to hit one too hard, twice in the last three years. So I have broken the glass or the mounting tabs behind the glass each time, which kills the mirror.
