Nothing against the product but it was not my issue. Take the time to take your mirror apart to make sure this is the problem! Mine was the splines on the pivot shaft stripped not the motor gears. The instructions could be better. -- response-- Cody pls email me, send pic of what was bad on your mirror, we can probably make it better. Hit the contact us button Thanks Paul

The repair went well. The new motors and gears worked great once I got the mirror apart. This is not something you will be able to tackle in a short amount of time. Be ready to have a few hours set aside to do the work. I found the instructions provided a nice overview of the task but lacked critical details that make the process appear to be straight forward and simpler than it really is. First issue, I broke my convex mirror because I followed the instructions and just pulled on the mirror edge to remove it. This is a $70.00 mistake. The right way to remove the convex mirror is to use the same method of removal as the main mirror above it. Use your long-handled flat blade screwdriver and go in approximately at the same angle as the larger mirror. Second, there are additional plastic clips on the mirror body and the plastic mirror arms that are not mentioned in the instructions. Removing these is easier once you know what you’re looking for, but when you go in blind, it is difficult, and you run the risk of breaking the plastic clips. My suggestion, do your research, there are lots of forums where others have detailed how to take apart these mirrors. -- Response -- Thanks for the honest feedback. I will look into the DIY instructions more. IF anyone wants to put together a detailed video, we would compensate. Contact me.

Nothing but great things to say about the product and the support. Excellent quality, take your time with the install and follow the directions clearly (don't remove the mirrors before you have to)... Paul provided excellent service to help me troubleshoot my mirrors as I had another wiring issue I discovered when I pulled the mirrors apart. Highly recommended - cannot go wrong with these!

I finally got the mirror apart and ruined the heater doing it. It looks like the housing plastic clip was broke and binding, not the motor nor stripped gears as commonly reported on the internet. That's how I came to find these parts, powerstroke forum. It was a complete struggle to get the mirror apart, and the instructions aren't that great/complete. Really need an exploded diagram. Nothing in the Ford shop manual about taking it apart. There's several different variations of this mirror and not all the same. For instance mine did not have a "cover" piece. When I got the new motor and drive shaft in, lubed, and cleaned up the rust the motor worked very good. The parts that Gruven's sells work very good! But not my problem. Not sure I'll be able to get the mirror back together and functional, as it's a poorly designed piece not intended to come apart, plastic is old and brittle. Plus now I have an added cost for mirror replacement. I was fortunate to find a complete new mirror and it's much easier just to replace the whole thing.

Good product well worth the time to fix an issue without throwing away other good parts

Overall, the instructions and product were great. Installation would’ve been impossible without their great set of instructions. Only reason for not giving 5 stars is the electric motors a a bit noisier than the stock motors. But other than that I’m super pumped to have my power fold option working again on my mirrors as Ford wanted me to bend over when I asked them what to do to fix the issue (damn near $1,300 a mirror!). I’ve already shared with all my other super duty owners as they all have the same issue. So glad to have a lifetime warranty and the ability to help out my fellow super duty owners that don’t want to bend over for Ford. - response from gruvenparts - Thanks for the honest review, Kevin. Yes they can be a bit more noisy before they break in, they should quiet down over time but metal on metal is louder than metal on plastic. Its good that you dont have plastic gears though as they wont break anymore, and yes $1300 for another mirror assy is ridiculous considering its going to come with more plastic gears .. and we already know how that story ends.

The motors and gears for the mirrors on my 2013 F250 fit perfectly. As mentioned in other posts, there is much more noise in the operation of the mirrors (my wife stops talking when the mirrors are operating... :+)) but they work great and move much faster folding in and out than the OEM parts. I followed the online installation procedures and all worked out well. I will say, due to so many “little” parts, this repair is not for the faint of heart. The first mirror took about 6 hours. After gaining that knowledge, the 2nd one took 3 hours. Great product!!

What awesome parts! I bought the F-350 R & L mirror parts including the motors and gears. The parts arrived three days early, from GA to CA. The instructions below were complete, with decent pictures. Like Adrean mentioned, take your time and take lots of pictures. I tested the sub assemblies after each step, by plugging into the door connector and checking the motor operations. I just saved $1300 for the passenger mirror. I have the driver parts and when it fails, I’ll rebuild it. Thank you Gruven. -- response -- Thanks Peter. Please help spread the word, its crazy people are going to the Ford dealer and spending $1300+ on new entire mirror assemblies when 99% can just be fixed replacing/upgrading the fold motors/gears and power extend motors. Take care and would love to see pics of the rig if you can send some. Paul@GruvenParts.com
