Ram1500 limited 2021, trailer tow group and black power folding trailer tow mirrors

[Lmtd]

Hi,
I am looking to buy Ram1500 Limited 2021 night edition and have a question.

Truck has “trailer tow group” and “black power folding trailer tow mirrors”, do I still loose the 360° surround camera?

Thank you!

Not necessarily. Look for "Surround–View Camera" on the window sticker and that means it has the 4 cameras: front, both side mirrors, and rear. I have power folding trailer tow mirrors on my 2021 Ram 1500 limited and it has all 4 cameras I mentioned. I don't know if the cameras will be there if the sticker doesn't show the Surround–View Camera feature.

Used to be you couldn't get those cameras with the tow mirrors. for 2021 you can, as crediblehulk confirms above. To get the Surround View Camera system, look for either the Limited Level 1 Equipment Group package...or the Advanced Safety Group package on the window sticker. Either of those two packages includes the surround-view camera system. See screenshot below from main ram website on 2/16/2021 for the Limited trim:

2019 and 2020 lost 360 camera with tow group. The 2021 is a different tow package and as long as you originally had 360, the tow mirrors won't delete that option.

I got the Power folding tow mirrors with 360º cameras on my 2021 Laramie. They
have Puddle Lights and a LED light that points directly rearward to light up the
side of the truck. However you need to have the truck in reverse and the cargo light
on to have them come on. I would have prefered to just have them come on when
reversing. Maybe AlphaOBD could correct this?

I have the Trailer Tow Mirrors and the Trailer Tow Group options on my 2021 Limited and it came with the 360° surround camera. You should be good to go.

However, I did notice that the RAM website has recently changed the build options for the Limited. If you choose the Trailer-Tow Group, you cannot get it with the eTorque option. I don't know if this is a bug on the website or not as it makes no sense to me. My Limited has both the Trailer-Tow Group and the eTorque option. I don't see why they would be mutually exclusive.

That's interesting.

I am in the process of adding tow mirrors to my 2021. Mirrors should be here today, should be fun.

Thank you very much everyone!
I’m glad I will still have those cameras

In my humble opinion, the front camera that comes with the surround-view camera system is the most valuable. Allows you to pull forward juuuuuuuussst enough without that confirming *CRUMPLING* sound...

You need the advanced safety group w/ level 1 or level 2 Also to get the 360º camera.

Well if anyone wants to add the power folding tow mirrors with the 360 camera option it can be done. I had the regular power folding mirrors with all matching options on my limited. The tow mirrors bolted right up without issue. I am in the process of adding the running light and reverse light options.

My ordered '21 Limited I got yesterday has the Trailer-Tow Group, Chrome Power-Fold Trailer-Tow Mirrors, Limited Level 1 Equipment Group (Includes Surround-View [360 Degree] Camera), and it's an EcoDiesel; among other stuff (see signature). I have the same mirror housing on our '20 2500 Big Horn but it doesn't have the cameras. Also, the Mirror is mounted differently, seems higher. These new mirrors on my 1500 are Huge Blindspots I noticed. If you get them, be aware of it. I flipped them up to see if it made a difference, made it worse.

I just did a build tonight on the website, and it allowed eTorque with the tow package. Odd.

Does anyone know what part number i would need to order for chrome tow mirrors for my 2020 Limited and do you think it would be a simple bolt on as we already have the 360 cameras etc.?

I'm in Australia with a RH drive ASV remanufacture (factory conversion).

Thanks.

Anyone?
I’d like to do black tow mirrors with surround view
Thanks
