Ram has some of the best non-tow mirrors for towing.
Best reach and convex spot mirror.

IMHO the flip up tow mirrors look wrong on the 1500, but oh so right on the HD's.

I have never seen power adjust lowers. Those 25 mirrors will have power convex adjust. Those I would buy.
Agree, I'd spend the $$$ as well on new style 1500 tow mirrors. Likely would need more than just the mirrors bc our current door module won't have all the features. Just hope there is a way to retrofit.

Only other real option now is to use GM style mirrors from Boost Auto but they are still missing 360 cam. Since I have that on my current Rebel (along with BSM, heat and power fold), not sure what would happen to that vuew going aftermarket.

Yup, they are nice and have read that we can remove and go back to sport/Std mirrors. I was almost thinking of doing this as well until I read 1 comment in old thread (attached).

I would search junkyards for mirrors from a truck with the same options. I swear in another thread, Jimmy07, the genius when it comes to these things, said they can be calibrated after a switch. @Jimmy07

Yes, Jimmy did say they could as well but if you read the thread comment I attached, the person said AlfaOBD did calibrate but gave error msgs. Agree, might be worth a test with junkyard specials if found cheap enough
