Does anyone happen to know if Ford uses standard wiring bundles in all the F150's? Meaning, I want to change my tow mirrors on my XLT to the Lariat power fold. Would I just be able to change the mirrors because the proper connector is inside the door panel or would I need to obtain an adapter?

Thank you however, what is meant by not all wires are there?
I have seen a youtube where the installer needed to purchase an adapter, make modifications to enable everything to work. His XLT was not a 2021.

I installed the lariat power fold on my truck. Connector is identical. What I mean by wires not being there is the wires for the power fold and dim if you have auto dim mirror. I added all of that. You will also need a new window switch and programming of a couple modules

I have part numbers for the mirrors (ML3Z176....) and switch (FL3Z145....). Just wondering how they compare to what you have done. Thanks
