Ram-Left factory with non-oem tow mirrors....

I've cracked all 4 of my tow mirrors glass. I ordered the parts from the dealer I bought the truck from new, and picked them up. Noticed they don't fit as I'm trying install them in the parking lot. My factory mirror/backing plates do not have any mopar markings. The part number does not come up in there system. The parts guy tells me they're aftermarket... Manager was gone for the day. Unreasonable to ask for new oem towing mirrors, and new oem glass?

Mexican corruption has me shocked, shocked I tell you!

Bought my 3000GT from the dealer.

Came with 3 sets of keys.

Misplaced the one set I always used so pulled out the backups.

Wrong keys, didn't fit the car.

Finally fins my daily set, toss the wrong ones in the glove and forget about it.

Had to take in for service so while I'm there hand the service writer the wrong keys and ask for replacement sets that actually fit the car.

Go to pick up car after service and there's $300.00 ish on the bill for the replacement sets.

Uhmm, dude, I'm not paying you to fix your mistake.

He stands firm, If I want new keys for the car it's gonna cost me.

Waiting room was packed, I made sure everyone clearly heard the rest of the conversation.

Did not get to finish expressing my utter disappointment at their lack of customer service and unwillingness to correct THEIR mistake but I did get the keys I needed replaced for free which was the point.

With aftermarket mirrors, I have found that TYC (Genera) are the best fit and function. Depo and Cool Vue are hit and miss. We don't carry any other aftermarket mirrors than those.

Maybe see if you can get some rear wheel arch sheet metal thrown in when you get the right mirrors.

And a AAA membership.

I believe we all make mistakes but I will not validate your poor choices and/or perversions and subsidize the results your actions.

From the factory I doubt that, but I do believe the dealer put them on, did you order the truck or was it on the lot?

Special ordered truck.
I was just given new mirrors by the dealer. No arguments. Just an apology. Weird
