So I was wondering if the tow mirrors from 02 to 08 will fit on my 2000
Thanks Preston

i think mirrors for an 02 would fit. 03 and up are a different body style (different shape where mirror meets door). Hopefully someone else will verify this. Try searching "kool vue mirrors". You should find some helpfull info.

ya the mirrors for 02 1500 and up are different, and 03 2500 and up are different,,, everything below that are the same....

so from 94' to 02.5 will fit

94 to 02 25/3500's are the same. You need Kool vue part # DG49EL & DG 49ER for your truck. Plus the backing plates. Those are the power/heated part numbers.
If you want manuals, you can probably find them on e-bay or gcraigs list or even on this site. I have a pair of manuals in my garage.

Technically what you have will work, but you will regret it entirely if you dont spend the extra 30 or so for the brackets. The brackets will help stabilize the tow mirrors and if you dont get them then your mirrors will be shaken over ever little bump.

-all in all, get the brackets.

Some guys have made them out of a triangular piece of 1/8" steel or aluminum. How handy are ya!?

I bought the brackets when I put the mirrors on my truck. But after I saw them I made a set of brackets for my budy when he got a set of mirrors. He said they hold pretty tight and don't shake. Somewhere on the internet or one of these sights I found a drawing of them. I attached it, I wish I could give credit where it is due, but thanks whoever drew this up.
