Default Tow mirrors on backorder?

When I was looking for my truck, the salesman asked me what I was looking for. I told him I wanted an SR5 CM with Bucket Seats and Tow Mirrors in any color except for black or white (I figured it would be an easy order to fill). They had none in stock, we agreed to have them swap the mirrors when they got some in. Granted, I'm in no hurry, I'd just like to swap them out before something happens to these.

It's been over a month and I still don't have them. The salesman called a couple weeks ago and said that the Service manager was looking for some and he would get back to me in a few days. A few days go by and no call. I called the salesman and told him that I was going to sechdule service and I'd be talking to service manager directly.

Yesterday, the Customer Relations Manager called me asking if the tow mirrors had been resolved. I told him no, and he said he'd call back after he found out what was going on. I don't remember details because he woke me up. When he called back, my wife answered because I went back to sleep. She told me that he said the mirrors are on national backorder. If they don't find a set within 48hours, they will pull a pair from a truck in stock.

I'm pretty happy that they are the ones calling me. I'll find out tomorrow what they are going to do. Has anyone had any difficulty getting a set of tow mirrors?

I got mine through a body shop 2 weeks ago. They came in the day after they were ordered. My dealer was telling me they might not be available through parts dept.

Good luck to you bud, sounds like your dealership is taking care of you either way. Seems like everything on these darn trucks are on backorder. Next thing we know the right rear door for the Crewmax's will be on national backorder.

if you wanted tow mirrors to begin with, i would of waited for one to come from the factory that way. now when you install the tow mirrors the lights on the mirror will not work nor would the heater if you dont have heater.

96 you're wrong, the lights and the heater will work, the tundras wiring harness is kinda universal.
