2013 Ram 1500 Tow Mirrors?

My brother tows with a 2010 Tundra. He bought the universal tow mirrors but didn't care much for them so he bought the custom fit tow mirrors. He hasn't had a chance to test them yet.

My Dad will be towing with a 2013 Ram 1500. He was interested in the custom fit mirrors for his truck but I don't see them listed on etrailer yet for 2013. I read somewhere that the mirrors for the previous year Ram's will fit. I think it was model 11400.

I thought the 2013 Ram was designed a little different so I was wondering if anyone could help me out. Thanks!

    In 2013 they moved the temp sensor for outside air temp to the driver mirror. You can use older year mirrors 09-12 but will have to wire in the sensor from factory mirror to the towing mirror. I did mine on my 2013 ram in about 1 hour which included disassembly of stock mirror to get the sensor out.

    PM If you you need further instructions.

    Did you find out if the 11400 fit the 2013? I'm wondering the same thing.

    I ordered the custom mirrors for my 2012 Dodge 2500, which are the same mirrors as the 2013. I ordered them directly from Cipa. They fit, look, & perform perfectly.
