Looks good with the tows! I know everyone would say this but you should tint your corners with black wheels and mirriors being black.
ive thought bout it but id want to tint cabs too since i have tinted tails and i dont like the look of tinted corners and clear headlights idk im wird lol
Looks alot better with the tows on there

thanks man all i need is a cowl hood like yours and more lift haha. i like ridding around with tthese mirrors lot easier to see. feels like driving a big rig too

Well I just ordered me a set!
I debated if they'd look good on my truck as it's not lifted and it doesn't have much of a "beef" look to it. I decided that they probably won't look terrible and my primary purpose in buying them isn't for the looks. It's for the function.
I don't tow often, but when I do... I tow with OEM style tow mirrors! lol all commercial jokes aside I wanted them for the few times that I do tow big stuff.

I got power ones without the signal. I like the idea of a signal in the mirror but I don't know how much I like the amber signal on the side. I like the idea of heated but I didn't see any that were heated right off the bat and the only one that I could find that was heated was a signal too. Besides I think the signal adds more "beef" to the mirror and I am already borderline on my particular truck...

Right after I ordered it I noticed these
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/95-99-CHEVY-TAHOE-POWER-HEATED-TOWING-MIRRORS-SUBURBAN-_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem3cb98d7cb7QQitemZ260811095223QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories#ht_4295wt_1167

They are heated without signal for only $15 more than I paid and from the same seller. I'm debating whether or not to email the seller and ask him/her to change my order in the morning before they ship... You don't suppose that the mirrors that I got have the same heated glass but without the supporting wiring do you? It seems slightly odd that an eBay seller selling retrofit parts would have so many different options... Manual, Manual with signal, Power, Power heated, Power signal, and (more rare) Power-signal-heat...
