I’m wanting to put power-adjustable tow mirrors on my truck. Unless one of you steers me in a better direction my plan is to put the Trail Ridge mirrors on it.
Now for the question: My truck currently has manual-adjustment mirrors. I’m still sourcing all of the correct wiring plugs to make a harness to convert to power-adjustable mirrors. Is there any harm in putting the power mirrors on now and just manually adjusting them until I get my harness built for the power adjustment? My concern is if there’s a connection between the mirror backing and the power motors that can be damaged by hand-adjusting them. Very likely this will be a one-and-done until I can get power to the adjusters.
