    Just got my set across the border this afternoon, probably the first one in Canada :canada:. Thanks Rob. I also stopped to a nearby Radio Shack to pick up some stuff for the install.

    Before all my Canadian folks goes crazy, I must precise: I went to the USA to pick them up at a specific location.

    I was happily surprised to find all the required instructions, plus wires harnesses, quick splice, etc. For the heat option, you have to find the components to make it work. I already have the switch, I just need the switch connector and the wire terminals, I will order them soon.

    I plan to do the marker/blinker combo wiring. According to the diagram, it specify 1N5400 diodes. THIS IS OVERKILL for this application, the diagram was made for an incandescent light bulb. I will attempt to do it with 1N4001's instead, since these lights are LED. I will also test a wide range of resistors and try to find a perfect balance between marker and blinker. Sounds like I will be busy this weekend :D.

    OK to all the Canadians still waiting for the shipment. They had the meeting and we are just waiting for a email for some software so that we can use our mailing unit to bill out the orders. This should not take long and I will get them out as soon as it is up running.
    Sorry about the long delay and thanks to everybody for your patience.

    I went and picked my camper up from storage and towed it home with the new mirrors on lastnight. The new ProEFX tow mirrors are AWESOME. I just flipped them up, pushed a button to adjust them, and magic. I could see perfect. Backing it up the drive was so much easier and I could see everything behind me. I could change lanes with confidence. If anybody wants to buy my lightly used universal strap-on tow mirrors let me know. If you are wondering whether on not to buy the proefx's or not, buy em! They look a little big on the truck, but not bad, they work great and seem to be top quality. I would definately buy them again.

    Nice to know !!!

    I am actually in the shop installing them. I won't have the heat hooked up, but at least the wires will be routed and the marker/blinkers will be working.

    Getting those wires through the doors is a PITA, but now I'm glad I am just done this part :eek:.

    Please explain. I would like to have both blinkers and marker lights but don't have a clue how to start doing it.

    I am slowly working on a tutorial, but my time is very restricted. Can't promise I will be able to post it soon.

    WHAT ABOUT US ?

    :canada:


    85% of the raw materials used to make these mirrors came from Canada.

    A post, PM, or email update would be nice. We do exist.

    2 months later and still shipping issues. I to am worried by the lack of updates or responses.

    Since these are available from other sellers now that ship to Canada what are the chances of getting an update.

    I am sorry about the delays but just so everybody knows all the Canadian orders were sent out on Friday. With all the problems and delays that we had I didn't want to post anything on here until I could confirm that everything was going through. I do want to personally apologize and thank everybody for there patience. I will be emailing everyone there tracking information tomorrow while at work.
