Working with my dealer to order the right Trailer Tow Mirrors and am confused about tow mirror functions.

My OEM mirrors have heat, signals, puddle lights, flood lights, BLIS. No cameras or auto fold. I want to ensure my tow mirrors have the same functions, specifically the puddle and flood lights.

Here are the only descriptions I can find for the ML3Z17696BA part number. My dealer read back the same description. Not sure if the dealer side has better descriptions.

Does anyone have this mirror model ( ML3Z17696BA ) and can confirm/deny whether they retain the puddle light and flood lights (and other functions like heat, signal, etc). Thanks

I'm in the same boat as you. I'm looking to upgrade to the Tow mirrors as well. I have the following mirrors currently on my 2020 Lariat. I have the power folding, heated, front turn signal, puddle lights and BLIS. I'm waiting to hear back from the dealership to see which exact towing mirrors I would need. Like you, I just want to make sure I purchase the correct mirrors that allow me to continue to use these capabilities on the stock mirrors I currently have.

Yes, that model retained all my OEM functions, which include everything but cameras and power fold/telescope. The physical mirror swap takes minutes, but you (or dealer) will need to use Forscan to reprogram the truck to activate the mirror running lights as described here https://www.f150gen14.com/forum/threads/enable-tow-mirror-running-lights.6356/
