Dodge Ram Pickup Towing Mirrors



Installation of an Extendable Towing Mirror from CIPA on a 2006 Dodge Ram Pickup 1500


Today on this 2006 Dodge Ram 1500 pickup truck we are going to install part number 73600 from CIPA. This is their extendable trailer towing mirror. To begin our install the first thing we need is roll down the window itself. Then we have to start removing the inside trim panel. There are a few fasteners but it will not be too bad to do. We will work our way from top to bottom on this. We are going to start off with this screw right here and work our way down. The next thing we need to do is remove this panel. This will just come out for now and we are going to take our trim panel removal tool and go underneath the edge and pry it up. 00:37

Disconnect the wiring from the panel. Push the little button in and it should come apart. We are going to remove this screw right here. Then, to remove this handle, there is another bolt that goes right through here that holds the handle on. Then there will be two screws on the bottom and we should be able to pull our panel loose. Next thing we are going to do is remove the nuts that hold the original factory mirror in place, these three right here. We are just going to leave this loose for now and then while we are here lets disconnect our electrical plug too. Keep one hand on the mirror and we will reach in and remove the rest of our hardware. We will reinstall in the same spot as the original came out. 01:28

The mirror comes with new hardware so we will install that on the stud. We will plug our wiring harness back into the new mirror. Now we will reinstall the trim panel and basically reverse all of the previous procedures. That will just snap back into place. We will try our left mirror since we installed that first. We have got left and it is going to the right. Up and down. Our mirror checks out, now we will show you how to extend them. Basically grab a hold of the mirror itself and just pull straight out. You can pull as little or as far as you want. With that, that will finish our install of part number 73600 from CIPA.
