2003 Ford E450 Mirror Replacements

[AppaAndNala]

Hello all, long time lurker, first time poster.

I am looking for replacements for the side view mirrors on my 2003 Ford E450. It seems the previous owner tried to make them work as long as possible, but I have a long drive coming up this Christmas and replacements that don't move their angle while I drive would be nice. See pics.

I am confident I can source a replacement for the driver side on RockAuto, but I am still struggling with the Passenger side. Any help would be appreciated!

I'm not good with locating mirrors.

I can say that fix was ghetto for those mirrors.

You may be able to tighten them up though with hose clamps. If you buy two small hose clamps and put them on under the mirror, and slide them upwards so it's between the pipe and the mirrors back, then position the screw head on one so it's on one side of the mirror, then for the second scoot it up just under the other hose clamp and do the same so the screw head is on the other side of the mirror and tighten both really tight so the mirror has no room to swivel left to right.

Since it's already a ghetto fix, might as well do it better than the last guy. It shouldn't move if you do what I state. Unless the movement is in the main joint at the bus itself in which case try tightening the bolts there.

The current fix that's in already will hold the mirror there, but there's no resistance to keep the mirror from swiveling left and right in the wind.

Have you tried looking up "tow mirrors"?
They will often sell aftermarket mirrors that fit into the stock locations that either fold out, or have very long arms so you can see behind a trailer. I'm not sure how far out you need the mirrors, but I was able to find a few, either individually or sold in sets.
