Sounds to me like they could take your skullcaps, paint 'em in the body shop, and charge the materials/labor back to Ford.

the fact that i have yet to see a single 801a truck with the spotlights have painted caps the more i feel ford made a mistake and didn't intend on them coming painted.
you can buy painted caps on ebay, they come done. think they are like $250 or something like that.

The dealership called me and Ford wanted pictures sent in of the mirrors. If you get the 801A package and upgrade the side mirrors to include LED lights, blind spot detection, camera, ect., the are supposed to come with painted skull caps. It is detailed in the option list. I think the option number is 56a. Anyhow, long story short, I think they told me that all they have to do is take out the mirror to pop off the black (rough textured) skull cap and replace it with the painted one.

It will either be that or a whole new mirror.

As a side note the service manager said that when he pulled up my VIN number it doesn't show that I have the upgraded side mirrors. If you have the 801A package with the upgraded side mirrors, I would make sure you have your dealer document (with pictures) that you have the upgraded mirrors.

The only way to get the blind spot detection is the 802A.I think

so if you get any of those 3 options you should have it correct?

so they approved the "misbuilt" claim and should change them out then?

I need to know if this gets approved because if that is the case I have a misbuild on my hands.

For some reason I can't build a 801A with blind spot detection on Ford's website.
Says I have to upgrade to the 802A......is the website different than the actual build sheets?
I'm confused.
