Mirror coax cable end

[tilefordude]

Hello I am doing a mirror swap and I purchased a mint set of power mirrors online and ones missing a cable end. Anyone know if the is can be purchased ala carte? Thanks

Update incase anyone else encounters this issue. I was able to purchase a replacement end from a microwave company for 12 bucks. I got a crimping tool on Amazon and i was able to repair the missing end and it is functional.

Oh my gosh, I'm totally looking for that exact thing............ I'm retrofitting my non-360 mirrors to add a camera and the coax cable is the last piece of the puzzle. A couple of questions if I may...

Do you happen to still have the Amazon link to your crimpers?

It looks like you're having to go with that end not being anchored to the mirror. I'm close to giving up on trying to find a "factory" replacement for that specific coax inside the mirror and was assuming I'd have to leave a loose end as well. I'm curious if you happen to recall how the original one was anchored... My mirror has the hole through the weather seal for the coax but the only thing on the other side is a thin metal bar running perpendicular to the mirror body... Doesn't appear ready (or even capable) of properly anchoring a connector to.

Regardless, thank you for sharing the Fairview cable end pic above!!!

awesome, thank you. after seeing your thread here and now knowing the name of the connector, I've found a cheap non-Ford cable about the right length with what appears to be generally the right connectors on either end. going to try that and will keep trying to find the factory part number while i wait for that to come in.

if both of those fail, i'll try cutting a factory cable to length and using the connector and crimpers that you've found... really appreciate what you've shared above!
