Frequently Asked Questions About Kenworth T660 Mirrors & Acc.
Will these mirrors fit my specific year model T660, and are the mounting brackets compatible?
Our Kenworth T660 mirrors are designed to fit model years 2008-2016. The mounting brackets are direct replacements for OEM parts, using the same bolt patterns and electrical connections. However, some 2008-2009 models may require adapter plates for certain aftermarket heated mirror options. Always verify your VIN and existing mirror configuration before ordering, as cab configurations (day cab vs. sleeper) can affect bracket compatibility.
What's the difference between heated and non-heated mirrors, and how difficult is the wiring installation?
Heated mirrors include internal heating elements that prevent ice and fog buildup, essential for cold weather operation. If your T660 came with heated mirrors originally, the wiring harness is already in place - simply plug and play. For trucks without factory heated mirrors, you'll need to run new wiring from the dash switches to the mirror motors, which typically takes 2-3 hours per side. The heating elements draw about 3-5 amps each and require a dedicated 15-amp circuit.
Are chrome mirrors worth the extra cost compared to black plastic, and how do they hold up?
Chrome mirrors are triple-plated with copper, nickel, and chrome over ABS plastic cores, not solid metal. They maintain their shine for 3-5 years with regular cleaning but can develop pitting in harsh salt environments. Black mirrors are more forgiving of minor scratches and typically cost 30-40% less. Chrome adds aesthetic value for show trucks or owner-operators focused on appearance, while black mirrors are practical for fleet applications.
Can I upgrade from manual to power mirrors without major modifications?
Yes, upgrading from manual to power mirrors is possible but requires additional components. You'll need the power mirror assemblies, interior control switches, wiring harnesses, and potentially a relay module. The door panels must be removed to install switches and route wiring. Most conversions take 4-6 hours total. The factory mounting points remain the same, so no drilling or body modifications are necessary.
What size convex mirrors do I need, and how do I properly adjust them for blind spot coverage?
Standard T660 convex mirrors are 8 inches for the main mirror and 6 inches for the blind spot mirror. West Coast style mirrors use 7.5-inch convex mirrors. For proper adjustment, position the main mirrors to see 200 feet behind the trailer, then angle convex mirrors outward 15-20 degrees to cover blind spots alongside the truck. The bottom convex mirror should show your trailer tandems and adjacent lane. Many drivers prefer aftermarket blind spot mirrors with greater curvature for enhanced visibility.
