Peterbilt 567/579 Mirrors & Acc.

Frequently Asked Questions About Peterbilt 567/579 Mirrors & Acc.

Will these mirrors and mirror accessories fit both the Peterbilt 567 and 579 models?

Most products in this category are designed to fit both the 567 and 579, but mirror arm length, mounting style, and heated/power features can vary by model year. Always check the fitment notes listed on each product page or contact our parts team with your truck's year and VIN to confirm compatibility before ordering.

What materials and finish options are available for these mirrors?

Mirrors and mirror components are typically available in chrome-plated, stainless steel, or black powder-coated finishes. Chrome and stainless offer a polished look and added corrosion resistance, while black finishes are popular for a more blacked-out, modern appearance. Choose the finish that matches your existing cab hardware or your desired look.

Do the mirrors include heating and remote adjustment features, or are those sold separately?

Some mirror assemblies come pre-wired with heating elements and power/remote adjustment motors built in, while others are manual, unheated units. Motorized and heated components, such as mirror heads or motor kits, are also sold separately in this category if you need to replace just that part rather than the entire assembly.

Can I install these mirrors and accessories myself, or do I need a professional?

Many mirror arms, heads, and brackets can be installed with basic hand tools by anyone comfortable doing their own truck maintenance. However, if your mirror includes integrated heating or power wiring, you may need to splice into or reconnect existing wiring harnesses, which some customers prefer to have done by a professional installer to ensure proper electrical connections.

How do I know if I need a full mirror assembly or just a replacement part like a mirror head or bracket?

If your mirror glass is cracked, fogged, or no longer heating properly but the arm and mounting hardware are still in good condition, a replacement mirror head or heating element may be all you need. If the arm is bent, the mounting bracket is damaged, or you are changing mirror style entirely, a full assembly replacement is usually the better option.
