I believe its on the new Limited Edition coming out later on this year. Other than that, I dont think they've come stock on any other LX. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

I think you saw aftermarket parts. The limited edition does not get chrome mirrors though it does get chrome handles.

Ahh- ok. That makes sence. The rest of the LX was stock, so I did not thing that was put on aftermarket, but it makes sence. So bottom line is getting these A. - adds some chrome and B. - date your truck to the newest LE

Nice- how hard is the install?

Now that I'm aware that there are actual replacement handles and not just cheap stick ons, does anyone know if they make full replacement chrome mirrors as well or are those gonna have to be the cheap stick ons?

Also, that LX you saw would have to be Black to be a Limited Edition.
