Mismatched Mirrors

This is a new to us 2007 E450 and the mirrors don't match. I assume that one of them was replaced but I don't know which. The left one can be folded for tight clearance and the right one does not. They also have different textures on the metal and the left on has a light.

Can anyone tell me which is original? How can I make the right one fold?

They both work from the power mirror switch control.

Most of the aftermarket mirrors are made by Velvac.
Their web site lists all their stuff, replacement parts, ect.
A lot of their products are also on Amazon, and the larger aftermarket rv warehouses.

Willing to bet the right one was replaced. Left one looks original, looks like one on our 2012 Lexington.

Thank you, that's what I'm looking for. Does your right one swivel in?

Does the light in the left one do anything?

Both of mine swivel in. Came from Forrest River, and their the Velvac brand.
Looks like the right one was replaced, maybe after previous owner got hit or hit something with the original mirror.
