Speaker 1: Today we're going to take a look at the K-Source manual driver side and passenger side custom flip-out towing mirrors. Now these are a custom fit part, they are designed to fit the 1998 to 2002 Dodge Ram 1,500, 2,500 and 3,500 trucks. On a custom fit part like this I do recommend to go to our website, use our fit guide, put in your and model vehicle, and it'll show if this will work for your application.Now these are extendable towing mirrors which will replace the factory side view mirrors on your vehicle. There's no need for any of those snap-on or strap-on mirrors that you constantly have to put on and take off. These mirrors offer a flip-out function, make it very easy to see round the side of your trailer so that you can safely change lanes, pass or park. Basically all you do is rotate the mirror face just like this, to the outside, and that'll extend your line of sight by about four and a half inches.

Then when you're done towing, all you have to do is just push the mirror right back into place.Now they do use a manual mirror face adjustment on this mirror. They do have a built in spotter mirror right up here on the top corner. This helps reduce the blind spots. The scissor-hinge design, both these mirrors are hinged to allow you to fold the mirror up against your vehicle for parking or for fitting into tight spaces. They're all in a nice durable plastic housing with a textured black finish.

They are custom fit for your vehicle, they're a simple, no drill installation. You can see right here it's the same footprint and mounting points as the factory mirrors, and they do include the mounting brackets and the nuts on here for installation. Now this part number will include both the driver side and passenger side mirrors.A few specs of this, we're going to measure the size of the mirror, so the mirror face dimensions, the width on them. Going to be looking right at 10 inches wide. The height is going to be right at seven inches tall.

Now the blind spot mirror right up here, overall width is right at three and a half inches. Overall length on these mirrors with it rotated in like this, from this edge to this edge, is 17 and a half inches. When you flip it out, rotate it out, it's going to be 22 inches. Now these mirrors do meet the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard.But that should do it for the review on the K-Source manual driver side and passenger side custom flip-out towing mirrors.
