K-Source Snap & Zap Custom Towing Mirrors - Snap On - Driver and Passenger Side
The KS81600 (pair) snap-on mirrors mounted quickly and fit snug and beautifully to my 1999 Ford Expedition Eddie Bauer Series with contoured mirrors, and did not impede the existing Ford mirrors whatsoever. However, I have a problem with the focal distance of the passenger side KS81600 mirror that I received. See photos. It's magnification is quite different from the truck mirror, and shows only a small, magnified area of the distant background. In contrast, the KS81600 driver side mirror has a similar focal distance as the Ford driver side mirror, offering more of a long and broader view. I could live with the driver side view, but not the passenger side. I'm unsure if this difference is intentional or a product error/mis-match. I've contacted the eTrailer experts on the matter. Alternately, I also ordered a pair of the KS3891 "clip-on" mirrors, with the ratchet system. While I think this product offers a much broader view on both sides of the vehicle, they are not near as easy to put on as the KS81600, never quite go on in exactly the same position, and are not a perfect fit to my contoured Ford mirrors on the passenger side. In addition, the thicker clamps of the KS3891 make contact with the Ford mirror glass and impede my ability to fully adjust them. I will post a separate review of them. The KS81600 is a much cleaner, easier product to install and secure. Unfortunately, the focal distance issue is a deal killer for me, and I'll probably keep the KS3891 which provide a broader view on both sides of my rig.
2001 F-150 SuperCrew, Lariat edition with turn signals incorporated into exterior mirrors. The mirrors arrived undamaged within four days. Installed both mirrors in under three minutes and they fit perfectly, with no issues concerning the turn signals, (this was my concern). Hauled the trailer camping last weekend and although the extended mirror is slightly on the short-side, it was a huge improvement over the stock F-150 mirrors and I was able to see the traffic behind me. The mirror extensions had very little to no vibration. Great product at a great price. The video on the site showing the mirrors being fitted to the 2000 Ford Expedition is what prompted me to purchase since they are the same mirrors used on the F-150 at that time.

We have used these mirrors for several trips. They are very easy to install and take off. Provide a very good view to back of Trailer. Price was well worth the Safety Factor!
It was a very simple installation. Alot better fit than what I was expecting. Just drove 400 miles with them and no problems. Thank you!!

Quick delivery and easy tracing. Boxed extremely well and the add on trailer mirrors were in perfect condition.
So far they are great! They fit on my 03 ford f150 4-door when Others didn’t. I have not tried them pulling the camper yet but expect they will do fine. They are gret for the price!

Great product at a fair price and the best customer service on the planet! After having issues with UPS delivery resulting in them returning my shipment, Aris, the most fabulous customer service rep reached out as soon as they received it back at their facility and made sure my order went through to get these mirrors to me. She and everyone at etrailer are just great people to work with. My husband loves the mirrors, extended visibility, how easy they mount, stability, and they fold in! Highly recommend both the mirrors and the company! Thank you!!!!
2010 F150 Lining up the Thumb screw hole took a little work.. I did manage to get it all lined up With a little work and observation. I lined up the anti-slip plate with the thumb screw hole before I installed it, and marked The adjacent location with a sharpie. After realigning the thumb screw turned down all the way with little effect. Extension mirror looks sharp!! And is solid against the existing mirror.

They have worked pretty good, however the passenger side mirror does not seem to stay put when I adjust it.
I have used them several times, I don't use them often enough to say that how durable they are but they've been on and off several times and have performed perfectly. Quality of the product is good and I see many more years of use of out of them.

I purchase the mirrors to use for towing a camper that I bought. I could not see around the camper with my stock mirrors on my Ford it took me about 2 minutes to put these mirrors on they look awesome. I hooked up to my camper I can see straight down both sides with plenty of room on both sides. I can now change lanes on the interstate without sticking my head out the window and I can back up into my camping spot without having to have somebody flag me in. I would definitely recommend these mirrors to anybody looking for tow mirrors to add to their Factory mirrors you cannot beat the price or the ease in which these mirrowa go on. They come in a nice carry bag if you don't want to leave them on but I'm personally just going to leave mine on they look factory.
Just what I've been looking for. I pull a 8x10 enclosed trailer for my ultralight plane. I was afraid the mirrors would be too small but with the 2007 ford mirrors already being large these add on mirrors worked great. They slipped on so easy and can't come off. Excellent product and reasonably priced. I read the reviews on products before I purchase them. I'm a police officer so I'm suspicious the reviews might be made up. You can bet that this review is truthful and it's a good product or I wouldn't have taken the time to do a review.

I am a first-time customer of eTrailer.com. Estimated shipping date was on-time. Mirrors are an excellent fit and are perfect for my application. I couldn't be more satisfied with eTrailer.com service. Thank you.
Perfect for towing our travel trailer! They install easily and securely--there is no wobble or extra noise. The mirrors stay where you've adjusted them while driving. They still allow our truck mirrors to fold in while installed.

Excellent Product…Easy to Install and the instructions were very easy to understand… These Mirrors fit perfectly on my 2016 Ram 2500 SuperCrew 4x4 Truck
These things work great, so far so good. Not sure how long the mounting system will last. Looks like the mounting system could ware out after a few years. If so I'll get new ones.

Love these mirrors. they are a snap to install, haven't seen any damage to the truck mirror frames. They do a great job of extending my view around the trailer. Lastly, they look like they were installed by Ford.
I ordered the snap zap slip on towing mirrors for a camping trip on September 1st thinking they would arrive in about a week given they were ordered on labor day weekend anticipated a slight delay. After all, the advertising states that they would ship within 2 days. I received a email the next day stating they had shipping. Not seeing any progress on shipping I sent an email on the 9th and part of the response was if there wasn't any progress by the 19th he would look at other options. Definitely not the response I was looking for. Finally I received a email from the shipper stating they had received my package on the 12th and arrived on the 13th, after we had left for our trip Happy with the product, disappointed with the process.

These fit my f150 perfectly. I went with this mirror extension because other mirror types don't permit the full functionality of my power mirrors. Also these don't vibrate in use and are easy to apply and remove.
The mirrors are as advertised. They work good and they are stable. If you have painted factory mirrors these mirrors will scuff the paint. Now for the packaging or lack off. eTrailer shipped the mirrors in the retail box the manufacture would pack them in for display in stores. It's the thinest of cardboard. The box was almost destroyed. It had been taped up at least twice in addition to the taping etrailer did. Come on etrailer as much as you charged for shipping you could have put them in a protective box with some bubble wrap. Shipping was horrible! I don't know why etrailer uses USPS. They are the most unreliable shipper in the world. The package set in a USPS center for 4 days. Which made the ETA 4 days late. In 4 days I could have driven to etrailer and pick them up and drove home. UPS or FEdX can't be that much more that USPS. I'll not be again if USPS is the only shipping option.

Mirrors are still on my truck and working great. I had to modify the mounting holes, by drilling new ones two inches in from the existing holes. I am using the mirrors on a 2006 Ford F-150XL pickup.
Arrived a day ahead of schedule even with snow storm in my area. Took mirrors out of box and had on truck within ten minutes. Look great on truck! Quick and easy to read instructions. Got them for new trailer camper I'll be picking up in April so I haven't driving with them yet, will follow up review and photos at a later date.

The product was as described and fit on my mirrors perfectly. Product was shipped in its origin item box which is not built for commercial shipping purposes. Box arrived to my home via UPS very damaged (though I don't actually know if UPS damaged the item box or if the mirrors were shipped in a damaged box by etrailer warehouse). One star deducted due to this shipping oversight. Luckily the mirror assemblies were not damaged in any way despite only light packing paper being used to wrap the mirrors in the box.
I searched a number of sources for add-on towing members but found the Longview Custom Towing Mirrors through eTrailer. I used them for the first time two days ago and couldn't be more pleased. They fit super well with appropriate buffer strips to protect my truck mirrors from any scratches or wear spots. They mount securely to maintain the rear view needed to safely tow and park my travel trailer. I highly recommend this product and am pleased with the timely and efficient way eTrailer handled my order.

Received two truck mirror extensions. Both were in individual box’s placed in an etrailer shipping box of which arrived undamaged. The drivers side mirror box inclosed was however very damaged and its contents damaged. This find revealed to me that someone at etrailer shipping had no concern at all as to the condition of product shipped. Reached out to an etrailer representative whom I emailed photos of damaged goods and he insured that a new one would be shipped. Whether I receive it in time for my departure will be determined. The etrailer representative was very attentive to my concern and promised to look into it promptly.
I like these but I would have given them 4.5 stars if possible and I'll explain below. The shipping was fast. They arrived in good shape. Right out of the box the construction didn't inspire confidence, these are lightweight. They slide on horizontally to the OEM mirror & fit snuggly, then a wedge is tightened in place between the tow mirror and the OEM mirror to prevent the tow mirror from sliding back off. The tow mirrors are easy to install and from a short distance look better than some of the other "clamp-on" styles. A plus! I have tried these a couple of times at speeds of up to 80mph (we can do that in Idaho), and yes, I don't plan to tow a trailer that fast but a strong headwind would easily exceed an 80 or 90mph effective speed. (we get that in Idaho too) During the tests they performed well, never loosened, no noticeable vibrations in the view. I was impressed. Overall, I would buy these again and recommend to a friend.

The mirrors fit my 1997 Ford F250 HD perfectly. The threaded clips and threaded nob are cheap. The plastic threads that tighten the mirror to the vehicle are easily damaged. Mirrors would be better if the clips were made better. Giving 4 stars based on the flimsy clips.
Was a little worried about mirrors fitting but am happy they fit perfectly

Great looking design, unfortunately the mirrors would not fit my expedition. I knew they were designed for the F150 when I ordered them, so no false advertising. I just took a chance. I am sure in the correct application they will work great and certainly much better than the "strap on" style of towing mirrors.
We just purchased a 2020 Ford F-150 Platinum to pull or 2023 Grand Design Imagine trailer. We ordered the Cipa mirrors and they fit perfectly!! Both sides!! Thank you “etrailer” for making our camping experience more enjoyable!!

Extension towing mirrors are great, can now see all the way back towing my 35' camper. Great product, easy install. Holds up great at 70mph.
Worked great. Installed this in literally 2 minutes. Now I can see around our camper, and have a visual of the trailer tires while pulling!

Can't find something that fits this good! I have a 2002 Ford Ranger and am pulling a '67 Shasta Compact - the trailer is not very big, but these new mirrors are going to add a LOT of extra visibility when it comes to my husband telling me how to back up - HAH! And when they are on, they look like they came with the truck. The added mirror size is impressive and you can manually adjust the mirror.
These work great on my 2001 Mazda truck. I use them when towing my 17 travel trailer. I’ve tried various clip-on, suction cup, and strap-on extension mirrors. Some time or another, these mirrors will suddenly give and fall off. I don’t have to worry about that with these Longview mirrors. Wish I had found these years ago.

These mirrors seem to be well-made and are advertised as fitting all Ford vans from 1997 - 2002. I own a 1999 E350, and while the mirrors slide over the existing mirrors, they do not quite match the external shape of my mirrors - which are the stock factory mirrors . My mirrors are also a bit wider than these mirrors were designed for, so the hole for the attaching clamp does not extend far enough to the inside for the provided attachment clamp to fit through it. I was able to fabricate a clamp using a large picture hangar hook, a 3.5 inch 10-32 bolt, an aluminum sleeve cut at 45 degrees, a couple of washers and a nut, so I will be able to use the mirrors, but it has taken a bit of doing. Can't really find anything else other than complete factory mirror replacement, so for me, they should do the job.
The CTM2500 Fit my 2000 Ford E250 van power factory mirrors very nicely. They mounted easily and with the single screw knob clamped up tight. They also folded-in with the factory mirrors. I have not had the opportunity to "use" the mirrors while towing yet. The CTM2500 mirrors look real good mounted on my van (see photos).

Worked great for towing our travel trailer.
Simply installed and removed, these mirrors make all the difference when towing our 33’ trailer. They easily adjust to allow the best views of both the trailer and surrounding traffic. I highly recommend this product.

Just installed them and tried. It would be great if they did not vibrate that much; unfortunately they do; so we will have to find a way to improve it.
easy to use. works well.
