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.

K-Source Universal Towing Mirror - Clip On - Convex Mirror - Qty 1
These mirrors are good, but not great. I bought these because nothing else fits my 2004 Ford Expedition. They allow me to see around my trailer much better than the factory mirrors, but the have a slight vibration driving down the road. They also make a very noticeable noise from the wind going between the factory mirror and this product. Finally, one of the straps came off when I tightened it a bit too much, but didn't break. The picture below was done in humor (I took my trailer through a drive through, thought it was really funny, and had to take a picture. The picture is a good shot of the mirrors.)
I've compared these KS3891 clip-ons with at least one of the snap-on variety (KS81600), and found this clip-on product with larger mirrors, that can adjust tall or wide, offers a significantly broader view on both sides of the vehicle, which is the most important peforrmance aspect for me. However, there are installation and fit issues with my 1999 Ford Expedition Eddie Bauer Series with contoured mirrors. - The passenger side mirror housing of the Ford has a slightly different shape than the driver side, causing the lower left KS3891 clamp to not fit snug to my passenger side mirror. See photos attached. While the driver side KS3891 fits tightly and parallel to my truck mirror, without movement, the left side is prone to a bit more slippage and doesn't feel as secure. The round contour of my mirrors may pose further problems given the front clamp is not fully engaged on the passenger side. I'm confident the driver side is secure, but the passenger side... will it stay on? Time will tell. - The KS3891 front clamps are thick, and make contact with the Ford mirror glass, impeding my ability to fully adjust my Ford mirrors in certain directions. - As others have noted, the upper ratchet straps are plastic (only the lower straps are rubber). Since I have to really ratchet these tightly on my rounded mirrors, seems clear to me that these will wear out sooner than later. - The upper straps make contact with the upper Ford mirror housing - see photo - and would certainly start leaving their mark if not protected. I added felt tabs to address this - a simple fix. - These never go on in exactly the same position, and are more clunky than the stylish snap-on KS81600, but ultimately, the KS3891s seem to provide the best, broadest view on both sides of the vehicle, so I'm going to stick with them, and hope they stay on securely and without vibration, especially on the passenger side.

K-Source Universal Dual Lens Towing Mirrors - Clip On - Pair
Using on an 2017 Ford Expedition. Installing them is easy. The universal mirrors does increase the viewing area when pulling a large travel trailer. I gave 4 stars because it is hard to get it adjusted to get the right coverage with the smaller mirror. For short trips I leave them in place rather than taking them off and then having to go through the process of readjusting. Not a bad purchase but if I had to replace them I would probably go with a single mirror instead of the dual mirror. The original expedition mirrors can cover about 85% of the needed view without moving the mirrors so its that last little bit that I am trying to see easily (without readjusting original mirrors on the fly)
I am very pleased with my order and the service I received from Bryan W. When I need other items I will certainly look at etrailer.

K-Source Universal Towing Mirrors - Clip On - Convex Mirror - Qty 2
Good results at a fair price. Stay in place at highway speeds with no vibration/wobble. Would have related them a 5 star if not for the way the straps connect to the mirror arms. A little more aggressive type snap-on would help keep the attached while mounting. I use them on a 2023 Expedition Max pulling a 25’ Airstream
The mirrors were purchased for a trip from Ga to Anchorage, AK to assist with a 20' cargo trailer and Ford Expedition. They performed wonderfully and handled the extreme weather.

K-Source Universal Towing Mirrors - Clip On - Flat Mirror - Qty 2
I went right away to try them on my truck. I have a 24 Denali ultimate 1500 Denali and I have a couple of cameras on my side mirrors. The straps are easy to maneuver around the cameras to avoid issues there. Good snug fit I have not taken it out yet to test these in real road conditions but so far so good.

K-Source Snap & Zap Custom Towing Mirrors - Snap On - Driver and Passenger Side
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.

K-Source Snap & Zap Custom Towing Mirrors - Snap On - Driver and Passenger Side
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 emailed a question about this mirror fitting my 2013 F150 STX 4x4. The response was NO but when I googled custom mirrors another etrailer link came up with a response that it would fit and several STX customers were happy with this model. I'm towing a 24' camping trailer and got to use these mirrors just last week. I can really see much more with the addition of the towing mirrors, especially cars and trucks behind me. Drove local roads and highways. For the money this is one extra safety feature for towing! And when I got home I easily removed the mirrors and placed them in a split bag for storage. Pictures are of my 2013 F150 STX 4x4 mirrors and then with the tow mirrors installed.

K-Source Snap & Zap Custom Towing Mirrors - Snap On - Driver and Passenger Side
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.
These mirrors are GREAT!! Exactly what I've been looking for. The fit, adjustability, look are awesome!! They look like they are factory installed. We tow a travel trailer (now with a 2011 Suburban) and vision from the passenger side has always been a problem. I have tried others from different sources on different tow vehicles: there is no comparison and they are cheaper too!! I am so glad I found etrailer.com. Just plug in your info and the solution to your problem is found!
