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.
I have a 2002 f150 Lariat supercrew with the turn signals on the mirrors and these fit perfectly over them with plenty of room to still adjust the mirror. I tow a 19ft travel trailer and can now see the traffic behind me, no more hoping there is no one coming up on me as I change lanes, and the mirrors barely vibrate so you can see very clearly in them. They fit nice and snug on the truck mirror so there is no worry about them moving around or falling off. The only negative for me is the bottom clip scrapes up the truck mirror a bit every time I take them on or off, so be carefull. Overall very happy with them.

K-Source Universal Dual Lens Towing Mirrors - Clip On - Pair
These worked great on my wife's Yukon. Installation instructions were clear and direct. They held up very well traveling 75 mph down the interstate; No jostling around or coming loose. I loved the additional two mirrors. Having the three total different angles while pulling a trailer was extremely helpful. Would highly recommend this setup.
ordering was easy. the product was delivered quickly and without damage. I have a 2023 Colorado Z71 and was concerned about how the towing mirrors were going to attach to the tapered factory mirrors. the fit is superb. no movement during use so far.. I would recommend these to a friend.

K-Source Universal Towing Mirrors - Clip On - Convex Mirror - Qty 2
After reading lots of reviews on several mirrors, I decided to buy the K-Source Universal Towing Mirrors. Oh how I wish my truck could use the ones that slip over the existing mirrors! I was prepared for a fight, based on reviews, and boy did I get one! I truly needed a third hand when figuring out how to attach these. I was bound and determined that I could do this on my own. No mirrors were going to defeat me! I did ask my husband to come look at them. He started to help but I shewed him away. After a lot of words that don’t normally come out of my mouth and a few tears, the first one was on! Then I had to go do it again in the other side! I’m pretty sure the neighbors heard me yelling. But I persisted! Lo and behold, this 67 year old Grammy did it! It was clear they would not stay on by themselves, so I grabbed a couple of bungee cords and wrapped them around the housing and they aren’t going anywhere. I have left them on my truck. No way I’m going thru that every time we return from camping. I will take them off at the end of camping season. Delivery was really fast. I was disappointed that one box was brand new and the other was smashed and taped, an obvious return. I would have been very unhappy if there was a piece missing or if something was wrong since this was my first purchase with etrailer. Overall, the mirrors work, they do not shake and I find I don’t use the truck mirrors now. Very happy with my purchase.
Fitted on 2024 Toyota Tundra SR5 CrewMax Cab w/ Stock Mirrors No vibration issues with either mirror. Turned left and right side clip on mirrors vertical so the did not overlap truck mirrors. Right side no problem with attachment and was able to adjust truck mirror. Could also see father back along right side of a 24’ travel trailer than just looking in truck mirror. Don’t expect to see behind on right side any vehicles tucked up close. Left side mirror attachment had to be modified so I could adjust truck mirror without interfering with clip on mirror lower L “hooks”. I put a rubber blocks under the lower L hooks so they were low enough to get under truck mirror glass yet still clamp to truck mirror housing. A picture tells the story. 7,000 km/4,200 miles later and neither mirror has loosened or moved. No vibration or distortion. Yes, I ran 2 zip ties as safety “chains” from the back straps to truck mirror arm just in case, they’re barely snug. I recommend these.

Easier to install than I expected. Minimal vibration with much-improved rearward visibilty. Easyto remove also. Does scuff the fixed mirror but controllable with wax.
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!

CIPA Universal Towing Mirrors - Clamp On - Qty 2
So far, so good. I received the CIPA mirrors today and immediately installed them. Installation instructions are straight forward. I took a test drive of about 15 miles; there was no noticeable shake or rattle and the mounts did not loosen. As with factory curbside mirrors, objects are closer than they appear with the CIPA mirrors, too. Our first trip towing is a couple weeks from now. I will update my review after the trip.
The view is excellent. The mirrors do not vibrate. In speeds over 50mph, the tube would turn inside the clamps and the mirrors would turn upward, making them useless. Solution: I cut off a finger from a nitrile rubber glove and pushed it over the tube. Now the mirrors stay put.

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.
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!!!!

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.
Worked well and as expected. Still can't see as far behind the camper as I would like on the passenger side. Strap them on tight. They shook very litte but some, not enough to be bothersome. Later,I did find them less expensive elsewhere, oh well. Straping them on is tricky to not cover the cameras underneath the truck mirrors. Truthfully I use the camera on the back of the camper along with these mirrors and get additional views from the Chevy cameras as well. I'm not a truck driver and only pull the camper on occasion so I need all the "eyes" I can get especially driving through Nashville and Atlanta.

The company was fast and gave lots of updates for shipping. Once i received product my concerns were met. The straps are BARELY long enough to connect around my mirror. Once it is straped properly the tension on straps pulls them right out of the retaining clip. I ordered these because i have a 11 silverado just like what was in the product pictures. Save your money and get something else because theres no way these will make it down the highway they will barely stay on just sitting here. Kinda disappointed because i bout these for our first camping trip this weekend but these will not work. Seems like a good company just crappy product.
So-so construction and design. With one modification they're more than acceptable. The arms and straps will slip and loosen if installed on triangular or tapered housings. Mirrors that have backs nearly parallel to the mirror face, and have upper and lower mirror edges that are nearly parallel are not affected. Adding a peel and stick plastic wall hanger to a tapered housing will stop the strap from slipping and loosening. The ball and socket mount is good and tight, but the stud on the ball is loose in the arm. I think most of the jitter and vibration others report is from this sloppy clearance that the stud screw can't tighten enough. I'll be addressing that as well. A nice option for those of us that a) don't tow a majority of the time and don't want full time extended mirrors, and/or b) tow with multiple vehicles and prefer to have adjustability to fit our 'fleet'.

Unable to tighten mirror clamps enough to eliminate mirror from shaking, preventing clear image while driving.
The mirrors were just what I needed and work well on my Toyota highlander.

Haven’t had a chance to use these but did put them on my truck to get them adjusted. Easy to install and look like they will give me good coverage.
The Universal fit towing Mirrors-THis is easy to put on and off and gives great visibility when towing our boat

CIPA Custom Towing Mirrors - Slip On - Driver Side and Passenger Side
I would like it to be extendable a bit further on the passenger side. The driver's side is fine though. The passenger side does not let one see far enough away from the side of the trailer. All in all, I like it better than drilling holes into the doors of my pickup to install huge mirrors. These look way better and are sufficient.
Proper fit, I have not trouble putting the mirrors on or off

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.

Oh I like the mirrors, my only problem with them is that I wish either the hooks or the knobs were just a bit longer as they barely connect, but they do connect. Several years ago we ordered some mirrors for our van and they served us real well and I am sure these will as well. It isn't e-trailers fault, but the box arrived somewhat beat up. I have fitted the mirrors on our truck, but haven't had the chance to actually use them yet. 6 inches of rain has kinda kept us in the house.
One side does not stay adjusted and cannot see way to tighten. Was advertised as not blocking lights in mirror, not true as they are most certainly blocked.Otherwise good fitment and easy in install.

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
So far this might do the trick . A bit concerned on stability after long trip .. we shall see in time !! The passenger side is not as tight as drivers .. again time will tell .

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.

I would have given 5 stars except for the following: 1. The box was opened when it was delivered. The usps seal was broken. 2. Passenger mirror was scuffed with white scrape residue cosmetic but still; new should be new. 3. The shipping box was the same as the product box allowing and all to “inspect”. The fit was good, and they look good at first placement. It would certainly be better if it came with at least one set of af attachment hardware. Can this be obtained somewhere?
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 mirrors were extremely easy and the fit is perfect. These look almost like a factory option installation. All lamp and cameras are exposed and not blocked. The individual mirrors are easily adjustable. Great product! Very pleased.
These mirrors helped tremendously when towing my Micro Minnie travel trailer versus stock mirrors on my GMC SIERRA 1500. The extended mirrors enabled to better determine when it was safe to move back into my lane after passing a vehicle and allowed me to see better the vehicles behind trailer. Although there was an occasional slight vibration in the passenger side mirror, it did not disrupt the usability of the mirrors. The towing mirrors took only a minute or two to install and fit perfectly on the stock mirrors. Adjusting them properly takes a little more time and is easier when a second person helps. I am extremely pleased with this purchase!

CIPA Custom Towing Mirrors - Slip On - Driver Side and Passenger Side
Good concept but, functionally does not perform. I ordered custom mirrors for my 2024 Silverado which has cameras on the mirror and the slip ons covered them up. Also, the mirrors do not have enough adjustment for me to see the side of my trailer. I thought custom meant that these would take into account the actual equipment on my truck.
When installed they look better than any other add on mirror. The wedge that goes behind the lock screw takes a little time to get aligned, but theses mirrors did not move at all on a 1100 mile trip and did not require any re-tightening. They gave a good view of trailer and I am very satisfied with them.
