  • Towing Mirrors for a 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee L
    Hey, Kevin. I'm really sorry to hear that you're having so many issues with the other style of mirrors. There is a clamp on mirror, part # CM11980. It will clamp on the outer shell of the mirrors. I included some pics of how the are supposed to fit as well as an inventive way another customer of ours attached them to their Jeep. You don't need much space for it to clamp between the side mirror shell. The part that slides between that space is 1/16" thick at the thickest point. These...

  • Towing Mirror Recommendation for 2017 Nissan Titan
    We installed the CIPA towing mirrors part # CM11980 on a similar 2017 Nissan Titan as yours and we found they fit and worked well. We also installed the # 11953 on a 2017 Nissan Titan and they worked well too. If you scroll down you'll see the two install vids we did for each mirror on your truck.

  • Tow Mirror Recommendation for 2005 Ford Expedition Eddie Bauer
    What is the year/make/model of your vehicle? With that I can get you the best mirror solution for your vehicle. I don't think a clip on universal style will fit well with your turn signals though.

  • Recommended Towing Mirrors for 2003 Ford F-350
    If you have manual mirrors, I recommend the K-Source Custom Extendable Towing Mirrors - Manual - Driver and Passenger Side, # KS61067-68F. These are custom fit mirrors for your vehicle that extend 21-1/2 inches from the side of your truck when extended and 18 inches when retracted. I've attached a video review of this product for you. The mirror faces are adjustable for you. If you want the power, heated version of these mirrors, I recommend the # KS61095-96F.

  • Do You Carry Replacement Clamps On My CIPA Towing Mirrors Model 11980?
    Hey Scott, Assuming the 11980 model you have is the CIPA Towing Mirror # CM11980. If it is then we absolutely have a replacement clamp for you. What you'll need is the part # CM11980C and you'll be all set. What are you towing with that truck of yours?

  • Does CIPA Tow Mirror # CM11980 Fit 2017 Acura MDX
    Yes, we have found that the CIPA tow mirror part # CM11980 will fit and work well on a 2017 Acura MDX like what you have. I attached an install video for this mirror on a similar Honda Pilot for you to check out as well.

  • Looking for Single CIPA Universal Towing Mirror
    Hey Mark, yes we do sell the CIPA universal towing mirrors individually with the part # CM11980. Did you lose one or did you only happen to have one?

  • Towing Mirror Options for 2020 Ford Transit 250
    The K-Source Custom Extendable Towing Mirrors, KS62049-50G, that you reference are not for a 2020 Ford Transit T250 but for a GM vehicle. Currently we do not have custom fit towing mirrors for the 2020 Ford Transit, only the universal fit such as the CIPA Universal Fit Towing Mirror, # CM11980.

  • Tow Mirror Recommendation for 2024 Ford Transit T350
    Hey Adam, sorry for the confusion on that but for a tow mirror option you'd want the CIPA part # CM11980 that can clip to the top of the mirror housing but we don't have any custom fit options at this time.

  • Recommended Door-Mount Towing Mirrors for 1998 Toyota Tacoma
    There is no add-on support for the CIPA Universal Fit Towing Mirror # CM11980 to prevent it from being moved by wind resistance at highway speeds, but there are other types of universal-fit towing mirrors that attach directly to the vehicle's body, rather than to the OEM mirror, that may serve you better. CIPA offers a door-mount towing mirror # 11650 that installs independently of your OEM mirrors. These provide over a foot of extension out from the vehicle for a broad field of view behind...

  • Tow Mirrors that Can Fit 2017 Nissan Titan xD
    We installed the CIPA towing mirrors part # CM11980 on a similar 2018 Nissan Titan as yours and we found they fit and worked well. We also installed the # 11953 on a 2017 Nissan Titan and they worked well too. If you scroll down you'll see the two install vids we did for each mirror on your truck. I also attached a picture of the mirror installed on a Titan like yours too.

  • Recommended Towing Mirrors For 2017 Chevy Traverse
    For your 2017 Chevy Traverse, I recommend the CIPA Dual-View Clip-On Towing Mirror, # 11953. This is a confirmed fit for your vehicle. CIPA's new dual-view clip-on towing mirror features two fully adjustable mirror surfaces to allow you to fully customize your viewing area. The easy-adjustable arms fit most applications but are a confirmed fit for your vehicle. It has an aerodynamic enclosed head design to help reduce vibration. It installs with no tools required.

  • Wiring Harness Recommendation for Installing Hayes Brake Controller in 2014 GMC Sierra 1500
    Easiest solution would be the brake controller install harness part # HA81798-HBC which is a confirmed fit for your 2014 GMC Sierra 1500 and is designed for use with the Hayes Syncronizer # HA81725. This would plug in on your truck in place of the wiring harness you have found. Aside from that we don't know the wire color functions of your truck so you'd have to test them individually with a tester like part # PTW2993.

    The CIPA # CM11980 is a universal fit mirror that clamps onto your factory side-view mirror to extend your line of sight while you're towing. This would be the reason you were unable to find it in the custom fit section under towing mirrors for your 2016 Ram 1500. This will fit a manual or powered mirror with a lip between the housing and the glass. Check out the installation video I have attached at the 1:14 minute mark. This will show the adjustable clamps the mirror uses to mount....

  • Universal Towing Mirror Recommendation for a 2006 Land Rover LR3
    For your 2006 Land Rover LR3 I recommend the K-Source towing mirror set # KS3990. These mirrors will fit around factory side mirrors that have a lip or gap between the glass and mirror housing. I checked some images of your make and model vehicle and it does have the compatible type of side mirrors from what I could see. I have included a link to a video review of these mirrors for you.

  • Towing Mirror Recommendation for 2018 Hyundai Santa Fe
    While we do not have a custom fit tow mirror designed for your 2018 Hyundai Santa Fe we do have universal style mirrors that will install securely and work very well to give you better visibility when towing. The part # CM11980 is a very simple design that works well for the newer Hyundai Santa Fes like yours. It can be installed on either side of the vehicle as well. Check out the review video I attached for more info. In it you'll see it installed on a 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe very similar...

  • Tow Mirror Recommendation for 2010 Ford Explorer Sport Trac
    I checked out the mirrors on the 2010 Ford Explorer Sport Trac and since the bottom of the mirror is angled in the best tow mirror is going to be the CIPA part # CM11980 which clips to the top of the mirror housing. Check out the picture I attached as well as the review video I attached for this mirror as well.

  • What is Difference Between CIPA Towing Mirrors # CM11980 and # CM11980-2
    The difference between the two part numbers is the quantity of the mirror assemblies that comes with it. The part # CM11980 is the mirror sold individually whereas the # CM11980-2 is for a pair of them.

  • Will CIPA Universal Fit Towing Mirror CM11980 Fit 2016 Nissan Frontier Mirrors
    The CIPA Universal Fit Towing Mirror, part # CM11980 is designed to clamp to the upper lip of your side view mirror. We have not had a chance to install this mirror on a 2016 Frontier yet but if your mirror has a lip between the mirror glass and the mirror housing it should work well for you. I have attached a photo of the # CM11980 installed on a mirror you can check out.
