  • Tow Mirror Recommendation for 2023 Toyota Tundra
    We have one set of universal style tow mirrors that fit your 2023 Toyota Tundra with the K-Source mirrors part # KS69ZR which we had the chance to install on a similar 2022 Tundra which I attached a review video for. We found the install was easy, the mirror was stable, and the wider view provided was helpful.

  • Towing Mirrors for a 2018 Nissan Titan
    We do have towing mirrors that fit your 2018 Nissan Titan but unfortunately the CIPA Custom Towing Mirror # 11501 is not tested and approved to fit your vehicle. Instead you will need to stick with the CIPA Universal Dual Lens Towing Mirrors # 11953-2 or the CIPA Universal Towing Mirrors # CM11980-2. Attached are review videos for both that you can reference.

  • What Tow Mirrors do You Recommend for My 2015 Nissan Frontier?
    The best replacement towing mirrors to use on your 2015 Nissan Frontier while towing a 28-foot travel trailer is the K-Source Universal Towing Mirrors - Clip On - Flat Mirror # KS69ZR. Not only will these mirrors provide you with an additional 7-3/4" of width x 5-1/8" of height to your side visibility, but they come with a strap system that provides you a super snug fit to avoid vibration. The simple strap system greatly minimize the potential for vibration because there are no clamp fasteners...

  • Replacement Clamps for CIPA Tow Mirrors part # CM11980-2
    Yes, we do offer replacement clamps for the CIPA tow mirrors part # CM11980-2 that you referenced. For that you'd want the part # CM11980C which is a single clamp.

  • Recommended Temporary Towing Mirrors for a 2014 Ford Expedition
    I have two great temporary towing mirrors options for your 2014 Ford Expedition and they will not interfere with your factory heated mirror feature. For this, I recommend using either the K-Source Universal Towing Mirrors part # KS3891-2 or the CIPA Universal Towing Mirrors part # CM11980-2. The CIPA and K-Source options both work very well and are perfect non-permanent options for you. The main difference between them is that the K-Source option will be more secure but the CIPA option...

  • What Towing Mirrors Will Fit The 2024 Toyota 4Runner?
    Thanks for reaching out, Mark. We do offer towing mirrors that will fit your 2024 Toyota 4Runner, but there are no custom fit snap-on mirrors available. We do have a few universal mirrors that have been confirmed to fit the 2024 4Runner. For something that will not interfere with the cameras or sensors, I recommend the CIPA Universal Towing Mirrors - Clamp On # CM11980-2. These clip on to the top of the factory mirror. They are telescoping and the mirror surface is adjustable, so they make...

  • Tow Mirror Recommendation for 2017 GMC Sierra 1500 with Telescoping Mirrors
    As long as your mirrors don't have the chrome casing on them the best solution is the CIPA Towing Mirrors part # CM11980-2 which will clip to the top lip of your telescoping mirrors for a wider viewing angle. There are no slip-on style mirrors that fit the telescoping mirrors you have on your truck currently.

  • Towing Mirrors for 2017 Nissan Titan
    There are options for towing mirrors for your 2017 Nissan Titan, but not for replacement mirrors that you would be able to extend out. So instead you are going to need a universal option, the clamp-on CIPA Universal Towing Mirrors # CM11980-2 (which are on a 2017 Titan in the accompanying photo) or the clip-on K-Source Universal Dual Lens Towing Mirrors # KS3990. I have also added a link to a video install of the CIPA mirrors for you on a '17 Nissan Titan along with a road test that shows...

  • Tow Mirror Recommendation for 2019 Honda Odyssey
    The CIPA # CM11980-2 and # 7070 are both good choices that we've test fit on a 2019 Odyssey with good results (see linked videos). Either choice would work fine for you, but I personally prefer the # KS3891-2 from K-Source due to the ratcheting straps used to hold the towing mirror to the factory mirror housing. The ratcheting straps allow for a tight fit which helps minimize vibration which therefore would provide a clearer view of what's going on behind and next to you while towing. I'll...

  • Choosing Between the CIPA and K-Source Universal Towing Mirrors for a 2008 Ford Expedition
    Although I have not heard of the CIPA Universal Fit Towing Mirror CIPA Universal Towing Mirrors part # CM11980-2 blowing off when attached properly I can say that the K-Source Universal Towing Mirrors part # KS3891-2 are a much more secure option. The reason for this is that they have two large straps which go around the whole backside of the mirror as opposed to using clamps on the top lip. The main advantage that the CIPA Universal Fit Towing Mirror CIPA Universal Towing Mirrors have...

  • Compatible Towing Mirror for 2008 Ford E-150
    The CIPA Custom Towing Mirrors - Slip On - Driver Side and Passenger Side # CM11800 are a custom fit for the F-series trucks. The 2004 - 2014 Ford F-150 trucks are what they fit. For your 2008 Ford E-150, we have custom extendable towing mirrors and then universal fit options. For the full replacements you can use # KS61199-00F for electric adjustment or # KS61201-02F for manual adjustment. If you don't want to replace the mirrors then I recommend using the CIPA Universal Towing Mirrors...

  • Tow Mirror Recommendation for 2015 Nissan Frontier
    The best tow mirror solution we have for your 2015 Nissan Frontier would be the K-Source tow mirrors part # KS3990 that we had the chance to install on a 2015 Nissan Frontier and found they fit great, provided excellent visibility and were very secure. I attached a link to a demo video that shows us installing and using these mirrors on your exact truck. The part # CM11980-2 is a fit for your truck but it's not my favorite option as I just don't really like how it attaches to the mirror...

  • Will CIPA Universal Towing Mirrors Prevent Factory Mirrors From Rotating on 2019 Nissan Pathfinder
    I reached out to CIPA and the CIPA Universal Towing Mirrors # CM11980-2 is tapered to insert into the gap between the vehicle mirror housing and the mirror face. Since it will allow for normal mirror operation it will also give you enough clearance for your mirrors to rotate down when in reverse. I have attached an installation video for your reference.

  • Can the Arm On the CIPA Universal Towing Mirrors Be Replaced
    It sounds like you may have the CIPA Universal Towing Mirrors part # CM11980-2. If that is the case then although they don't offer the replacement parts you need, you can purchase just one mirror instead of the entire set, the CIPA Universal Fit Towing Mirror part # CM11980.

  • Recommended Towing Mirrors for a 2016 Chevrolet Colorado
    The CIPA Universal Fit Towing Mirrors part # 40375-2 will most likely fit the factory side mirrors on your 2016 Chevrolet Colorado. This has not yet been tested but I would say it is a pretty safe bet to assume they will. For a set of towing mirrors that we have confirmed fit of, I recommend the CIPA Universal Towing Mirrors part # CM11980-2 or the K-Source Universal Towing Mirrors part # KS3891-2. These mirrors will both do an excellent job of extending your field of view. The CIPA...

    A great option for a set of clamp-on style towing mirrors for your 2022 Ford Ranger is the CIPA Universal Towing Mirrors - Clamp On # CM11980-2. Not only does this offer you 7-1/2" wide x 4-5/8" tall surface area of additional visibility, these mirrors also come with adjustable bars that allow you to position each mirror closer or farther from your vehicle.

  • Recommended Towing Mirrors for a 2020 Honda Ridgeline
    There are really only two types of towing mirror options for a 2020 Honda Ridgeline, clip-on and clamp-on. If you have already tried the clip-on then the next option you'll want to try is clamp-on, the CIPA Universal Towing Mirrors part # CM11980-2 which work well for most vehicles. That said, this is not really a popular tow vehicle so towing mirror options are limited. There are no custom fit options but I do think these will work well for this vehicle.

  • Tow Mirror that Fits 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Better than Mirrors with Rubber Straps
    Sorry to hear about the K-Source mirrors # KS3891-2 not fitting well to the housing of your 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Due to the tapered size of the outer housing I can see how the straps aren't going to be as secure as you'd like. The best option would be the CIPA set part # CM11980-2 which would clip just to the top of the of the mirror housing which would eliminate any issues caused by straps or the shape of the mirror housing.

  • Best CIPA Universal Fit Towing Mirrors For My 2009 Mercedes-Benz GL 550
    I like the CIPA Towing Mirrors # CM11952-2 because they are a universal fit and wrap around the whole mirror. I like this type of mirror better than the CIPA Clamp On # CM11980-2 mirrors just because its a bit more of a secure fit in my opinion. Some vehicles like your 2009 Mercedes-Benz GL 550 do not have a custom fit mirror, but the universal CIPA mirrors have a great snug fit! They are about 7-1/2 inches wide and about 4-3/4 inches tall. They can tilt and pivot to get you the perfect...
