Specs:
These adjustable, universal-fit dual lens towing mirrors expand your field of vision so you can better see your trailer or anything else that is behind you. The ratcheting strap system gives you a snug fit that reduces mirror vibration. Because the mirror arms adjust into several shapes, it can be attached to either the driver's-side or passenger's-side mirror on a variety of vehicles. Each of the mirror's mounting arms is jointed behind the mirror so the arms pivot inward or outward, and 2 additional joints in the middle of each arm add further adjustability so you get the perfect fit.
Built-in clips on the arms will grab the lip between the glass on your factory mirror and the factory housing. These clips are also adjustable to fit the thickness of your mirror housing.
The ratcheting system uses heavy-duty rubber straps to tighten the towing mirror securely over your existing mirror. A quick-release button in the middle of the ratchet lever allows you to unlock the ratchet mechanism for fast strap adjustment or easy removal of the mirror. When you install the towing mirror, use the ratchet lever to tighten the straps. When you have the straps securely on your mirror, close the ratchet covers over the ratchets to lock them in place.
A ball joint behind the mirror allows you to manually adjust the mirror face to different viewing angles. You can also turn the entire mirror face to a horizontal or vertical position - whatever works best for your application. Rubber pads on the straps protect the back of your factory mirror to prevent scratches when this mirror is installed for towing. Tools and other hardware aren't needed for installation, and the tight fit means there is no danger of losing these mirrors on the side of the road. You'll be ready to travel in minutes, and the increased field of vision will allow you to cruise the highways stress free.

Universal dual lens towing mirror clips over one of your existing side mirrors to give you an extended rear view. A ratcheting strap system creates a snug fit to reduce vibration. Driver's and passenger's side. Tool-free installation.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.
Originally purchased for a 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee and replaced with a 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The mirrors worked great on both vehicles even with slightly different mirror shapes. I worry a bit about over tightening the straps but they work great and stay in place. I also used on a 2013 Toyota Tacoma a couple of times and worked equally. Well worth the cost!
The KS3990 works on the 2024, Jeep Grand Cherokee L Summit. I have not driven with them yet, I'm confidant they will do the job. The two mirrors are fully adjustable which is what I needed towing travel trailer. There are sensors in the mirrors on the Summit model that are now covered by one of the straps. Nothing I can do about it. I thought of crossing the straps but they are too short. If the straps had a swivel to allow for a little more adjustability due to the odd shape of the car mirror that would help miss the sensor too.
The mirror was fine. It took some adjusting but it fit the Gen 3 Tundra and provided a decent rear view. I quickly discovered I don't need it for the Gen 3 Tundra. The mirror on the truck is plenty adequate to see the sides of my trailer.
These mirrors do not work as advertised. They require bungee cords to hold the straps in place on the 2024 grand Cherokee l factory mirrors. Disappointing
Work well once they’re on but they take a bit of practice to mount; understandable being universal fit.
Great product high quality. Allows me to back my trailer without a backup camera.

Still great, sturdy product. In addition to facilitating backup, allows better view of surrounding traffic.
I've tried multiple mirror styles on the Ford Explorer and these are the best. They stay on the mirrors which are curved and do a great job while towing the camper. The view is excellent and the quality outstanding. Highly recommend these. Other mirrors actually fell off on the highway as the small tabs that slide into the vehicle mirror housings are made of white metal and as you put pressure on them they crack.
The ratchet style connectors make this a perfect device for these curved mirrors on the car.

One year later and they are working great! We have taken many trips and so far they are the best.
This extension mirror work well for towing our small trailer. It's supposed to fit our 2015 Audi Q5 which was what I entered when ordering. The problem is this mirror housing has an extreme curve and the mirror would slide off without another attachment aid. Before taking on the road the first time I attached a nylon strap with a Fastex buckle (3 ft from REI), tying the mirror arm back to where the mirror connects to the car body, and that did the trick.

I e used these mirrors for 2 years now, logging about 7 or 8,000 mi. They are very functional, have held up well and are fairly easy to install and remove. The fit issue I discussed in my first review stands: because of the curvebulge in my Audi mirror housing I have to use a strap to pull the mirror back towards the car to keep from sliding off.
This is my second pair of towing mirrors. The first ones were the twentysomething dollars and a big disappointing. I was spending over five minutes to arrange them just to start driving and have them move and be almost useless. These are fitting so much better on my 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee! The attachment system is ferm and with a better grip on the mirror, the entire assembly is suddenly part of the car and the best thing is that you can adjust the two mirrors without moving the entire thing. When in the right position, you can see a lot more in the mirror so you can confidently move your trailer. Very satisfied with this product, fits very well despite being universal.

After one year of using these I am more than satisfied with this purchase. Every time the set up is fast and the mirrors are staying in the right place making them perfect right away. I am towing a wider travel trailer and these are providing the visibility I need.
While this looks like a well made product, it didn't fit securely on my 2020 KIA Telluride. The back of the mirror on the Telluride is egg shaped, and even closing the door shook the towing mirror enough that it started to slip off.

I know that mirrors like these can be tricky to securely install. We do have a video where we did on a 2020 Kia Telluride that I have linked below. It sounds like the mirror shape is the same that you have described. if they are different please let me know.
The mirrors were easy-to-use and provided excellent views of the traffic and road to the rear and sides of our camper trailer. No vibrations, very sturdy. A great purchase. Great quality and very much worth the price.

They are still GREAT ??. Anyone towing a camper needs these they are easy-to-use and are an excellent safety addition for your tow vehicle.
2019 Toyota 4runner. These seem like they are well made, but not made to fit on a 4runner very securely... First off, the mirrors were probably returns as there was no manufacturing packaging and were in ripped up plastic sleeves, no instructions or documentation. Also, looked like dried bugs on the buckles and straps as if they had seen a few miles on the highway. I watched a couple of videos to get the idea of how they were to be installed. Installation went well, but I just couldn't get them to a point where they did not want to slip off the mirror with a little jiggling. That had more to do with the shape of the mirrors on my vehicle (kind of wedge-shaped and rounded to the outer edge) more than anything as they will get as tight as you want to go. Will be returning...
The pad that goes against the factory mirror could be grippier. Lost an identical mirror that was as tight as I dared make it. I may apply some grip strips for additional insurance. Otherwise they worked just fine.
they are not much, they don't attach soundly and would probably fall off going down the road.
I was very disappointed these mirrors were shipped in a thin display box without a cardboard box to protect them. I have attached a photo of the box bottom. Mirrors appear to be ok but not sure I would chance ordering anything more from you.
Easily adjustable mirrors. They fit my car well and stay put despite windy conditions. Appreciated their follow up one year after purchase. 5/5 would recommend
This is the third set of mirrors I have installed on different vehicles. I bought these for my 2019 Ford Expedition and tow a 25 foot trailer. Once they are installed on the vehicle's mirrors they work fine, providing both near and distant views of the trailer and road. Because of the rounded shape of the Expedition's mirrors these mirrors are finicky to install, requiring multiple adjustments to get them properly placed. This is as much a criticism of the Expedition's mirrors as it is the K-Source mirrors--they are "universal" after all. The first time I used the mirrors I was fearful that they would come off at 70 mph but they stay in place and there is limited amount of vibration--I get a clear view. I was attracted to these mirrors because of the double view and that has been excellent.
I bought these for my 2014 Expedition as there were no "slip-on" type mirrors available at the time. After some trail in fitting these they worked well. I towed a 22' car hauler from Kansas to Reno NV and back with no problems. I did find that after they were on the vehicle awhile the straps needed to adjusted and tightened up but the ratchet type straps worked well for that. Also, no marring of my painted mirrors. They even retract with the folding mirrors I have on this truck. Pictures attached are the only two I have kind of showing the mirrors, not too good. etrailer has always been good to deal with. I would recommend these strap on mirrors. I wish they made the slip on type mirror for this year Expedition as it has a cleaner look.
I've had these mirrors for a year now. I have talked with other campers about thier mirriors. I think the ones i have are about the best you can get, for a removeable mirror. They take some getting used to. They go on and fasten easy, and they do no slip. I use the outter most connector slot, so if /when it cracks, you still have an inner slot to use. I would by the same mirrors again
Very pleased with the product and delivered directly on time thank you very much will be purchasing more in the future
I purchased the KS3990 Universal Dual Lens Clip-On pair of mirrors and found them to be easily installed on my 2016 F-150 Ford truck mirrors. The on-line help video for the 2016 F150 was helpful. They seem to be fairly well secured onto the existing mirrors, which are NOT actually rectangular in shape, as was portrayed in the video. In addition to the upper outside corners, the lower horizontal edge (towards road) has a slight upwards tapering effect. I have test driven the vehicle with the 26 ft. travel camper in tow and the mirrors seem to provide much improved visibility on both sides. We will be taking a weekend trip in the near future to confirm that these mirrors are completely adequate.
These tow mirrors worked great on my 2018 Tacoma. I wouldn’t have been able to see around my trailer without them. I pulled a trailer about 2500 miles, over a two week period, often at highway speed & mirrors didn’t move a millimeter. I’m very pleased with them, easy to put on & take off. Didn’t scratch the paint on the factory Tacoma mirrors at all.
I have used the mirrors for about a year on a half dozen trips and find them very helpful and completely functional. Took me a bit to figure out the straps and how to loosen and tighten them but once I did that they are easy to install and remove between trips.
