Specs:
Expand your field of vision and reduce blind spots with these easy-to-install, slip-on towing mirrors. By attaching these mirrors to your factory side-view mirrors, you'll be able to see past the end of your trailer so you can safely change lanes, pass other motorists, and park. The housing of each slide-on mirror is constructed of durable ABS plastic, as are the included components.
This set fits factory mirrors like those pictured above.
These towing mirrors are designed to seamlessly fit the contours of your factory side-view mirrors. Each one includes felt padding inside the housing that protects the factory mirror body from scratches and scuffs. Installation is a snap - just slide the towing mirror over your OEM mirror and insert the provided arm and hand knob through the back of the mirror housing. Then hook the arm around the inside edge of your OEM mirror. Finally, tighten the hand knob to secure the towing mirror in place.

Enhance your towing experience by expanding your field of vision with these towing mirrors. Custom-fit mirrors slide over your vehicle's factory mirrors to improve sightlines while towing your trailer. Tool-free installation.These mirrors did a pretty good job for my truck. They have a flame design on the front of the housing that I'm not wild about but I don't see them when I drive so...what the heck. The housing doesn't interfere with the factory mirrors view or function. The smaller outside mirrors are a little small and it takes a while to find just the right place to set them. I will say that once they are set they have remained in place and don't require continuous adjusting. There is slight, and I mean slight, wiggle in the mirror but no vibration or distortion even at highway speeds. Overall, I'm satisfied with the performance of these pretty affordable alternatives.
Eric - 01/19/2022Ordered a set of mirrors for my 2013 Chevrolet truck. They were delivered on time and had a chance to use them this weekend towing my camper. They worked very well and I would recommend them to anyone that needed a set of towing mirrors. They did fit my existing mirrors as describe and they did not shake going down the road.
I had some trouble installing the mirror extensions on my 2012 Chevy Tahoe. As you can see in the photo below, the J-hook with the flat disc is not long enough to reach the adapter. It measures 3 inches from the large hole in the shell to the inside of the OEM mirror. Since the J-hook is only 3 inches long, there is no way to attach the knob to it. All the other applications seem to place the large hole in the shell much closer to the edge of the mirror. The shell does fit very nicely to the OEM mirror with no gaps. I solved the problem by using 'ball bungees' in place of the J-hooks. These are used to attach tarps to metal frames, awnings, etc. I used three ball bungee's (2 on top and 1 on the bottom). I think these work much better. The extension mirror is tight against the factory mirror and the bungees hold it there without scratching the paint. I like this set-up much better so I won't need the KLV 4010 kit. You might consider a re-design. I didn't like the threaded J-hooks. It was very hard to screw on the knobs the first time without cross-threading them and I suspect they are prone to breakage. If someone bumps in to the mirrors in the parking lot, the bungees just stretch and nothing breaks. Probably a lot cheaper too.
Mirror extensions were advertised as direct fit for my vehicle but the included hardware did not. Directions were unclear and the installation video wasn’t for my vehicle
Jenny N - 02/23/2022Goes on easily and stays on ,no shaking like you get with cheaper trailer mirrors that are held on with rubber straps.
At first the install seemed easy, but after figuring it out these things are awesome. I use them every time I throw on my camper and haven't had any blind spot issues. I paired them up with a backup camera from etrailer and now can backup and hook up my boat up without any problems.
Do not know what the difference in my factory mirrors may be 2013 GMC Serria 2500HD but these will not work, they fit over them great but the hardware that secure them will not.that is the only reason for the three star.
Sierra K - 01/26/2022Fits perfectly! Much better than the standard clip on models.
Did a trial fit and they fit nice . As always great products and service !
Fit perfectly. Easy to install. Factory look. Enabled me to see the length of my 8.5x20 trailer on both the passenger and driver side
My other option was to swap out both mirrors with the extendable towing mirrors. This was a third of the cost and gives the same performance without the "add on" look.
Took a few minutes to figure out the clip and screw arrangement but they seem to be a sturdy mirror. I will be towing with them next week and hope I got a winner this time. My third set of towing mirrors (first from etrailer) might be the charm!
Fit well on the mirrors. The only issue we had was that the foam pieces on the passenger side mirror were not on right, we had to modify them so that they fit securely. Handy husband so no big deal.
We used the mirrors this past weekend. They worked great, fit well and had very little vibration/shaking at 70 MPH. I echo what many have said about the attachment hook bending when tightening them down. I wonder how long they will last. Friends of ours have a 2015 GMC Sierra 2500 which take the LVT-1800. Those only require the hook to hold them in place not the hook, other bold and bracket as required on these. It appears the back of LVT-1800 mirror reached further across so the bolt and bracket are not required. The LVT-1800 looks to be a much better design and I wish the CTM-1600 were the same. Etrailer was great to work with so much so that I just placed another order for some other items.
The mirrors fit the truck very well. Video was a big help in putting the holder together. 2013 Silverado
Biggest problem was following the directions as to where to place the felt pieces. Called etrailer rep and although she was helpful, she had the same problem with the directions. Etrailer rep was very courteous and helpful.
Called Longview, where the mirrors were sent from. Not a professional answering machine message and later found out it was a personal cell phone. I was told to put the felt pads where they rub on the mirror. Not as professional a place as etrailer.
I have had CIPA mirrors on other trucks and have liked them. These mirrors seem very similar other than the way they are locked onto the truck mirror.
Must love them, this is the second time I have purchased a set as I had them stolen in Valle parking. They are a little hard to put on, but are secure and I leave them on all the time. I really do love them and pull my trailer with great view behind me. The installment video was very helpful sandi
I searched YouTube for days and I seen your product.
Watched videos and read reviews and thought these seem like what I was looking for.
So happy I ordered them.
It's not often something fits and installs just like it's says it does.
Took all of maybe 5 minutes to install both left and right mirrors.
Thank you for making something that fits the first time.
Great fit.
Overall I am very happy with the mirrors. They fit very snug to my Yukon's factory mirrors. The mounting hardware was to short for my application, the reason for 4 stars. It may have been because of the factory chrome pieces on backs of the mirrors. But with some minor design improvements they fit well, ie. zip-tie to extend the back loop. Another inch of thread would have solved the problem. The longview mirrors hold position very well. I also like that I could still fold in my power mirrors while in camp. Which doesn't seam like a big deal until you have kid walk into them because they are not use to them being there.
The mirrors work very well for seeing behind my camper and look as if they are made for my chevy.
3 reviews in one. "Product" (CTM1600: mine came in a Longview box labeled as LVT 1600) is an exact fit for 2011 Chevy Tahoe LTZ w/chrome topped mirrors. It covers most of the light under the mirror, but we never needed that anyway. Fits like a glove, I added zip ties to each mirror as a safety measure to ensure we don't loose it under unforeseen circumstances like hitting a large bird and breaking the hold downs. "Service" Lisa D. made absolutely certain it would fit my vehicle before I placed the order. Wow, why buy from anyone else if you are going to get the right item the first time. "Delivered" on Thursday after being ordered on Monday of the same week.
I am a new travel trailer owner. These mirrors are really great. They fit my 2014 Tahoe like a glove. I only rated 4 stars because I have not finalized installation. If I can figure it out, I would rate 5 stars. By the way, customer service was superb! I will order more product from etrailer.
Mike W - 12/28/2017Great product , shipped fast !!!!
I like them, the plastic bolts made me a little Leary but their flexibility allowed me to get them installed on my 2012 Silverado 1500 with Chrome mirrors. A hint when installing is to ensure the nuts are started on the bolts before you install. Nice snug fit.
Slip-on fit is very good, plastic hardware will have to go through the test of time to see if it will last and not break!
