Best 1997 Ford Ranger Towing Mirrors

It should work fine. The installation was very easy and the quality seems good. I have only one reservation and that is the plastic hook used for attachment. I would feel better if it were metal instead of plastic. It gets it's first test this week.

These mirrors fit my 2001 Ranger XLT Extended Cab with manual side mirrors perfectly. As usual Etrailer shipped promptly and kept me informed through the shipping process. Dick Berry

I had a pair of strap on exterior mirrors for my 2007 Ford Ranger that I was unhappy with for a variety of reasons. The problem with my model truck is there are relatively few aftermarket accessories for it. But when I got the email talking about these clamp on exterior mirrors, I decided to give them a try. I have a winner! They went on easily and they don't vibrate. Best of all, the adjustment for the passenger side mirror only took two tries to get it just right. Of course, the driver's side mirror is right where you are sitting, so it adjusts easily with one attempt. I'm very pleased with how these turned out. I'll be using them to see around my boat when I drag it down the road.

Found it cheaper on [online vendor].

Fast delivery, as advertised.

The mirrors provide good visibility around the trailer on my 2019 Ford Ranger. Due to the curved, sloping shape of the plastic frame of the truck mirrors the extensions occasionally slip and need repositioning and retightening.

Item arrived as promised. Easy to install and will aid in viewing traffic behind the trailer

I have used these towing mirrors on my 2020 Ford Ranger for several major camping trips in the past year. They are rock solid and do not vibrate at all, even on gravel roads. The ratcheting system when properly adjusted holds the mirror firmly in place. My only issue with the convex mirror is for backing my camper into a camping space. They offer great visibility to the rear on the road, but the image is distorted enough when backing that it becomes a little tricky. I only wish that the similar K-Source towing mirror with a flat mirror had the ratcheting attachment system instead of just pull-tight straps. I would purchase those to improve my ability to back up my camper if they did.

A bit of challenge to figure out the correct orientation for my mirrors. They seem to be quite secure, I’m glad I got them.

They look perfect. Won’t be using them for a few weeks but they look like they will work very well.

Very good quality construction. Very good fit for a non-custom mount. Thick rubber straps are stretched over the car’s side mirror and hold the mirror well. My car is a 2017 Ford Expedition EL. Note: when you fold in the car mirror the towing mirror partially blocks the progress so that mirror stops early. It is still folded but not as completely as without the tow mirror. And yes, they are two identical mirrors so on one side the straps go up, on the other side they go down.

We ordered extension mirrors for our vehicle to use when we pull our camper. They fit our mirrors perfectly. Can't wait to hit the road.

Could not find anything specific for my Ford Ranger, so these were as close to working as possible. Tried one on and seems like they will work. Website great, service great, fast shipping with regular $.$$ rate. Highly recommend

great service and shipping, will come back again.... 5 Star

Just as advertised. Went in easy. Haven’t towed with it yet though

They are ok for what they are. Easy to install and remove. They do not show as much as I thought but enough since I dont have factory tow mirrors.

I ordered these mirrors for my car in Oct 2021 at which time the website indicated they would fit my car. I only need them for towing during the summer so did not even open the boxes until this week, April 2022. Imagine my surprise to find out that the mirrors do NOT fit my car. I immediately sent an e-mail requesting process to return and exchange for mirrors that would fit. Today I received a response stating sorry they don't fit but our returns policy is 60 days and I was outside of that time. I should try selling them locally! I could understand if the mirrors were no longer carried by etrailer but they are still in stock. And I'm not asking for a refund but an exchange. Very disappointed in this company!

Good quality. I am impressed

These mirrors do not fit the 2000 Ford ranger.

These tow mirrors are very robust and they hold up well to the elements and road vibration. However they are pretty small and don’t help very much with towing a trailer. I then got Dometic Grand Aero3 clip on tow mirrors. Those were great as the mirrors were twice as large or more than these mirrors. But the clips were junk one fell off after a few tows. I now have CIPA 45000 mirrors on my truck. They are very similiar to ford type 8 tow mirrors. These cipa 45000 mirrors took some minor fabrication but they are great. They Stick out far, very sturdy, almost no vibration, and the mirrors are huge (7.5” x 10.5”) so it makes towing easy.

Towing mirrors look great and although we haven't installed them yet they look like they will fit perfectly! We are looking forward to using them on our 1997 Ford F350 to tow our fifth wheel. Thank you etrailer for prompt/dedicated service & fantastic products!

They work good.

These are nicely constructed mirrors, but the straps are too short to fit around my 2020 Ford Rangers' mirrors.

Finally, we got extended mirrors for our 2016 Sequoia. OEM mirrors are manageable but inefficient when backing up or switching lanes with a Travel Trailer. The only issue with the extended mirrors is that they vibrate to the extent you get hypnotized. They work best at slow speeds, backing in campgrounds or switching lanes at slow speeds. Sixty-five miles, forget it. Use your best judgment. If the mirrors are well molded into place, the vibration may be minimized. The team at etrailer, from start to finish, was fabulous. Thanks

I ordered these for my Ford Ranger. They work very well, no vibration and I’m generally happy with them. However I believe they would work much better on a square mirror like that is on a 150. My Ranger mirrors are kind of oblong and the fit isn’t just perfect but they do stay on well so that’s the reason for four stars again pretty much happy with them

They DO NOT fit, the straps are too short and can not attach back onto the frame. First time I have been disappointed with an etrailer product.

I bought the trailer mirrors for my Jeep Grand Cherokee to pull my pull behind trailer. See pictures. The mirrors attach easily and securely and shake very little when driving. I need them mostly when backing up and I can see where the trailer tires are going. The mirrors do not adjust easily but when you do they stay in place. What I especially like is the size of the mirrors and having two independent mirrors.

I'm so impressed at the quality of these mirrors (I bought both driver and passenger sides) especially at such a reasonable cost. Very simple but effective solution for me. It took about 3 minutes to install these as they fit and slide right over my existing mirrors. They were designed precisely for my vehicle so don't interfere with my power adjustments or signal lights. I'm new at pulling a large Camping trailer and needed to find something to get my field of view around both sides. Factory mirrors and such were too expensive for my budget and I don't believe they would help anymore than these.

Fits nicely over my existing mirrors and is extremely easy to install. They look great and are blend in with the existing mirror so that they look natural.

We haven't used them yet while driving the RV, but the fit is perfect! Very happy with these extenders

Really loved my cipa mirrors on my Chevy. The dodge mirrors are tight if you use the right thickness wedge. Problem I have is that if your backing up and want to pan the factory mirror down for rocks or stumps the overhanging lip of the cipa mirror stopes the factory mirror. Will have to grind some off that lip for factory mirrors tilt up or down to clear for the tilt of factory mirror.

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.

Not long after putting on the truck, the mirror fell off

I always wait for a period of time before writing a review to ensure I don't encounter problems shortly after receiving and using a product. I purchased this in the middle of December 2019, so I have been using it was several months. I purchased the outside mirror to replace a broken one on my Toyota Tundra. Received the mirror in a timely manner, and it met its description perfectly. Although I perform some repairs on my vehicles, by no means am I a mechanic or body repairman, I was able to remove the old mirror and install the new one in about 30 minutes. In the future I will not hesitate to order from etrailer for additional needs.

Great product and easy install. Mirrors look great
