Best 2006 Ford Expedition Towing Mirrors

The KS81600 (pair) snap-on mirrors mounted quickly and fit snug and beautifully to my 1999 Ford Expedition Eddie Bauer Series with contoured mirrors, and did not impede the existing Ford mirrors whatsoever. However, I have a problem with the focal distance of the passenger side KS81600 mirror that I received. See photos. It's magnification is quite different from the truck mirror, and shows only a small, magnified area of the distant background. In contrast, the KS81600 driver side mirror has a similar focal distance as the Ford driver side mirror, offering more of a long and broader view. I could live with the driver side view, but not the passenger side. I'm unsure if this difference is intentional or a product error/mis-match. I've contacted the eTrailer experts on the matter. Alternately, I also ordered a pair of the KS3891 "clip-on" mirrors, with the ratchet system. While I think this product offers a much broader view on both sides of the vehicle, they are not near as easy to put on as the KS81600, never quite go on in exactly the same position, and are not a perfect fit to my contoured Ford mirrors on the passenger side. In addition, the thicker clamps of the KS3891 make contact with the Ford mirror glass and impede my ability to fully adjust them. I will post a separate review of them. The KS81600 is a much cleaner, easier product to install and secure. Unfortunately, the focal distance issue is a deal killer for me, and I'll probably keep the KS3891 which provide a broader view on both sides of my rig.

2001 F-150 SuperCrew, Lariat edition with turn signals incorporated into exterior mirrors. The mirrors arrived undamaged within four days. Installed both mirrors in under three minutes and they fit perfectly, with no issues concerning the turn signals, (this was my concern). Hauled the trailer camping last weekend and although the extended mirror is slightly on the short-side, it was a huge improvement over the stock F-150 mirrors and I was able to see the traffic behind me. The mirror extensions had very little to no vibration. Great product at a great price. The video on the site showing the mirrors being fitted to the 2000 Ford Expedition is what prompted me to purchase since they are the same mirrors used on the F-150 at that time.

After looking for any towing mirror for my 2006 Expedition, I finally settled on these, and they are a great fit. I wasn't sure, but with the large amount of ratcheting and adjustment points, they fit securely and not too far out from the mirror.

I have tried them on my Expedition and they fit fine. I have not actually gone down the road with the trailer yet, but seems so well made, I'm very confident the mirrors will work fine and be a great help. We had some before that just strapped on and they vibrated horribly. These have the adjustable arms and seem like a lot better fit and a lot more stable. The sales clerk, Julie, referred this set to me, rather than the one I was asking about, since we were not sure the other set would fit. This set is more expensive than that set was, but I'm glad I spent the extra money because these seem much sturdier. She was very helpful. I received the mirrors in 3 days. Great customer service!

Using on an 2017 Ford Expedition. Installing them is easy. The universal mirrors does increase the viewing area when pulling a large travel trailer. I gave 4 stars because it is hard to get it adjusted to get the right coverage with the smaller mirror. For short trips I leave them in place rather than taking them off and then having to go through the process of readjusting. Not a bad purchase but if I had to replace them I would probably go with a single mirror instead of the dual mirror. The original expedition mirrors can cover about 85% of the needed view without moving the mirrors so its that last little bit that I am trying to see easily (without readjusting original mirrors on the fly)

Not fully understanding why Ford didn’t put tow mirrors in a vehicle boated to have the largest towing capacity of any SUV I had to look for other options on my Expedition. I’ll be honest I was suspect of the clip & strap mirrors but after 20,000 miles in 12 months I haven’t lost one and they are solid on the mirror. I’ve recommended these several times. Well worth the purchase.

We have used these mirrors for several trips. They are very easy to install and take off. Provide a very good view to back of Trailer. Price was well worth the Safety Factor!

It was a very simple installation. Alot better fit than what I was expecting. Just drove 400 miles with them and no problems. Thank you!!

The mirrors were purchased for a trip from Ga to Anchorage, AK to assist with a 20' cargo trailer and Ford Expedition. They performed wonderfully and handled the extreme weather.

I did a little over 1,000 miles this summer with these mirrors on a 2018 Ford Expedition. They held well, one downside is when that the power mirrors fold in with these attached the mirror hits the window. They could still function, but I wish they didn’t do that. Also when you put them on be cognizant of where the mirrors fold if your vehicle has powered mirrors. I could make it work just fine, but the first time I put them on I didn’t think about that.

These fit fine n my 2012 Ford Expedition, but the quality of the mirrors themselves was horribly bad. The outer mirror was fine, but the large inner mirror vibrates annoyingly with just the engine running and is totally unusable going down the road. They would be ok for backing up, but not for going down the road.

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.

Quick delivery and easy tracing. Boxed extremely well and the add on trailer mirrors were in perfect condition.

Easier to install than I expected. Minimal vibration with much-improved rearward visibilty. Easyto remove also. Does scuff the fixed mirror but controllable with wax.

I have just recieved my mirrors and am very pleased so far, they seem to fit very nice and snug with the spacer bar that fits in side the shell to lock in place, once you slide it into place. the instructions were very easy to follow, I had to make a guess that the strip of felt went on the bracket that slides against the mirror, the instructions did not say where it went. As the instructions say, it does make a little scuff mark, so clean and wax your mirror first as they suggest. I am also very pleased at the way they look on the truck, so look at my pictures and see what you think. I have not as of yet driven anywere yet to see how they are in the wind, but I feel by the way they fit all should be good.

See my review of the drivers side mirror...

Product was better than expected, the fit was good, the looks are good, I am very happy with this product,The service was fantastic, I received the product several days earlier than I was expecting. Over all I am very happy with this product. Thank you

Quick delivery. Product as described.

Great Value!!!!! Works with signal mirrors on 2007 Expedition, simple to install and remove, large mirror area compared to other universal fit mirrors. I really like them! They do vibrate a little, but that is easy to fix once you have them adjusted to your 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.

I'm not completely disappointed but unsure. When ordered, specific to 2011-2017 Expedition, this came up as fitting. When box arrived, I was shocked to see a label on box saying fits Ram Pick-up trucks! I went to CIPA website immediately for their fitment chart, thinking the wrong part was sent. Turns out CIPA doesn't make a specific mirror to mount on my vehicle. They do mount and I can "rig" them to work, but there are gaps, loose areas, etc. At $50 for (1) mirror at driver's side that is a bit much seeing as they fit perfectly on those RAM truck mirrors. etrailer website is deceiving customers in saying these mirrors fit my vehicle. Here again, if I paid $30 okay, but I paid $50 total for a mismatch, even supported by manufacturer. I hate sending things back and barely ever do, but this stinks and I have bought tons of stuff from etrailer.com.

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.

Wow! Great mirrors. I used one for each of the mirrors on my 04 Ford Expedition. These mirrors are made of top quality materials, with quality manufacturing. They work like a dream. Little to no vibration even at freeway speeds 55-60. Once adjusted, and secured, no movement. Thank you CIPA!

The instructions were simple, the mirrors were very easy to install and fit really well.

A quality item in comparison. We have an expedition, and there’s no form-fitted mirrors for this, so I went through three other pairs before finding this one, the others all broke within a year, but these are going strong. The teardrop shape helps prevent them from vibrating and wobbling on the highway. The glass is a little smaller than similar designs, but it’s a good trade off for being able to see, and having some level of confidence it’s not going to break off and tumble down the highway.

Purchased a set of Universal Towing mirrors, they were shipped quick and arrived to be exactly as advertised

These mirrors are great! The clamping system is very secure and any adjustments you make to the mirrors lock in tight.

Good mirrors for towing 28 ft travel trailer... Only got 3 star as first trip went we went to leave on thursday 5-25 for our first trip and went to put on and the passanger mirror was missing the screw to hold it on so i had to zip tie it on...on tuesday i will be calling to see about getting a replacement screw for next trip and will see how customer service is...

The towing mirrors are an exact fit. I was going to only use them when I towed my trailer but decided to keep them on permanently. They look Really good.

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.

They would be ok for backing up, but not for going down the road.

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
