Best 2008 Toyota 4Runner Towing Mirrors

Great product. Provides me the added visibility I need when towing my tent trailer. Easy to install. Good video on web site for installation.

Easy to install and adjust, then it stays where you adjusted it. I even went by a big truck going the other way a little close and it folded my whole mirror in. When I pushed it back, the clip on mirror was still in the same position.

We bought a camper trailer and towed it home. Realizing the factory mirrors on the 5th gen 4runner don't quite stick out far enough to see the sides of the trailer or up coming traffic, the drive home was a little intense. We have multiple vehicles that can tow the trailer so I wanted to get something that could be universal. FYI, when dealing with mirrors, be careful you don't have hornets nests inside your vehicle mirrors, not fun. Either way, they were easy to install and have joints that allow for total adjustment. I would say it was easier to bend and position all the joints before I added the straps for mounting. The new mirrors sit tight and can be fully adjusted and rotated horizontal or vertically. Also clean off and dry your vehicle mirrors before attaching so the straps stick better.

Excellent product, was easy to install and take off, stayed tightened to my 4runner mirror and worked exactly as advertised.

I like these mirrors very much. They really stay on the mirror.

I bought these to go on a 2016 Toyota 4 Runner. I can't give them more then 3 stars because I haven't used them yet. I am hoping that the straps that go around the back of the mirror will keep the mirrors on the drivers side from blowing off on two lane highways when on coming 18 wheelers go by me at high speeds. I have owned the Cipa Universal mirrors, #CM1198-2 for two seasons and have had them blow off 3-4 times during this on coming traffic scenario described above. The ratcheted straps look like they will help to prevent this blow off problem

When I picked up our Yamaha boat with our 4Runner, I could not see to change lanes on the way home. Never knew mirror extensions existed until a quick search online. Decided it was cheaper than a new truck with tow mirrors and I’m glad I bought these. I was hesitant at first, thinking they’d look tacky, but I mounted mine on the bottom of the mirror and they aren’t bad looking. They extend out plenty allowing me to see to back up and change lanes while driving. And they are extremely adjustable. And they can be removed in seconds when not needed. Do your homework before purchasing like I did, that way you’ll know if you over tighten the mounting screws you can potentially break the bracket. Knowing this, I just snug mine down with a reasonable amount of effort, and they stay put. Whoever designed these, thank you for creating a solution to what could have been a very expensive alternative had we purchased another vehicle with tow mirrors.

Worked as advertised. Haven’t had any issue securing them. I make sure I double check when I stop, but worked great with my 2016 Toyota 4Runner Limited towing my 22ft travel trailer.

I used them on a long camping trip! They were great!

Easy to use and adjust. I bought these for a 4Runner and pull an RPod. They increase visibilty quite a bit, and the split mirrors work great for blind spot and for seeing trailer tires on narrow roads (the RPod “box” is only as wide as my vehicle, but the tires are outside the box.) Great price, easy to mount and unmount. Only negative is the grab fingers may restrict motion of oem mirrors.

Used for about 6000 mile trip. Used on Toyota 4runner. Vibrated some due to plastic mirror body on vehicle. Also in strong winds vehicle mirror would swing back. Easy to install, adjust and good field of view. Ended up using CIPA door mount mirror because of problems with vehicle mirror this was attached to, but preffered this mirror to door mount if vehicle mirror was sturdier. 4runner mirrors are narrow so fully extended to see beyond trailer which made problems worse. Still sometimes use this mirror on passenger side since easier to adjust than door mount. Note, there are no custom or real good tow mirrors for a 4runner. There are issues with the door mount mirrors also. Tried the strap on mirrors, did not work at all, not enough extension. Well made mirror, do need to make sure they are clamped on tight, one fell off first time I used.

Build quality is ok but. Mirror clamps do not hold firm to existing mirrors and loosen as you drive. Twist lock does not hold tight enough and mirrors rotate while driving. I would not recommend this to anyone.

simple and easy to use. affordable.

It was hard to get and keep them on the car mirror. Had trouble adjusting them to see the camper

Clips don't quite fit between the car mirror and the car mirror frame. We haven't taken them out on the road yet. May have more later.

These mirrors are awesome!! Able to fit on both my vehicles!

I am very happy with etrailer and the towing mirrors. I have been looking for several years for mirrors that would serve my needs.

These are the best ones I’ve come across. Work great!! I had ordered some other ones for the same price and used them once and threw them away when I got back from my trip because every time I got over 50mph my 4runner mirrors would fold in and slam against my doors.

Fast delivery

Fit our 4Runner perfectly. Super easy to install, and setup.

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!

Terrible! They sent me two different mirrors. One had a stronger magnifying mirror than the other. Lots of vibrations. Don’t waste your time or money on this product. I tossed them both.

Works well

I was hoping to fill out a review of my recent interaction with eTrailer but cannot update a previous review or add a new one. I had an issue with some towing mirror extensions that I purchased where one of the mirrors shattered very very easily. Dena contacted me and offered a replacement and subsequently had the new items shipped very quickly. Just want to say thanks to Dena for her awesome customer service and kindness. You rock!

We use them when we pull our camper. The mirrors allow us to see around The camper now. They are easy to put on and take off. We highly recommend them.

After a little snafu with shipping I received the mirrors and am very happy with them. They fit my Toyota Tundra perfectly and actually look good. Unlike the strap on kind of mirror extensions. They don't vibrate while driving so give a clear view. I am very happy with these mirror extensions.

I've used this trailer mirror for 8 years. I had to purchase another, after my original set was stolen along with my trailer, where I kept it. I only purchased the driver's side this time, as I can see to the right rear fine without the extension. The description states that the vehicle mirrors can fold closed with the towing mirror attached. No, they can't. And they couldn't in 2013, either. I had hoped that the design of the mirror body would have been updated to allow the vehicle mirror to fold but it is still the same. So, I did as before, and cut the bottom corner of the housing to provide clearance up to the fold point on the vehicle mirror. That's not difficult, but why the claim that the mirror can fold with the towing mirror attached? Disappointing. Otherwise, the housing fit well over the vehicle mirror, and the attachment is solic. It's a bit of a trick to align the screw-in bolt to the wedge socket, since it can't be seen, but it's not too hard. Side note: I've been concerned since my first purchase that I would lose the wedge. It's not attached, and could be dropped or misplaced. I attached velcro to the wedge and the inside of the housing where it won't interfere with installation. The mirror and wedge are now always together. And, if you purchase both left and right mirrors, note that they are identified as so inside the housing. Look for "LH" and "RH", inside center, toward the end. Reversing the mirrors, though they look the same, will result in lost mirrors. If anyone should like a photo of what I did to allow the vehicle mirror to fold with the towing mirror attached, let me know.I'm not near my vehicle now, or I would take a photo and attach it.

It arrived yesterday as stated, I saw this box on the PO Boxes but there was no name on the label so I didn't take it, But today I saw the email that my order was delivered yesterday so I went back and check my box and your box was still there so I looked at the box and it said etrailer so I guessed it was mine. But it was not addressed to me or anyone else just the park name.

5,000 plus miles and counting. Leave them on even when not towing. No wiggle. Mountings still secure. Aerodynamic and much more attractive than other mounting systems. Pricy but well worth it. Toyota did not even offer towing mirrors for the 1st generation Tundras!!!

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.

The right passenger mirror will not adjust easily and the mirror is popped out of its bracket.

Excellent fit! Easy to install. The best is i can see my 35ft travel trailer!!

Excellent fit and plenty of foam to protect the OEM mirrors. The only part I didn’t like was that the small mirrors, while adjustable, seems to slowly adjust after several hours of driving. Not dramatically, but enough they needed readjusted. Overall a great product for the price.

The product fit's my 2015 F-150 Lariatt with chrome mirrors perfectly. They fit snug to the factory mirrors and do not vibrate while driving. With the padding provided with the mirrors, there is no scratching the finish on the chrome exterior of the mirrors. Rear visibility is very good while pulling our 32 foot R.V. When our trips are complete, I simply store the Longview Mirrors in the RV storage area, and my $$$ truck looks great with the chrome mirrors vs. factory towing mirrors. The attached photo shows the type of mirror's on my truck that your Longview Custom Towing Mirrors attach perfectly to. I wish a photo of the F-150 factory chrome mirrors would have been available when I ordered my Longview Mirrorws so I hope this photo helps you out. Also note, if your truck has the Lane Changing Warning System, it is not the Longview Mirrors that disable the system, it is the trailer(s) you are towing.
