Best 2012 Nissan Xterra Towing Mirrors

Works great on my 2001 Xterra. Using these to pull my pop up camper. Thank you Nicole R for recommending these to me. It's nice to have etrailer in my home town.

I really like the extra field of view that these mirrors give me. They are well made, and easy to install. The two problems I've had are as much related to the shape and mechanism of the original mirrors on my Nissan Xterra as the K-Source itself. The mounting clips can touch the original mirror glass, and therefore somewhat interfere with your ability to adjust the view from the original mirrors. Second; one has fallen off twice while I was driving (and miraculously survived). I think that the rubber straps may relax a little and loosen in very hot weather.

The RV dealer sold me a set of suction cup mirrors that sucked. These clamp on mirrors are AWESOME. VERY easy to adjust and fit onto my cars mirrors. The frame is articulated so that the part with the strap attached can spread apart. The straps are pure genius. They have a WIDE range of adjustment and once fitted into place can be released by lifting a tab and pushing a button. The small outside mirror is a convex mirror to a fish eye view and both are fully adjustable to fit your viewing style. These mirrors make it very easy to see behind the camper. I have them fitted onto a 2015 Nissan Xterra and I'm sure they will fit a wide range of vehicle OEM mirrors. Can't go wrong with a pair of these for sure.

Fit perfectly on my 2013 Nissan XTerra and added the width I need to see around side of my Prowler. Very happy with this purchase.

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

CIPA Universal Dual Lens Towing Mirrors performed as advertised. I followed others' suggestions and thoroughly cleaned & de-bugged (w/bug cleaner) my Cherokees' existing mirrors so the rubber retaining straps adhered to my Cherokees' mirrors. Also secured a zip tie around the Towing Mirror & the Cherokee mirrors to prevent slippage. There Was slight vibration of the Towing Mirror image, but nothing I couldn't live with. The extra extension beyond my Cherokee's mirrors made driving and lane changes much easier, safer, & less stressful. I'd buy these again.

A nice alternative for temporary mirrors for trailer hauling. They didn't interfere with the remote mirror adjustment on the factory installed outside mirrors and held securely once adjusted. I used them on a 2019 Honda Ridgeline.

We needed these extended mirrors on our van when pulling our camper. They fit perfect on our 2014 E250. Husband was very happy with the added rear vision they provide. The mirrors stayed put and adjusted even on the interstate. Great purchase!

My rating is less to do with the product and more with etrailer. I ordered an identical mirror (CIPA model 11950) on amazon for less than half the price, 1 day shipping, free delivery, and it did not fit my vehicle so I bought the one etrailer recommended for my vehicle. I thought it was CIPA model 7070 but that is just the etrailer model #. I got CIPA model 11950 which I already have. Now I need to return the ones to etrailer and I'm being charged $16 to do so. This could have been avoided if the CIPA model number was immediately visible in the description (it is there in small print at the bottom). Also, my vehicle's mirror (2018 explorer) is not the same as the 2018 explorer in the video and picture. So it's not accurate for etrailer to say it fits all 2018 Explorers.

Purchased a pair for our 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee towing a nuCamp 400 from FL to AK and back. Three months and around 16k miles. Pros - other than an adjustment the second day, I never had to adjust the tension straps again. They were easy to mount and did not interfere with our mirrors folding inward. They weathered three months on the road without issue though I was beginning to worry about the straps becoming brittle. I noticed this once I removed them. Had I kept them, I would have used some silicon to rejuvenate the rubber. Cons - the only con is they shake. They shake to the point that sometimes I couldn't distinguish what exactly was behind me. I knew there was a vehicle, but the distortion from the vibration prohibited me from getting a clear view of exactly what was behind us. Impressions - they worked for our trip but I knew I would want something else for our next long trip, so we invested in a Furrion Reviewing Camera.

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.

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!

Very good product, the mirrors get pushed around thru the car wash every month, holds up to those big brushes no problem and they hold there position too made well, worth the investment if you don’t want to upgrade to towing mirrors

Nice mirror extensions! Look good on my 2003 Chevy duramax diesel. Perfect fit and very easy installation!! I have an overhead camper on my truck and this will sure prevent an accident changing lanes now with these on. I will take them off when l’m not camping. Easy to do. I live in the low desert where we get extremely hot during the summer and the heat could possibly weaken the plastic? I don’t want to ruin them.

Not a good mirror. Second time using it fell off my car and smashed in road. Thank goodness it did not hit another car. The foam pads slid off and you can not get a good grip. I returned and they are sending me same one, because it was after 30 days.

Fit mostly well on vehicle. Have not used on road yet. Time will tell

Rather on the high side on cost but they are easy it install and remove. Field of vision is not what it could be but better than the mirrors on the truck.

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.

BUYER BEWARE!!!!!! I had great hopes for these mirrors. They look great. They appear to be very adjustable right out package. They fit on my Tacoma securely. They don't interfere with the function of the stock mirrors. Everything was moving along "swimmingly". Then I sit inside my truck to do the final adjustment (moving the actual mirror to get the correct setting and lock it into the "sweet spot"). The new Mirror is very stiff...doesn't want to move. Well, its new...so....Okay, I don't want to ruin anything...so.... No worries, I go get a phillips screwdriver to loosen the back screw a smidge so the friction adjustment can work . Come back start to back the screw out just a smidge...nope...still can't adjust the...wait...unscrew some more....that's not an adjustment screw at all. That just screws directly into the back of the mirror to hold it solidly in place. Worse yet, There is no friction mechanism on the back of the mirror at all. It is one solid piece of plastic. The molded plastic replicates the look as if it has the ability to move, but in reality....There is no way to do small mirror corrections once you have this thing installed. What the Actual people?????!!!!!!???? If you can't do minor adjustments to the mirror while you are in the vehicle, then the mirror is completely useless. I wouldn't recommend this product to my worst enemy. It's a piece of crap. DO NOT BUY!!!! A complete waste of time, money, and shipping costs. Now, I have to incur more shipping costs to send this POS back to etrailer. Hey, etrailer....Do Better next time!!!!

So-so construction and design. With one modification they're more than acceptable. The arms and straps will slip and loosen if installed on triangular or tapered housings. Mirrors that have backs nearly parallel to the mirror face, and have upper and lower mirror edges that are nearly parallel are not affected. Adding a peel and stick plastic wall hanger to a tapered housing will stop the strap from slipping and loosening. The ball and socket mount is good and tight, but the stud on the ball is loose in the arm. I think most of the jitter and vibration others report is from this sloppy clearance that the stud screw can't tighten enough. I'll be addressing that as well. A nice option for those of us that a) don't tow a majority of the time and don't want full time extended mirrors, and/or b) tow with multiple vehicles and prefer to have adjustability to fit our 'fleet'.

I ordered these for a 2023 Tundra after being advised to do so. The straps seem to be too short and to get them attached I'm really stretching then out and they're difficult to mount. I'm concerned they're going to pull off with so much tension and very little strap left threading through the tensioner.

I bought these mirrors to use on our 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee. I used them just a couple of times and have decided to look for something else. Despite my best efforts and watching (and re-watching) the online video that shows them being mounted on my exact vehicle, I found that the soft pads that grip the back of the mirror could not keep the mirror in place for more than 30 minutes or so. It was warm (mid-80s) when I used the mirrors and the heat seemed to let the pads slip too much. I tried several different positions and adjusted the tension straps carefully, but no luck. They seem pretty well made and may well work well on other vehicles, but they just don't work with my Jeep GC.

Honda Odyssey 2010 is what these mirrors are used for by me. Once I get them positioned where I want them, which was quite the project the first time, they work fine, giving driver critically necessary views of our A-line trailer. After a period of driving, though, their position shifts, they start to sag, they simply cant hold on tight enough to the half-melted-bar-of-soap aero-shape of our Honda mirrors. Not the fault of CIPA, it IS a universal fit it says. Some fits will be better than others. There are no mirrors I could find dedicated to 09 - 11 Honda Odysseys. These work, don't get me wrong, and I'll keep using them, since there's nothing else available, but it took a while to discover the routine that gets them mounted where they stand half a chance to last a trip. The tension locking knobs are a righteous pain in the patooty. I would say to look long and hard for a mirror made specifically for your application before you buy these. If nothing is available, well... OK, maybe these will work for you. So far they have for me, once I got it all figured out.

They seem like they will work although The fit isn't as good as I was hoping. I will find out the first time I do 60 mph in the New Mexico winds. They appear to be worth the price.

Upon finding that the towing mirrors did not fit my vehicle I called them from Canada, explained to them about the issue at hand and they were very understanding and fair with the resolution. I will definitely use this business again and highly recommend the service provided from the etrailer team. Best regards,

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.

Easy to install and remove. Minimal vibration with a great field of vision. Great buy.

Excellent product. Easy to put on. Took them off, put them in my camper storage. Next trip out, when I put them on, I did not even need to adjust them! The mirrors are slight contour and slight magnification, which makes them easy to see. There is virtually NO vibration during travel. (I have had others that shimmied so bad you could not see a thing.) I flip my driver side mirror in frequently to check my mail box, so it is not very stiff. So I ran a small bungee from the clamp to the grill under my hood. Did this for both sides. My driver side flipped in when traveling at interstate speeds, so I put a second bungee on it. Fixed the problem. Allen bolts at top of clamp are rusting after 2nd use. All in all though, I am very pleased with this product and it is well worth the money spent. It is the only product I could find to properly fit my 2011 Toyota Tacoma, because it clamps on the mirror frame and does not rest on my truck mirrors. Great Product!

These mirrors helped tremendously when towing my Micro Minnie travel trailer versus stock mirrors on my GMC SIERRA 1500. The extended mirrors enabled to better determine when it was safe to move back into my lane after passing a vehicle and allowed me to see better the vehicles behind trailer. Although there was an occasional slight vibration in the passenger side mirror, it did not disrupt the usability of the mirrors. The towing mirrors took only a minute or two to install and fit perfectly on the stock mirrors. Adjusting them properly takes a little more time and is easier when a second person helps. I am extremely pleased with this purchase!

Hi, i bought Longview custom towing mirrors for my 2023 1500 chev. silverado.Ive'd traveled for about 8,000 miles in the states (winter 23-24 ) they are great easy on and off, no vibrations i really highly recommend these mirrors.
