K-Source Universal Dual Lens Towing Mirrors - Clip On - Pair
They will not stay on the mirrors for a 2023 Grand Cherokee. After very careful installation they fell off because the shape of the mirror is rounded and you cannot get a good grip to hold the mirror on
The mirrors worked better than I expected and fit a Kia Sorento quite well. The design is pretty easy to mount and dismount once they're set up.Ive wind tested them to 72 mph when passing and they've held tight

CIPA Universal Towing Mirrors - Clip On - Qty 2
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.
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'.

K-Source Universal Towing Mirrors - Clip On - Convex Mirror - Qty 2
These are working out great! I'm now a wiz at putting them on too. They're great quality, sturdy and snug fitting. Very happy.
Reviewing the K-Source Universal Towing Mirrors - Clip On - Convex Mirror Installed on a 2017 KIA Sorento LX. Clean the back of your mirrors before ratcheting these on, it will help them stay in place. I wanted the best angle possible, so I installed then further out on the mirrors. Due to the curvature of the KIA mirror housings, I was not 100% confident that I wouldn’t lose a mirror while on the road. A few zip ties around the base of the housing increased my comfort level. Mirrors held fast at highway speeds. Do they vibrate? Yes. Can I tell you the eye color of the driver in the other vehicle? No. Do they show me much more of the blind spots I cannot see with my vehicle mirrors? ABSOLUTELY. Notice the difference in which vehicles I can see in the pictures. Please excuse the dirty windows, we were camping after all. Overall I am happy with the clip on mirrors. I will be fashioning a Velcro safety strap and would recommend something similar be added to the product.

K-Source Universal Towing Mirror - Clip On - Convex Mirror - Qty 1
After years of replacing mirrors from other sources I purchased a pair of these. There fantastic, plenty of adjustments. Got covid on vacation, really sick and did not properly install mirror. Not broken but scratched badly from asphalt at 55 mph. Purchased a replacement, scratched one is my spare.
I already had mirror extensions because I pull a travel trailer, but one got broken off so I needed a replacement. I chose this different model and am happy I did because it gives me a clear view of what might be coming up on my left side. I can easily see if I am able to change lanes. I do still like the other model though, and it works perfectly for the right side because I have three different aspects to help me know when to pull back in after passing. I highly recommend both models. Shipping was fast.

CIPA Universal Towing Mirror - Clip On - Qty 1
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.

K-Source Snap & Zap Custom Towing Mirrors - Snap On - Driver and Passenger Side
Fast shipping and they fit perfect. Snaps into place and has a nice tight fit on my 2005 Dodge Ram. I'm pulling a 23'x8' travel trailer. Looks like it was factory made. It vibrates some at high speeds, 50+mph, but you can still see good enough for just changing lanes. I would've given 5 stars if they were just a little larger,but I am very satisfied. TY
Received the mirrors yesterday for my 2006 Ram 1500. Mirrors were easy to install like in the demo video. They look good as well as they look like a part of the truck. My only complaint about the product is that the adjustability of the mirrors is not very easy. The glass is on a ball/socket pivot but it is not smooth moving. In the video they appeared to adjust very easily. I don't know if they should be lubricated and I haven't looked to see if I can reach the pivot to add any grease. The mirrors came in a canvas carrying bag with separate compartments to prevent scratching which was a nice surprise. The box was pretty damaged when it arrived, but probably by the shipping company. The mirrors were somewhat protected in the bag. Picking up the new camper today and we'll see how they do!

CIPA Universal Fit Towing Mirrors - Strap On - Qty 2
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.
I like the mirrors. However, I find that the straps stretch when they get wet, and the rubber pads do not stick very well, tending to slide, causing the mirrors to move out of alignment while traveling.

CIPA Custom Towing Mirror - Slip On - Driver Side
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!

CIPA Custom Towing Mirrors - Slip On - Driver Side and Passenger Side
Easy install no straps,hooks .wide coverage ,easily adjustable....very good view of my camper in the outer mirror.fit and finish is excellent.
I installed the left side first and was impressed with installation and operation. Then I went to right side and found that the threads were not completely cut in housing so thumbscrew would not go in, tapped hole so I could install but then found that the mirror also would not move to adjust on the right side. They look good on truck and would work good if right side could be adjusted.

CIPA Universal Dual Lens Towing Mirrors - Clip On - Qty 2
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.
