CIPA Custom Towing Mirrors - Slip On - Driver Side and Passenger Side
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.

Longview Custom Towing Mirrors - Slip On - Driver and Passenger Side
This mirror extension set was extremely easy to install on my Chevy Silverado. It looks good and seems like it will work well. I have my RV hooked up but haven’t tried them out on the highway. I will be watching for how secure they are at 70 mph. My only surprise was the design on the back side. I expected them to be just plain textured plastic. It’s ok though.
Impressed with the mirrors. They fit well, are fairly stable at speed. Already one year, they still are holding up. Two complaints: 1. They don't have a screw adjustment to tighten down the mirrors. They do get looser with time. 2. They don't have a cutout for the puddle lamp. Even a scored area would have been nice so I could drill my own hole.

K-Source Snap & Zap Custom Towing Mirrors - Snap On - Driver and Passenger Side
love the quality and ease of installation, however they don't fit. I called my sales rep back. Quinn did some research and hopefully found a pair of mirrors that will fit.
I ordered the clip-on mirrors hoping they would work with my 2016 Chevrolet Silverado. When UPS dropped of the package I was surprised to see that the mirrors arrived in good shape and undamaged. The mirrors weren't shipped in a typical box within a shipping box, just the mirror box. That being said, the mirrors fit perfect and after having my wife do some adjusting on the passenger side mirror they worked just fine. I did a test drive today towing our travel trailer and the mirrors provide the view I need to safely tow our trailer. As you can see in the photos, the mirrors look real nice on my Silverado. I want to thank Michelle S. who helped me with ordering the correct mirrors for my truck. I am delighted with the appearance and the usefulness of the mirrors. I would order again from etrailer.com.

Longview Custom Towing Mirrors - Slip On - Driver and Passenger Side
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.

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.

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
Kia SorentoThe 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

K-Source Universal Towing Mirrors - Clip On - Convex Mirror - Qty 2
They were easy to install (once you figure out where the strap release button is located) and worked like a charm! I drive a 2017 Suburban and towed a Keystone Bullet (about 8 1/2’ wide and 30’ long) 160 miles today without any issues. The mirrors are not what I’d call pleasing to the eye, but they certainly provided an additional 18” of span, enabling me to look down the sides of the trailer and see cars behind me.
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.

K-Source Snap & Zap Custom Towing Mirrors - Snap On - Driver and Passenger Side
The fit is perfect and they look very nice. We are heading out on our first camping trip with them in a week. It appears they are going to be a great addition to the safety of towing our Airstream.
These are excellent towing mirrors. I also have a set for my F150. Quick, easy installation. They look like they could be OEM. They have a tight fit and remain stable. There is minimal vibration even at highway speeds.

CIPA Custom Towing Mirrors - Slip On - Driver Side and Passenger Side
I like these but I would have given them 4.5 stars if possible and I'll explain below. The shipping was fast. They arrived in good shape. Right out of the box the construction didn't inspire confidence, these are lightweight. They slide on horizontally to the OEM mirror & fit snuggly, then a wedge is tightened in place between the tow mirror and the OEM mirror to prevent the tow mirror from sliding back off. The tow mirrors are easy to install and from a short distance look better than some of the other "clamp-on" styles. A plus! I have tried these a couple of times at speeds of up to 80mph (we can do that in Idaho), and yes, I don't plan to tow a trailer that fast but a strong headwind would easily exceed an 80 or 90mph effective speed. (we get that in Idaho too) During the tests they performed well, never loosened, no noticeable vibrations in the view. I was impressed. Overall, I would buy these again and recommend to a friend.
I had the mirrors for about four months and one of the mirrors just fell off was not happy. Obviously it shattered on the ground. The adhesive is very cheap on them called customer service. They sent me out a new one, but was told this happens quite often with those. I think the adhesive Hass to be better.

K-Source Custom Extendable Towing Mirrors - Manual - Textured Black - Pair
I bought tow mirrors a year ago from etrailer.com and I couldn't ask for more they have held up very well and am pleased to recommend them.
From purchase to product installation And fit, this product and company is top notch. Great communication throughout and Customer Service is amazing as well. Please note: you DO NOT have to remove door panels to install the manual mirror on the 2500 HD. Pull the top corners of the door panel and remove the small push screw in the upper trim cover on both sides. Pull the upper trim piece off and install the new mirror. Be sure to lip the trim as you go during reinstallation of the trim...then press into place and snap the top corners of the door panel in. This procedure will take about 15 minutes. Thanks Etrailer!

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!

Most excellent product, replacing my drivers side tow mirror because a Wild Turkey flew out from the forest and literally straight into the mirror !!!! 20 pound bird at 50mph = no more mirror !!!! Caused door metal damage too... BUT the mirrors are the best designed, best looking and best performing mirrors, before a Wild Turkey hits it at 50mph...

CIPA Universal Towing Mirrors - Clip On - Qty 2
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.

CIPA Universal Fit Dual-View Towing Mirror - Clip-On
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.
Pros: Very easy to install. Will fit on almost anything. Cons: Bit of a challenge to adjust the in/out tilt on fixed mirror housings. Would like a little more height, but it's OK. This is a good solution for the casual user like me. Installation is painless. If you need more control over height or tilt, this is not for you.

CIPA Custom Towing Mirror - Slip On - Passenger Side
Great product for the price. I ordered the pair for my 2016 Silverado. package arrived in good shape, no problems. Easy to install and fit as designed, nice appearance. Only glitch was the passenger side mirror had a minor defect in the reflective surface. Notified etrailer and was promptly taken care of - received a replacement mirror in short order with free return. Very impressed. The passenger mirror view is a little small for me but otherwise acceptable. I previously ordered / received a Curt trailer hitch with same satisfaction. Would definitely recommend this company.
I spent many hours online looking for trailer mirrors when I came across the CIPA mirrors for my 2015 Silverado C1500. We tow a Jayco 26BHSW and absolutely love these mirrors. Our first trip with them was a 1500 mile trek from Louisville to Hilton Head and they performed without a hitch. We both highly recommended these mirrors.

CIPA Custom Towing Mirror - Slip On - Driver Side
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.

K-Source Universal Towing Mirrors - Clip On - Flat Mirror - Qty 2
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!!!!

CIPA Universal Fit Towing Mirror - Clamp On - Adjustable Length - Steel
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!

CIPA Custom Towing Mirrors - Slip On - Driver Side and Passenger Side
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.

CIPA Custom Towing Mirrors - Slip On - Driver Side and Passenger Side
Buy these! You won't be disappointed! This is my second set of towing mirrors and I have to say that these are far superior to my previous set in the way that they "lock" in place and don't slip around. My only comment is that each mirror comes with a small plastic shim to make the locking possible. It would be nice if the mfg would come up with a way to make a storage cradle in each mirror for the part when not in use. Otherwise, it could be easy to lose which would make the mirrors pretty useless.
Hello Amy J. This morning I installed the towing mirrors. Everything went well. Great product. FYI: The chrome caps on my foldout mirrors are the exact dimensions of the painted caps. No problems with install. The only improvement that I can see is a cutout for the "puddle light" but not really necessary for me as I rarely tow at night.
