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 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 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 Universal Towing Mirror - Clip On - Qty 1
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.
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.

CIPA Custom Towing Mirror - Slip On - Driver Side
I bought both sides for my 2011 silverado and they look really good they look like they are factory mirrors install very quickly about 1 minute a side and they still allow the mirror to fold in if need be and they don't hit the side of the truck when folded in they fit my needs just fine the only complaint I have is the mirror itself could be bigger its about 1/3 the size of my factory mirror you have a decent blind spot when using them you just have to check yourself and its not a problem other than that they fit my needs well and come on and off quickly so they work really well if you don't tow 247 but it you tow very often like for a living I would recommend the full replacement ones cause they have less blindspot but if you tow every now and then they will suit your needs just fine I would recommend this product it you tow every now and then
Service and product review. Everything began with the virtual storefront providing a comprehensive review of the product and a competitive price. I could not find a brick and mortar dealer for this product in my area with such a minimal lead time. $450 for a set of OEM tow mirrors was not in the budget I purchased two towing mirrors for my 1500 Silverado. One was out of stock in the warehouse, but a customer service rep called me to tell me it would still ship and arrive the same day, just not in the same package from etrailer. This simple act gained my confidence in etrailer to recommend them others. The products purchased installed simply and quickly. Great Job!

CIPA Custom Towing Mirror - Slip On - Driver Side
Exceeded expectations as a add on to the factory mirrors for both a Chevy Silverado truck and a Ford F150. It appears the extension is a perfect match and functional solution for trailer towing without the expenditure of new mirrors. Etrailer was not only the greatest value for this product from any internet site or regional store supply, but they also beat their date of delivery by six days on a UPS business delivery. I will definetly use etrailer for future purchases!!
Item was of great quality, as was 4 other items that I ordered with it.. Driver & passenger mirrors fit my 2005 Chevy Silverado 2500 perfectly. etrailer price was outstanding. My order was processed quickly, with no problems at all. Delivery was also fast. Free shipping was a plus as I met the minimum purchase amount with such order. I would definitely recommend etrailer products to others. Thanks.

CIPA Custom Towing Mirror - Slip On - Driver Side
The mirrors attach per the instructions, but the part of the mirror housing that goes over the existing mirror does not fit securely to the housing of the existing mirror. I have nylon tie-wraps squeezing my extended mirror frames to make them catch the existing mirror housing to maintain the clamp effect for the tightening mechanism.
I purchased both right and left mirrors from etrailer.com, along with a hitch. I was surprised that the shipment arrived a day earlier than the the expedited arrival date I was quoted - for no additional fee! I installed the mirrors-using all included parts-and took the truck for a test drive. There was some vibration in the add-on mirrors, but not anything like what I was lead to expect. Maybe some of the other users didn't apply the sticky backed cloth, or didn't align the slot in the brace with the tab in the mirror case properly. I took the time to look at it closely and I'm very pleased, except for the minor vibration. I did screw the retainer screws all the way down to the bottom-with no cracking or splitting of anything-and the add-on mirrors seem to work just fine. Thank you etrailer for your service and CIPA for a well engineered, inexpensive set of mirrors.

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 Mirror - Slip On - Driver Side
Tommy C was the best. What a great personality, to be on the phone as a marketer. I CAN say I shopped two other competitors, and everything about your business model absolutely yarded you far above any of the others. When I read the other sites, horror stories abound about wrong pro\ducts, terrible returns, etc. Not so with your site, and final purchase experience. I bought mirrors for two of my trucks. All of them fit, are the CORRECT application, and mount up correctly. In the pics you see the two WIDE trailer mirrors I got for my red tow vehicle. The chrome replacement I ordered for my cream puff blue stepside (which had been shattered in an accident) is also a wonderful, exact replacement, as expected. Enjoy the pics. Ask for Tommy C : - )
Fit is correct, unlike the set I got on line from another supplier. Shipping was super fast and I installed them this morning. easy to install & adjust.

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.

CIPA Custom Towing Mirror - Slip On - Driver Side
These fit well and installed easily and quickly. Drivers side is stable and rock solid however; passenger side has a vibration at speed that I have not been able to eliminate yet. All in all, a great purchase that provides good views down both sides of our 24' trailer and the traffic behind. The mirrors look fine and are not at all obviously large or obtrusive.
I am new at towing a camper that is larger than the width of my F-150. After reviewing all the towing mirrors, I decided on the CIPA Custom. They attached over my existing mirrors easily and rode steady. I noticed very little vibration, even on rough roads. Exceptional product for temporary use.

CIPA Universal Fit Towing Mirror - Strap On - Black
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
