Longview Custom Towing Mirrors - Slip On - Driver and Passenger Side
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!!!
Their customer service is top notch. I ordered mirrors in November after my fall trip and put them in the garage. In March I opened the box to discover 2 parts were missing. They sent me new parts and I'm in business. Thanks!

I just wrestled the mirror extensions on. I'm a bit concerned about the 'keeper' screw, it has quite a bit of tension on it. How long am I covered if it breaks? Is it easily available if it does? I'm also not thrilled about the lower edge, it juts down 3/4" past the actual mirror housing. The padding on the bottom of the extensions isn't touching anything, it's about 7/16" - 1/2" from the mirror housing. Please take a look at the pics attached, maybe I have them on wrong...
London and I Thank You for this Fine product! While towing London's Trailer; it helps me keep him safe! We Ride in different State Parks; and attend Equine events! Note: The only reason I gave a Four Star revenue; was the screw clips, are easy too lose! I ordered an extra set; and sure enough I did lose one setup! The Mirrors themselves are Excellent! I was warned about vibration; however I never go over 60 MPG while towing my Horse London, and no vibration occurred! Smile! London & pickles (aka Michael)

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.

These work great on my 2001 Mazda truck. I use them when towing my 17 travel trailer. I’ve tried various clip-on, suction cup, and strap-on extension mirrors. Some time or another, these mirrors will suddenly give and fall off. I don’t have to worry about that with these Longview mirrors. Wish I had found these years ago.
Assembled poorly. One of the mirrors was glued together poorly and came apart before or during shipping. Would not fit a 2001 explorer sport with puddle light as said by their expert. Return was made easy by etrailer.

Delivery was quick. The mirrors slipped on with ease and fit well over the existing mirrors and looked almost factory attached. Then came the task for securing the attachments to the vehicle. While the concept is easy someone forgot to check deminsions of the parts and were to short to work on my vehicle. I contacted etrailer by chat and asked if there were alternatives for securing the mirrors and unfortunately there weren't any. Then came my decision to use heavy duty electrical looped through the hole the sent hardware was to be inserted through. Unless you look closely they are not easily seen. When I want to remove the mirrors I simply snip the cable tie on each mirror and ues new ones the next time I need to use the mirrors. While my "fix" works they only 3 star because to the attachment hardware.
Bought the custom extensions mirrors for my Silverado to aid in backing up our new camper trailer. Easy to install and remove. Videos were a great help. They not only helped in parking the camper but added a great deal of visibility while driving which makes for a safer trip.

Mirrors are fine. But, never used them not even one time. I put them on to see if they fit and took them off 5 minutes layer and put them back in the box. Reason, I sold the truck before I got to use them.
Only used twice as I found Tundra's stock mirrors were more than adequate for camper we were towing. I found mirrors were finicky to install without marring stock mirrors and never had a good feeling about security even though I never lost one at highway speeds.

Be aware. The pad coming with those mirrors is way to small. There will be spots, where the inner of the mirrors touches the plastic of your real mirror. It will strach them! Tried to pad the mirror more from the inside. But its not possible to get such a thin pad like the one coming with these mirrors. In this case, they get to thick and dont fit anymore. Currently on use on a 1995 Chevy Suburban (aftermarket mirrors).
These people have great customer service and the products seem to always be in stock

I have a 2000 Silverado 2500 and the CIPA towing mirrors fit perfectly. I took my time putting them on as suggest by over Product Reviews, and did not have a problem.
I purchased the CTPA Custom Towing Mirrors about a year ago and have been very pleased with them. They installed easily and don't move around while driving at hwy speeds. The reason I didn't give them 5 stars was because when I put them over the stock mirrors the first time it took a lot of pressure to get them to clip onto the mirror and I was concerned about breaking them. They have gone on a little easier each time since then.

Installation was very easy and secure. On test run there was no vibration angles remain constant for easy rearview examination
Ordered for my 2000 Chevrolet K2500 pickup. Great fit. Quick delivery.

this is the second set I have purchased this summer (traded trucks). mirrors do a great job of improving the rear vision of trailer. Gets out and beyond the camper. Both sets function great the second pair the finish had some minor inperfections but they are after all temporary mirrors. I would buy rhem again. Great price for great reults. I also parked truck in the hot sun and put a cord around mirrors just to form it tighter to my mirrors on second set not needed, just me
These mirrors look like they will probably work for towing my trailer. They vibrate pretty bad, and the mirror is not convex at all, so you don't see much, especially when it is vibrating. If you get a 4x5.5 blind spot mirror, it helps alot, and you don't notice the vibrating. Then you take a heat gun, and heat up the inner top corner of the housing, and reshape it so it fits tighter, it makes it better. The mirrors are pretty ugly too, I'm glad they go on and off easy.

Overall a very good product. Fits well an easy to install. Doesn't interfere with the breakaway function of the vehicle mirror. Mirrors do vibrate some, but not as bad as others I've used in the past. My one suggestion for product improvement would be to stiffen or dampen the mirror mounts to reduce vibration.
Actually I would give them a 4.5 stars. Not a 5 just because they don't go far enough out for me to see down the sides of my snowmobile trailer converted to a mobile workshop.

I purchased these tow mirrors for my 1995 jeep XJ to have extra visibility while towing my offroad trailer. All mounting hardware is still in good shape after one year and about 8 weekend trips. The reason I gave 4 stars is because it does become a pain to remove mirrors when getting through the trees and having to reinstall, but that is what offroad life is like.
We find the mirrors to be a little distracting. They seem to point down to much and can't seem to adjust them. They are fairly easy to install. We got them to use while pulling our RPod camper but they weren't helpful. Could be the operator.

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!

These are the best removable towing mirrors I've used, and I've gone through a few different kinds over the years. They look great on the truck, almost like stock towing mirrors at first glance. They have decent viewing area, low distortion & clear image, minimal vibration, and seem to stay aimed in position pretty well. They block the slightest amount of the stock mirrors at top and bottom on my model...not enough to matter. Also, ETRAILER shipped them to me FAST, and that was with economy shipping option!
I liked these mirrors and they were perfect for the job I was doing, pulling a trailer across country. The only problem I had was that I received two of the "inserts" for the same side rather than one for each side. I was able to make it work and, like I said, these worked well and looked like factory options, without looking "ugly". Wish I could get just the one needed insert and then it would be "5 stars". Here is a photo of the mirrors after a snowy road-trip night. You can see that they don't stick out too far but I found that they added just the right amount of angle to be able to see my trailer behind me. Nice product.

I bought the towing mirror to replace one that got damaged. I like the mirror and was pleased that I found the replacement at etrailer.com. The site was easy to use and the order was quickly filled.
This was exactly the mirror I was looking for to match the existing Driver's side. The product has been improved since my last one which blew off from being loose anyhow while this one is engineered better and gives a good view of the blind side of the trailer and right lane. Good for corners and space back ins!!

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.

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.

Product appears to be very good for the price. Easy to install. Easy on and off. Package was damaged upon arrival, but contents were in good shape, and all there.
Very pleased and they work on my truck great!
