Question:

Looking for pair driver/passenger towing mirrors for 2018 Toyota Highlander XLE. Your web page implies that the CM11401/11402 mirrors fit this vehicle however, the dont match the profile of the mirror at all. Before I order these, can someone confirm that these mirrors are the best/correct fit or suggest a different model number? I prefer the slip over vs. the clip on. Even if they are returnable, Im looking to start towing late next week so turn around time is an issue if the incorrect part is ordered. Thanks. 1 photo attached tried to upload a second image but clicking on link did nothing...

The CIPA Custom Towing Mirror # CM11401 that you referenced is actually designed to fit certain model years of the Dodge Ram and will not fit your 2018 Toyota Highlander. There is not a similar custom slip-on (or snap-on) towing mirror available for your vehicle, most likely because of that unique profile design on its factory mirrors.

With that being said we do have some universal options that will work great. I specifically recommend the K-Source # KS3990 because of its dual lens and ratcheting strap system that provides a much tighter fit for reduced vibration during travel compared to similar options. Two mirrors are included for both the driver and passenger side.

I have attached an image of these installed on the 2018 Toyota Highlander along with a full install video so you can see exactly how these will fit and look on your Highlander.
