While you can definitely use the K-Source Universal Dual Lens Towing Mirrors # KS3990 on your 2018 Chevy Silverado 1500 to tow your 30' trailer, I recommend going with more of a custom fit like the CIPA # CM10950 or even using towing mirrors that replace your OEM mirrors like part # KS62137-38G (manual), # KS62147-48G (electric/heat), or # KS62135-36G (electric/heat with LED turn signals). Obviously the price will increase as the quality of the mirror and how it looks on your Chevy gets better. I really like the OEM replacements and recommend going with one of them because of how easy they are to use and it is one less thing you have to think about before going on a trip but I know that they are a bit up there in price.

If you do go with one of the OEM replacement options please note that you need to use the pair that has the same features that you currently have. For example, if you currently have manual mirrors then you wouldn't get the features of the electric/heat with LED signals because your Chevy doesn't have the wiring run for that.

I have attached some review videos that you can check out.
