I have a Lance cab over camper that I just mounted and need additional mirrors. My research has led me to two different CIPA models. Can you 1st tell me if both models will fit and then explain the difference between the two models. Model 11000 Model LVT 2000

Both the CIPA Custom Towing Mirror # 11000 and the Longview Custom Towing Mirrors # LVT-2000 are compatible fits for your 1996 Ford F-350 Crew Cab Long Bed Dually. Instruction details for the Longview mirrors are linked to this page.

The product page for each towing mirror will show the type of factory mirror they will fit.

Both mirrors are basically the same in appearance and in that they require no tools to assemble and can be placed over your factory OEM mirrors with little difficulty. The CIPA mirror only comes with one mirror while the Longview item includes both driver and passenger side mirrors. Both are manually adjustable and will not obstruct your existing mirror.
