The K-Source Universal Dual Lens Towing Mirrors # KS3990 are not going to interfere with the blind spot monitoring on your 2024 Toyota Highlander XLE. I will say from personal experience you will likely will not like the dual lens style mirror as they are going to vibrate slightly in high winds driving on the highway and with the much smaller size of the lens makes it difficult to see clearly on the highways. I personally prefer the more simpler CIPA # 7070-2 with a larger single mirror. I personally find the simple strap retention system is also much easier to use and less likely to become damaged.
