Hi Jose!
If we are talking about a no-touch style car wash (which I always recommend because you never know who went through the thing before you), you can definitely keep the K-Source Snap & Zap Custom Towing Mirrors # KS39NQ on your 2023 Jeep Gladiator. If you are going through one that does have the big spinning mop things, I would take them off. Odds are they would be fine, but if it were me, I don't think I would want to take the chance. Plus these come off pretty easily, so pop them off beforehand.
What are you towing with your Gladiator?

I got the extensions because the size of the original mirrors, I want a better vision. My wife and myself loved the shape of the Jeep, besides it's noise, jumping, and gas expensive. We don't go to the beach, or trails or ranches, only city and travel, I got in 09/12/23 and never remove the roof or doors or using the 4 wheel drive, but we love it I will follow your advice. Thank you again.
