Custom-Fit Towing Mirror
Easily extend your field of vision and reduce blind spots with this CIPA slip-on towing mirror. By adding it to your OEM side-view mirror, you can see beyond the end of your trailer. This will allow you to safely and easily change lanes, pass, and park with a trailer in tow.
This mirror is molded to perfectly match the contours of your factory side mirror. To install, simply slide the towing mirror over your side-view mirror, and use the included hook and hand knob hold the mirror in place. Slip the hook over the arm of your factory mirror, and secure the towing mirror to the hook with the knob.

Today we're going to be taking a look at the CIPA custom slip-on towing mirror for either the driver or passenger side. It's a universal fit. The mirror fits a '78 to '91 Chevrolet Blazer and GMC Jimmy, '80 to '87 Chevrolet CK series pickup and GMC CK series pickup, '78 to '91 Chevrolet and GMC Suburban, 1980 to '96 Chevrolet and GMC van, '84 to '93 Dodge Ram, '88 to '93 Dodge Ram pickup and Dodge Ram Charger. The towing mirror slips over your factory side view mirror to extend your line of sight. It allows you to safely and easily change lanes, pass and park while towing a trailer. It's going to feature the manually adjustable mirror face.
That's going to let you customize your view so you can simply press in on the sides or the corners to achieve the angle you need for your application. It's got a nice aerodynamic shape to it. It's going to offer a nice tight fit to help prevent vibration and wind noise. The slip-on mirror maintains the aerodynamics of your factory mirror. This is custom designed for your vehicle so the add-on mirror will not obstruct your factory mirrors and it won't interfere with adjustments that need to be made to the factory mirrors. It's a tool-free installation.
It's going to come with the ABS and polypropylene plastic hardware as well as illustrated instructions to walk you through the installation process. The mirror itself when it comes to the housing is durable ABS plastic construction and it's going to feature a scratch-resistant mirror face. Again, the universal mirror works on either the driver side or passenger side of the vehicle. It's made in the U.S.A. A few measurements to go over with you real quick. Measuring here at the center of the mirror, the mirror face is going to measure about 4-1/2 inches.
From this edge right here to the end of the mirror measures about 5-3/8 of an inch. That's going to be about the amount of distance that's added to your factory mirror. Going this direction in the center, the mirror face is going to measure about 5-1/4 to 5-3/8 of an inch. It's going to be a little bit more narrow here at the outer edge, a little bit wider here towards the factory mirror. A pretty simple installation. You just slip this on your factory mirror.
This hook is going to hook around the factory mirror arm. The threaded piece comes back through the housing and then you just thread on the mounting nut until everything is tight and secure. That's going to do it for today's look at the CIPA custom slip-on towing mirror for the driver or passenger side.

Durable mirror slides over either the driver's-side or passenger's-side mirror on your vehicle to extend your line of sight while you're towing. Hook and hand knob securely fastens the slip-on mirror in place. Tool-free installation.This mirror works GREAT on my '94 Silverado. Doesn't rattle or go out of adjustment. And I can see around my 5th wheel, waaaay back down the road. Custom fit for the Chevy/GMC mirrors and doesn't just attach with rubber bands. Love it!
The Mirrors worked Great on my trip and would highly recommend them for anyone Towing! The Mirrors stayed nice and tight and gave Great Visibility on my Suburban.

STILL GREAT! AFTER A YEAR OF USE..
The mirror extension fit my 1994 Silverado perfectly. More than that however, the staff at Etrailer has shown above average concern over being certain I was satisfied through followup e-mails.
Thank you, staff at Etrailer

It has been just fine. Probably saved me a ticket by allowing me to see what is going behind me.
I have an 82 Chev C20 and these mirrors worked perfectly. I can see behind toy hauler just like I wanted to. Can't beat these mirrors for the money!! Ordered on Sunday via internet and got them on Thursday.(Would have liked to have received them on Wednesday as I paid for three day shipping, but, oh well.)

Still going strong and holding up well!
The towing mirrors fit VERY loose on my Factory 91 GMC 2500 mirrors. I took up the space by gluing weather-strip inside the towing mirrors. Also, the Plastic J-hooks that hold the tow mirror in place are only 1/4 inch and are all plastic. I expect them to break on a cold day with any strain on them. The towing mirrors them selves appear to be well made and are adjustable both up/down as well as in/out. That was a nice option.
These mirrors are just what I need to see the back corners of my travel trailer. Perfect fit on my 1994 GMC Sierra. In my experience the product selection, pricing, and timely shipping of "etrailer" are unequaled.
Received the CIPA Towing mirror very quick. Works perfect. It is just as described and couldn't be happier with it. Thank you.
My installation was a 1992 GMC 1500 p/u
Installation was a snap. They fit very well not loose at all. Allows me to see down the side of the trailer in tow.
It's the best add on mirror I've found. Much better than the strap on type.
great product fit like a factory mirror
Good price, fits pretty good, quality good for price point.
