These towing mirrors are good quality and easy to attach to the mirrors on my truck.



by:
2016 Toyota Sequoia

Finally, we got extended mirrors for our 2016 Sequoia. OEM mirrors are manageable but inefficient when backing up or switching lanes with a Travel Trailer. The only issue with the extended mirrors is that they vibrate to the extent you get hypnotized. They work best at slow speeds, backing in campgrounds or switching lanes at slow speeds. Sixty-five miles, forget it. Use your best judgment. If the mirrors are well molded into place, the vibration may be minimized. The team at etrailer, from start to finish, was fabulous. Thanks



by:

CIPA Universal Dual Lens Towing Mirrors performed as advertised. I followed others' suggestions and thoroughly cleaned & de-bugged (w/bug cleaner) my Cherokees' existing mirrors so the rubber retaining straps adhered to my Cherokees' mirrors. Also secured a zip tie around the Towing Mirror & the Cherokee mirrors to prevent slippage.
There Was slight vibration of the Towing Mirror image, but nothing I couldn't live with.
The extra extension beyond my Cherokee's mirrors made driving and lane changes much easier, safer, & less stressful. I'd buy these again.

Are these correct mirrors for my 2019 Chevy Blazer? There does not seem to be any adjust to the mirrors.
Please advise,

After looking at your pictures, these will not be able to fit your Chevy Blazer. These will only fit on the Chevy with a tall square shaped mirror. Please see picture in the product description. I am sorry that this was not clear. From the look of your mirrors, you may want to consider part # 7070-2. Those mirrors do not require you to have a specific shaped mirror for them to fit. I have sent your information over to our customer service department for them to further assist with the return of your current mirrors.

Website said it would work and they don’t and I’m stuck with all the shipping charges. First and last time buying here!!!!!!

I know that with the Jeep square shaped mirrors these type of mirrors are more difficult to install. Can you tell me more about how they are not fitting. We have installed these on a 2020 Jeep Gladiator before. Please see the video link below.



by:
2020 Cadillac Escalade

They will work but the fit is really poor and I am sure they will not last long.
Unfortunately, there is no custom fit mirror available for a 2020 Escalade so these will "have to do". It's very hard to tow a 30ft. trailer without the help of extended rear view mirrors. I would not recommend this product. I have attached pictures of the driver-side when "attached" (before driving). As you can see, hopefully, the fitment is abysmal. The mirror is the same for the passenger side. There are four (4) clips on the product that are to hook into the vehicle mirror. Only three (3) fit into the Escalade mirror. This causes an immediate problem with alignment and any pressure, like wind when driving, blows the mirror out of shape making it useless. There does not seem to be a fix for this as the base of the vehicle mirror is narrower than the spacing of the clips on the product.

I will have our customer service team reach out to you. I have an alternate set of mirrors that would attach only at the top of mirrors. It is part # CM11980-2. They will still have a strong attachment to the vehicle.



by:

I go these mirrors for towing a 16' Airstream Basecamp with our Tacoma. The mirrors fit on the truck mirrors reasonably well, adjusting the rubber straps to get them as tight as possible. They provide better visibility behind the trailer to see approaching/passing vehicles. But I was disappointed that they vibrate enough while driving at speeds of 50-60 mph that it is difficult to see the reflected images clearly. Yes you can tell when there is a vehicle back there, but not how far back it is. They perform better when maneuvering at slow speeds and thus help when backing the trailer.



by:

These are easy to use and worked well. Anytime I stopped, I checked to make sure they were still snug and rarely needed to adjust.



by:

I really wanted these to work, because I really enjoyed being able to see around the side of the trailer but if you were driving more than 5 miles an hour they would vibrate to the point where you could not see a clearer image. I tried everything I could tighten the straps adjusting and nothing would keep the vibration down. I have a 2021 ranger with 15,000 miles on it so it’s not like the truck it’s vibrating all over the place because it’s old just need to be a little more sturdy in the areas that hold the mirrors Are just fine



by:

There should be 2 different units, one for the left and one for the right. The right side (passenger side) is difficult to put on due the the bottom connection as the top connection of the left side (driver side). I had a hard time getting the straps tight on the right side due to the curvature of the mirror housig. I looked at reversing the straps but that didn't work. I had to stop the vehicle a couple of time to tighten the right side straps. I did't have a tightness issue on the left side.
I would work much better to have the strap connections on both mirrors at the top.



by:
Toyota Highlander

The mirrors were just what I needed and work well on my Toyota highlander.



by:

Decent quality, concerned rubber straps used to attach will age quickly.



by:
Jeep

Used for a season on a 2020 Jeep Gladiator. Very sturdy, they didn't lose their adjustment all summer. Good visibility by using the dual mirrors realizing the Jeep is only 6' wide so the extensions do not go beyond the 8' wide trailer so there are some blind areas. Have the rear and side cameras on my RV to compensate. Also, the Gladiator tow package came with the "trailer towing mirrors" but they are just a little larger than the base mirrors and Jeep/Mopar do not offer extension mirrors at this time.

Very pleased with this set of extension mirrors after two summers of service. I remove them in the Winter and they re-attach fairly easy for another year service.



by:

Works well stays put would buy again



by:

These mirrors work exactly as advertised.
I’m
a repeat customer of etrailer.com and will continue to turn to them for my trailing needs.



by:
2021 Jeep Wrangler

The mirrors are just as described. They are very easy to put on and work well.



by:

Mirrors work great but a clip popped off while traveling and is missing. Is there anyway I can order a replacement clip? I'm securing the strap with a piece of plastic from an old backpack. It works but is not ideal.
Thanks



by:

A little tricky to adjust just right, and they vibrate a bit, but not bad for the price. The teardrop shape of the '21 Tacoma mirrors don't help.



by:

It was good doing business with you.



by:

This product would work much better if the manufacturer found a way to prevent the inner and outer mirror from vibrating while you are driving/towing. You see, the mirrors were easy attach to our Jeep Gladiator and it was easy to adjust both the inner and outer mirrors the problem is that the inner and outer mirror are so easy adjust that they vibrate so much while driving you almost need a movie-type-disclaimer for them. One that warns you that the vibration will be so bad that it create flashing images, lights, and patterns, which may affect your ability to view the trailer you are towing.



by:

We have used them when we got this camper. This was a replacement for one on the mirrors when a tabs broke off.



by:

They are pretty good for strap on trailer towing mirrors



by:

Way too much vibration at highway speed, is unsafe. Ok for backing.



by:
Jeep

Product is good, just doesn't fit our jeep gladiator mirrors very well.

  • Recommended Towing Mirror for 2019 Subaru Ascent
    Of the mirrors we have as confirmed fits, I'd recommend the CIPA # 11953-2. Each mirror has 2 independently adjustable mirror pieces to provide you with a better field of vision than a mirror with a single face would. This mirror would be a fit unless the Ascent is a Limited or Platinum Edition, which uses a mirror that's different enough that the towing mirror wouldn't be able to attach reliably. If you click the link, you can see a product description video featuring the mirror I recommended.

  • 2016 Ford Expedition Recommended Towing Mirrors

  • Fitment of CIPA Universal Dual Lens Towing Mirrors for 2021 Grand Cherokee L
    The CIPA Universal Dual Lens Towing Mirrors, # 11953-2 is a universal-fit that clips onto your factory side-view mirror.

However, we have not yet had a 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L available to us to confirm the actual fitment.

    Yes, it would. The Prodigy P3 Brake Controller item # 90195 is never really off it just goes into sleep mode. When in sleep mode it's drawing milliamps of power which would take your Kia sitting idle for months to drain your battery. I have the P2 item # 90885 installed in a truck that sits for weeks at a time outside in the cold during the winter and have never had a starting issue.

  • CIPA Towing Mirror Durability
    We've had the same pair of CIPA Universal Dual Lens Towing Mirrors # 11953-2 for as long as I've been at etrailer and they have held up great! The rubber straps are extremely durable and with the hardened plastic construction, the cold weather and salt won't affect the mirrors. They are not heated, but you can treat them with an anti-freeze solution to prevent ice build up.

    We do have CIPA towing mirrors that fit your 2017 Chevy Traverse, and they won't be a Mickey Mouse fit, though the mirrors that fit are all universal fits, as there are no custom options for a Traverse. That means the straps are going to show as opposed to a mirror that slips on, but they are still going to give you the functionality to extend your view, and are going to be a very stable fit. The reason for that is the CIPA universal towing mirrors are secured two ways - they both clip...
