2019 Honda Ridgeline
A nice alternative for temporary mirrors for trailer hauling. They didn't interfere with the remote mirror adjustment on the factory installed outside mirrors and held securely once adjusted. I used them on a 2019 Honda Ridgeline.
by: Laura 03/22/2024
We needed these extended mirrors on our van when pulling our camper. They fit perfect on our 2014 E250. Husband was very happy with the added rear vision they provide. The mirrors stayed put and adjusted even on the interstate. Great purchase!

One was broken when I got them. It will be returned. The other one was securely attached. After 6 hours on the road it fell off into five lanes of traffic at 60 miles per hour. I did not go back to attempt to pick it up. Worthless junk. Do not buy.
by: Daniel09/16/2023
I believe this is a good product. The best rear/side view I can attain to improve my rear/side view on the extremely undersized stock mirrors on our 2019 Suburban.
However, I have lost three mirrors in travel that have literally fell off the stock mirror frame. I even enhanced the last one with a stop nut to keep the clamping screw from possibly loosening during travel. Thought maybe it was loosening up from road vibrations. Also, the third mirror dropped off just this past weekend while rolling down the road. Needless to say, there is nothing left of the mirror after hitting the pavement. I still have a pair of mirrors that strap onto the stock mirrors that have never fallen off. I will probably use them until I find something better.
If you guys have any suggestions to keep these mirrors mounted, let me know.
by: Leonard04/03/2023
The mirrors look great and fit as I expected but I have not driven the truck yet to see how they will handle the rough ride, (Vibration) from the truck. My reason for not giving the Excellent rating. The mirrors gave me an additional 5 inches of visibility on each side of my 1995 Ford F250. GREAT!! I expect this to be just what I was looking for

I have not actually used the mirrors as it is winter in Billings Montana and none of my camping locations are open, but I did tried the mirrors on my vehicle to make sure they fit.

Chevrolet Colorado
This mirror was the only one I could find that would work on my 2021 Chevy Colorado pickup. I have been very pleased with the mirrors. I have learned to check the tightness of the screw on clamps, each time I stop. I have lost two of these from road vibration. I now have 3 of them, so I have a spare if another one gets lost or broken.

Quick shipping. Mirrors fit exactly as in simple assembly instructions. You can actually exceed 10 feet width with these mirrors.
by: Kathy09/16/2022
I use these on a Ford Escape when towing my 13' camper. I will admit it took me a few tries to make sure they were tight enough to stay on but I figured it out. I make a point to check the knobs whenever I stop on my travels. After being on the road for a while my eyes adjust to just using the towing mirrors. I don't really notice much, if any, vibration from them. Glad I made the purchase.

2024 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
to much trouble to keep on. used zip ties and still could not get them to stay on. tightened them down as much as I could.
by: Tony10/08/2022
Positionally, the mirror performs well. However, the tension brackets provide inadequate clamping strength. The mirror is essentially a sail that wind is pushing against as you drive down the road... constantly challenging the two lone clamps. You can only tighten the clamps so much before tension partially releases and you need to re-tighten. I lost one of these mirrors five minutes into my second 9 mile test drive on the freeway. I ended up employing a bungee/zip tie contraption as a safety net so I don't lose the other mirror. My vehicle is a 2014 Honda Odyssey.
by: John08/02/2023
The mirrors are of high quality and worked well on my 2016 Escalade. Until one didn't. Blew off on the highway. My fault, I am sure, but I thought they were plenty tight. In fairness, the Escalade mirrors did not lend themselves well to trailering add-ons. Now have a 2022 Silverado with Snap and Zap mirrors by K-Source that clamp over the factory mirrors. Work great and look great. Got them from you as well. Always impressed by your available inventory and great service!
by: Mark h10/06/2019
Mirror extensions. Very easy to put on. Fit like a glove and now I have great vision behind the trailer. Well worth the cost. Placed on Toyota Highlander 2018.

Only fair at best. One came off at freeway speed. The other needed a bungee cord to keep it from going out of position at freeway speed.

Toyota 4Runner
When I picked up our Yamaha boat with our 4Runner, I could not see to change lanes on the way home. Never knew mirror extensions existed until a quick search online. Decided it was cheaper than a new truck with tow mirrors and I’m glad I bought these. I was hesitant at first, thinking they’d look tacky, but I mounted mine on the bottom of the mirror and they aren’t bad looking. They extend out plenty allowing me to see to back up and change lanes while driving. And they are extremely adjustable. And they can be removed in seconds when not needed. Do your homework before purchasing like I did, that way you’ll know if you over tighten the mounting screws you can potentially break the bracket. Knowing this, I just snug mine down with a reasonable amount of effort, and they stay put. Whoever designed these, thank you for creating a solution to what could have been a very expensive alternative had we purchased another vehicle with tow mirrors.

These mirrors worked great every time I used them, never had an issue. Would definitely recommend them.
by: David06/20/2022
works great, no issues with the product. I mounted them on the bottom of the mirror, just worked better that way. The issue I had was the driver side mirror folding in a couple times from trucks going past due to the added surface area.

All still good. No other folding in of the mirrors.
by: Chris12/09/2023
I put these on my 2020 Ford Ranger. Tightened everything as tight as possible but only went about a mile at 40 mph and one flew off in ditch. Design should be set up so wind against it makes it tighter not fly off. Oh well, live and learn.

2011 Toyota Tacoma
Needed extensions to see very narrow rowing-scull trailer behind my 2011 Toyota Tacoma. Can now see nearly whole trailer when going straight, and through all backing operations. Mounted unit to bottom of existing mirrors with extension mirror hinged downward (like other Tacoma customer). Added LocTite to fastenings. Quality of materials very good. Mirror sizes perfect, and convex shape just right. Thanks for a good product.

Work well. Fit well. Stay in position. Good extra view. Only complaint is the black finish on 2 Allen wrench cap head screws rusted in first 6 months. Disassembled and repainted.

2006 Dodge Dakota
Kudos to the folks that designed these mirrors. I have worked in the automotive repair business for over 50yrs, I've seen trash parts and good parts. These mirrors are excellent quality and they fit my 2006 Dodge Dakota crew cab like a silk glove, also the stock electric mirrors are still able to be adjusted no interference from the clamps on the extension mirrors. Great product, thank you

Not designed for my truck, 2017 GMC 3500, and fell off on the rough highway I40
by: Manuel07/04/2020
Good mirrors allow you to see the back end of the trailer. Super easy instal and setup. Everything going well on our first ever trip with our new trailer and new mirrors, until return trip. My passenger side mirror was blown away. Contacted CIPA the manufacturer a week ago and never heard anything back from them they are just dismissing my inquiry. That the only reason for the low rating

- Recommended Towing Mirrors for a 2004 Lexus LX 470I assume these towing mirrors are for a 2004 Lexus LX 470. If that is the case then I recommend the CIPA Universal Towing Mirrors part # CM11980-2 or the K-Source Universal Towing Mirrors part # KS3891-2. These mirrors will both do an excellent job of extending your field of view. The CIPA mirrors will be easier to take on and off the vehicle but the downside of this easy on/off install is that they are not as secure as the K-Source mirrors. The added security from the straps are then...

- Will CIPA Towing Mirrors # CM11980-2 Allow Factory Mirrors to Still AdjustYour factory mirrors will still be able to adjust with the CIPA Towing Mirrors part # CM11980-2 installed. There would be enough room between the housing and the glass for it to work like normal.

- Recommended Towing Mirrors For a 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500Yes, you will be able to use the clamp on CIPA Towing Mirrors # CM11980-2 on your 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. I have linked a video below where we installed these mirrors on a 2019 Silverado. Personally I find using a set of custom fit mirrors like the K-Source Snap & Zap Custom Towing Mirrors # KS80930 as the best solution. These mirrors clamp around the factory mirrors and have no pieces or clamps that can get lost or damaged. The housing provides for a very stable platform to reduce...

I find the Furrion Vision S Wireless RV Observation Camera System w/ Side Marker Light Cameras # FCE48TASL-05 is very helpful in situations like you have. The side cameras that come with this kit allow you to see the position of the trailer and...

The CIPA Custom Towing Mirror part # CM11401 will not fit nor do they offer a set of custom fit towing mirrors for your Grand Cherokee which is why you will have to go with a universal option like the above. The CIPA Universal Towing Mirrors and the K-Source Universal Towing Mirrors are the two most popular options for your Grand Cherokee...
view full answer... - Towing MIrrors to Fit a 2018 Jeep Wrangler JLSince you didn't like the # KS3891 mirrors your next best option is the CIPA # CM11980-2 mirrors. We did test these on a JK, as shown in the video and picture, but not the JL yet. You need about a 1 inch gap between the top of the mirror face in between the black plastic housing for these to work. The CIPA custom mirrors you asked about, part # CM11550, definitely will not fit your JL. They're specifically designed for Ford F-150's from 2015-2019.

- Compatible Towing Mirror for 2008 Ford E-150The CIPA Custom Towing Mirrors - Slip On - Driver Side and Passenger Side # CM11800 are a custom fit for the F-series trucks. The 2004 - 2014 Ford F-150 trucks are what they fit. For your 2008 Ford E-150, we have custom extendable towing mirrors and then universal fit options. For the full replacements you can use # KS61199-00F for electric adjustment or # KS61201-02F for manual adjustment.

Not only does this offer you 7-1/2" wide x 4-5/8" tall surface area of additional visibility, these mirrors also come with adjustable bars that allow you to position each mirror closer or farther from your vehicle. As far as attachment, the CIPA mirrors clamp onto your current factory side mirrors. If you need an idea of how the mirrors install,...
view full answer... - Will the CIPA Universal Towing Mirrors CM11980 Fit a 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500Yes, the CIPA Universal Towing Mirrors part # CM11980-2 will fit your 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. I took a look at the housing and there appears to be plenty of lip for the mirror to attach to so you will not have any issues with compatibility. There are not any custom fit towing mirror available for the 2019 model as of July 2019 so a universal set like the above is your only option now.
view full answer... - Recommended Towing Mirrors for 2007 Nissan TitanI have a solution for you, but the CIPA # CM11401 is designed to fit on mirrors for Dodge Ram trucks. Unfortunately there are not a slip-on style mirror available for your Nissan Titan, so I instead recommend using the CIPA Universal Towing Mirrors # CM11980-2 which are a universal fit towing mirror that will fit on your 2007 truck. I've linked a review video of these mirrors on a newer Nissan Titan that I recommend having a look at.
view full answer... - Recommended Towing Mirrors for a 2017 Honda Pilot with LaneWatch Camera On Passenger MirrorI took a look at the passenger side mirror for a 2017 Honda Pilot equipped with the LaneWatch feature. This feature will inhibit use of the CIPA Universal Dual Lens Towing Mirrors part # 11953-2 and most like this as well. Therefore, the best option for you would be with the CIPA Universal Towing Mirrors part # CM11980-2 which only attaches using the top mirror housing lip so the LaneWatch feature on the passenger side mirror will not be an issue at all.
view full answer... - Recommended Weight Distribution and Brake Controller for a 2014 Airstream Sport 16The hitch weight of the 2014 Airstream Sport 16 is 350 lbs while dry. This will likely increase to around 500ish while loaded. While towing the 2014 Airstream Sport 16 with your 2016 Volkswagen Touareg, a weight distribution system will be a good ideal as it will help with braking and trailer sway which can be a bigger issue on these smaller trailers. I recommend the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution System part # FA92-00-0600 with the 2" Hitch Ball part # EQ91-00-6080. This is a great system...
view full answer... - Towing Mirrors for 2007 Ford F-150 XLThe hinge on the bottom corner is going to cause interference with custom-fit towing mirrors so the best options are going to be universal mirrors. The CIPA Universal Towing Mirrors # CM11980-2 may be an option but I cannot quite tell from your photo if your mirrors have the needed lip for these mirrors to clip onto, though it is possible it may just be the angle. Another option is the CIPA Universal Deluxe Door-Mount Mirrors # 11650-2 which simply attach to your door via straps, though...

- Tow Mirror Recommendation for 2019 Honda OdysseyThe CIPA # CM11980-2 and # 7070 are both good choices that we've test fit on a 2019 Odyssey with good results (see linked videos). Either choice would work fine for you, but I personally prefer the # KS3891-2 from K-Source due to the ratcheting straps used to hold the towing mirror to the factory mirror housing. The ratcheting straps allow for a tight fit which helps minimize vibration which therefore would provide a clearer view of what's going on behind and next to you while towing. I'll...
view full answer... - Towing Mirror Recommendation for 2018 Nissan TitanWe have universal style towing mirrors that we know fit your 2018 Nissan Titan well but the CIPA custom fit ones you mentioned are not a fit. Instead we have the CIPA Universal Towing Mirrors # CM11980-2 that easily attach to the top lip of your mirror housing for an easy and secure install. I attached a review video for these mirrors that shows them installed and used on a similar 2017 Nissan Titan as well.
view full answer... - Tow Mirror Solution for 2005 Chevy Silverado 3500 with Telescoping MirrorsWe do have a tow mirror solution that will fit your 2005 Chevy Silverado 3500 that has the telescoping mirrors but none of the custom fit options we carry like the # KS80800 work with the telescoping setup you have. So the best option is the CIPA tow mirrors part # CM11980-2 which clip to the top of the mirror housing and provide you with a wider view behind you when towing. I attached a review video for this for you to check out as well.

- Tow Mirror Solution for 2019 Ford Expedition XLT with Folding MirrorsFor your 2019 Ford Expedition with folding mirrors we have towing mirrors that will work great like the CIPA part # CM11980-2 which will allow the mirrors to still fold but we do not have a slip on style for your vehicle at this time. I attached a picture that shows what these mirrors look like installed on a similar Expedition as well as a review video for you to check out too.

- Tow Mirror Recommendation for 2017 GMC Sierra 1500 with Telescoping MirrorsAs long as your mirrors don't have the chrome casing on them the best solution is the CIPA Towing Mirrors part # CM11980-2 which will clip to the top lip of your telescoping mirrors for a wider viewing angle. There are no slip-on style mirrors that fit the telescoping mirrors you have on your truck currently.

For your 2018 Expedition we do not have any custom-fit mirrors but we do have universal fit towing mirrors that you can see on the linked page. For dual-lens mirrors I suggest CIPA # 11953-2 for your Expedition. We also have the K-Source # KS3990. Both are sets of two mirrors with a dual-lens design. For a single...
view full answer... - CIPA Tow Mirror Recommendation for 2015 Ford F-150The clamp on tow mirrors you referenced part # CM11980-2 would fit your 2015 Ford F-150 but we also have a custom set of slip on mirrors with part # CM11550 that are going to fit the easiest and provide best stability and visibility since they were custom fit for your truck.

For a set of towing mirrors that we have confirmed fit of, I recommend the CIPA Universal Towing Mirrors part # CM11980-2 or the K-Source Universal Towing Mirrors part # KS3891-2. These mirrors will both do an excellent job of extending your field of view. The CIPA...

I do have a set of towing mirrors that will work for you and they are a snap on mirror part # KS80920 on our site. Instead of using clips like universal mirrors they slide onto the existing mirror which gives it a snug fit. It is rare to loose a slide on mirror and based on your experience I think you would be happier with them.
