Expert Reply:
We can offer you a choice of universal-fit towing mirrors for your 2004 Ford Explorer XLS. These are available in clip/clamp-on, door-mount and fender-mount types that can all be seen by clicking on the included link.
In the clip-on variety that attach to your existing mirrors I recommend the K-Source # KS3891 which is sold as a single unit. This installs without tools. For a wider-view option you can use a door-mount mirror like CIPA # 11650 as long as your doors do NOT have plastic body molding at the bottom of the door (sometimes called cladding).
The set of Longview Custom Towing Mirrors # CTM2200A that you referenced fits Explorers only up to the 2003 model year.
