The CIPA # CM11980 is a universal fit mirror that clamps onto your factory side-view mirror to extend your line of sight while you're towing.

This will fit a manual or powered mirror with a lip between the housing and the glass. Check out the installation video I have attached at the 1:14 minute mark. This will show the adjustable clamps the mirror uses to mount. I took a look at some vehicles like your Sport and the mirror housing looks like it would be a good fit for the # CM11980.

For an up close look at the clamp check out # CM11980C.

This mirror is sold in a quantity of one so to a mirror on each side of your vehicle you will need to order 2.

I have linked the above mentioned part to this page for your viewing and purchasing convenience.
