2019 Toyota 4Runner Tow Mirror Recommendation

Question

Question:

Hi, i have a 2019 toyota 4Runner and have had problems launching my boat. I launch/remove my boat 1 or 2 times per year. I had no problem launching removing the boat with my RAV4 but the 4Runner C Pillars are visually restrictive for a boat my size 18.5foot fFsh/Ski Tahoe 400TF. What would be the best removable outer mirror extension for my 4Runner? Im not sure if Im a fan of the convex style mirror.

Of the tow mirror fits we have for your 2019 Toyota 4Runner the best option is going to be the K-Source tow mirrors part # KS3891-2 that you referenced. These are easy to install, have wide viewing angle, and are among our highest rated mirror set that we offer. The mirrors are convex like you mentioned but they aren't so convex that you can't see very far behind you. These are just enough to give you a wider viewing angle but still allow you to see behind you similar to your current vehicle's mirrors. See picture.

I attached a review video for these mirrors on a similar Toyota for you to check out too.
