Recommended Towing Mirrors for a 2017 Honda Pilot with LaneWatch Camera On Passenger Mirror

Question:

Will the clip on towing mirror 11953 that etrailer recommends for the 2017 honda pilot fit the passenger side mirror which has a camera housed on the bottom part of the mirror? Im asking because I ordered the cipa universal bar towing mirror kit after etrailer said that it was test fitted to the passenger side. I received the mirrors today, but the only way I could make it fit on the passenger side was to adjust the passenger side mirror to the extreme upward view giving enough room for the clamp to fit. It worked on the driver side because the mirror view is best in an upper position. I nee the mirrors by this Saturday 27th at the latest.

I 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.
