2008 Range Rover Sport Towing Mirror Recommendation
Question:
Im looking for a non-permanent towing mirror extention that will fit on my 2008 Range Rover Sport Supercharged mirrors. Which towing mirror do you recommend? Note that the Rovers mirrors are a complex shape see attached pictures. They are not flat across the back, they are not the same width as they extend away from the car, and their top lip is curved. I was looking at your part #s KS3891, 11953, and 40375, but not sure if any of these will work or be what you would recommend for my application. Thanks for your help.

Due to the unusual profile of the mirrors on your Range Rover, I am not too confident that any of the mirrors you mentioned would be a great fit.
The clip on mirrors depend on the mirror having a relatively flat rear and front lip running around the mirror housing in order to fasten to the mirror. Because your mirror is so curved, I do not think you would be happy with the fit.
This would leave a door mount like the CIPA # 11650. From the tests we have done, we have found this mirror to have the best visibility and least amount of vibration of all of our universal towing mirrors. I have attached a demonstration video for you to check out.
