CIPA Dual-View Clip-on Towing Mirror Installation - 2013 Ford Explorer- Video

Today on our 2013 Ford Explorer we're going to be taking a look at the CIPA Dual View Clip-On Towing Mirror, part number 11953. So here I am at the back of my trailer and you can clearly see me in the factory mirror, but if I step away you lose track of me in the factory mirror but you can see me in our towing mirror. Now these are going to help out whether we're driving down the highway and we need to change lanes, or even pulling up to the camp ground, or backing our trailer up. Now this is a dual view mirror. The large mirror here is going to be a flat mirror, giving us an accurate depiction of what's directly behind us, whereas the smaller mirror here is going to be a convex shape, and it's going to be more of a built-in spot mirror. Now we're going to have full adjustment on both of the mirrors, being able to adjust them up and down, left and right, and even diagonally to make sure that we can get that perfect angle so we can see what's behind us, making sure that we're being safe. Now even though our mirror's going to mount in between the glass and the housing we're still going to be able to have full control and full access to our adjustments on our factory mirror, being able to go up and down, left and right, and adjust it to any angle we need. Now we're not going to be able to fully fold our mirror in because the bottom here is going to make contact with our door. more

CIPA Clamp on Universal Fit Towing Mirror Installation - 2013 Ford Explorer- Video

Today on our 2013 Ford Explorer, we're going to be taking a look at the Cipa universal clamp on towing mirror, part number CM11980. Now here I am at the back of my trailer, and you can clearly see me in the factory mirror, but if I move away, you lose track of me. That's where our tow mirror's going to come into play, whether you're driving down the highway and we need to change lanes, or even backing up coming to a campground. Our towing mirror's going to have full adjustability, we're going to be able to adjust it up and down, left and right, and even turn it for a wide angle view. Now, if we come to the top here, and we loosen this knob up, we can actually extend our mirror out for an even wider view, that way we can know what's behind us, and be safe at all times. Then if we come to the back here, and we loosen this knob up, we can actually adjust how tall our mirror's going to sit, we can slide it down for a lower view, or we can slide it up for a little bit of a higher angle. Now, we're not going to lose any function of our factory mirror, we're still going to be able to adjust it to the left and to the right, up and down, and any angle that we may need, and we're still able to even fold in our mirror. Now, since we're not going to have anything obstructing our mirror on the back here, we're still going to be able to utilize our factory turn signal built into our mirror. Another great thing about these mirrors is, they are universal, so if you have several vehicles in your family, that you tow with, these might fit those as well. more
