CIPA Custom Towing Mirrors - Slip On - Driver Side and Passenger Side
They are fine for the price but hard to adjust the mirror itself after installation. I’ll be installing the bigger factory trailer mirrors pretty soon.
They appear to be as advertised, well made and should be easy to install. That may change once the rain stops and I am able to actually install them and then use them during the towing operation of our trailer. But i feel pretty confident they will be very helpful.

K-Source Custom Extendable Towing Mirrors - Manual - Textured Black - Pair
I bought tow mirrors a year ago from etrailer.com and I couldn't ask for more they have held up very well and am pleased to recommend them.
From purchase to product installation And fit, this product and company is top notch. Great communication throughout and Customer Service is amazing as well. Please note: you DO NOT have to remove door panels to install the manual mirror on the 2500 HD. Pull the top corners of the door panel and remove the small push screw in the upper trim cover on both sides. Pull the upper trim piece off and install the new mirror. Be sure to lip the trim as you go during reinstallation of the trim...then press into place and snap the top corners of the door panel in. This procedure will take about 15 minutes. Thanks Etrailer!

K-Source Custom Extendable Towing Mirrors - Electric/Heat w LED Signal - Textured Black - Pair
Installed successfully on 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD, replacing factory mirrors that were power adjustable and heated - no turn signal. Motorized mirror adjustments worked fine. Haven't tested heated mirror yet. Since I did not previously have turn signals in my mirrors, the turn signals did not work on these as expected. May look into a way to make them work later, but no big deal. One improvement that could be made on these mirrors. The manufacturer is aware that the factory mirrors use 3 bolts, and these use 4. It would be nice if they would have included a nut for the 4th bolt, so I wouldn't have had to go search for one. One good thing, on my truck the hole was already there for the 4th bolt, so I didn't have to drill. Taking a trip tomorrow, so will see how they perform on the road. So far as what I have seen, I am happy with this purchase. I have used etrailer in the past and have always been happy with the products they offer.
As advertised fit was very good, worked as should would recommend these mirrors, will be used to see pulling a camper, and etrailer to purchase from. 2014 Silverado 1500 LTZ four door crew cab standard bed.

K-Source Custom Extendable Towing Mirrors - Electric/Heat - Textured Black - Pair
After recently purchasing a travel trailer my wife and I knew we needed to upgrade our stock truck mirrors to trailering mirrors. I searched many websites for the right set of mirrors. Etrailer.com hit the mark. Not only did they have the extendable mirrors we were seeking, they also had a price within our budget. These mirrors come as a set. They filled my order promptly and the package arrived in a couple of days. The installation for both mirrors took only 2 hours. They function well and look great!
It took me about 2 1/2 hours to install. The biggest problem was disconnecting the electrical connection on the first one. I did notice that when drilling the holes, iron filings were falling down by where electrical connection so I stuck a rag down there to prevent them from getting in the connection and messing it up. Putting on the second one took less than a 1/2 hour after I knew what I was doing. The video was a tremendous help. Written instructions would have been worthless to me. Extremely satisfied with how they turned out and look.

K-Source Snap & Zap Custom Towing Mirrors - Snap On - Driver and Passenger Side
Simply installed and removed, these mirrors make all the difference when towing our 33’ trailer. They easily adjust to allow the best views of both the trailer and surrounding traffic. I highly recommend this product.
These mirrors are GREAT!! Exactly what I've been looking for. The fit, adjustability, look are awesome!! They look like they are factory installed. We tow a travel trailer (now with a 2011 Suburban) and vision from the passenger side has always been a problem. I have tried others from different sources on different tow vehicles: there is no comparison and they are cheaper too!! I am so glad I found etrailer.com. Just plug in your info and the solution to your problem is found!

K-Source Universal Towing Mirror - Clip On - Convex Mirror - Qty 1
After years of replacing mirrors from other sources I purchased a pair of these. There fantastic, plenty of adjustments. Got covid on vacation, really sick and did not properly install mirror. Not broken but scratched badly from asphalt at 55 mph. Purchased a replacement, scratched one is my spare.
These mirrors are good, but not great. I bought these because nothing else fits my 2004 Ford Expedition. They allow me to see around my trailer much better than the factory mirrors, but the have a slight vibration driving down the road. They also make a very noticeable noise from the wind going between the factory mirror and this product. Finally, one of the straps came off when I tightened it a bit too much, but didn't break. The picture below was done in humor (I took my trailer through a drive through, thought it was really funny, and had to take a picture. The picture is a good shot of the mirrors.)

K-Source Custom Extendable Towing Mirrors - Manual - Textured Black - Pair
These mirrors are great quality very close to OEM . The installation went very well. I did take the door panel off to make it easier to get to the two lower fasteners, just to make sure I didn't loose the nuts inside door. There was very little vibration in the mirrors, I was a little worried about that by reading previous reviews. The mirrors held their positions, folded nicely when parked in tight spots. Everything said this is a great quality product
Great customer service! Free and fast shipping. The glass on the mirrors shake when your on the highway. I don't know of it's all towing mirrors or just these. Easy to install an fit perfect. Overall I'm happy with the product. Thanks e trailer for the great customer service.

CIPA Universal Fit Towing Mirror - Clamp On - Adjustable Length - Steel
Mirrors work exactly as intended, greatly improving rear vision when towing our pontoon behind our 2014 Tacoma. Store nicely in the compartment under the rear seat.
Excellent product. Easy to put on. Took them off, put them in my camper storage. Next trip out, when I put them on, I did not even need to adjust them! The mirrors are slight contour and slight magnification, which makes them easy to see. There is virtually NO vibration during travel. (I have had others that shimmied so bad you could not see a thing.) I flip my driver side mirror in frequently to check my mail box, so it is not very stiff. So I ran a small bungee from the clamp to the grill under my hood. Did this for both sides. My driver side flipped in when traveling at interstate speeds, so I put a second bungee on it. Fixed the problem. Allen bolts at top of clamp are rusting after 2nd use. All in all though, I am very pleased with this product and it is well worth the money spent. It is the only product I could find to properly fit my 2011 Toyota Tacoma, because it clamps on the mirror frame and does not rest on my truck mirrors. Great Product!

K-Source Universal Dual Lens Towing Mirrors - Clip On - Pair
These worked great on my wife's Yukon. Installation instructions were clear and direct. They held up very well traveling 75 mph down the interstate; No jostling around or coming loose. I loved the additional two mirrors. Having the three total different angles while pulling a trailer was extremely helpful. Would highly recommend this setup.
ordering was easy. the product was delivered quickly and without damage. I have a 2023 Colorado Z71 and was concerned about how the towing mirrors were going to attach to the tapered factory mirrors. the fit is superb. no movement during use so far.. I would recommend these to a friend.

Longview Custom Towing Mirrors - Slip On - Driver and Passenger Side
Delivery was quick. The mirrors slipped on with ease and fit well over the existing mirrors and looked almost factory attached. Then came the task for securing the attachments to the vehicle. While the concept is easy someone forgot to check deminsions of the parts and were to short to work on my vehicle. I contacted etrailer by chat and asked if there were alternatives for securing the mirrors and unfortunately there weren't any. Then came my decision to use heavy duty electrical looped through the hole the sent hardware was to be inserted through. Unless you look closely they are not easily seen. When I want to remove the mirrors I simply snip the cable tie on each mirror and ues new ones the next time I need to use the mirrors. While my "fix" works they only 3 star because to the attachment hardware.
The extensions fit the mirror but the hardware to hold them on won’t work. I’ll have to make hardware for them to work properly.

K-Source Custom Extendable Towing Mirror - Electric/Heat - Textured Black - Passenger Side
Perfect fit. George was very professional and helped me pick the right mirrors for my Chevrolet Silverado. I tow a fifth wheel and no vibration like the clip on mirrors. very satisfied with your outstanding service. Will continue to do buisness with etrailer. Next purchase will be airbag system.
I installed them on my 2018 Silverado. The fit is good and they look like they came with the truck. Not extended the outside edges of the mirrors are 8'-2" and extended they're 8'-10". They enable me to see around and past my enclosed 8'-4" wide trailer. If you've never been inside a door panel before I'd suggest watching a couple of videos prior to starting. I had to drill one hole in the door (original had 3 bolts this has a fourth stud). I'd have given them a 5 star except the glass shakes slightly when they're fully extended and I hope that doesn't get worse.

K-Source Custom Extendable Towing Mirror - Electric/Heat w LED Signal - Textured Black - Passenger
I originally ordered these mirrors in 2019 for my truck….4 years later I am having to replace now both of them. I replaced the passenger side in august, thought that it was just a bad mirror….The drivers side is now failing as well. For the price I expected them to last longer than 4 years on a truck that is garaged nightly and really only used for towing. The truck does not go off-road, so there is no abuse or reason both mirrors should have failed. Had I known I was going to have to replace both…I would’ve gone with a different product.
These are great mirrors when I'm towing the trailer. Wish they would slide in and out a little easier but I can deal with it.

K-Source Custom Extendable Towing Mirror - Electric/Heat w LED Signal - Textured Black - Driver
Since this is the second one in 4 years-1 star…. Because I had to replace the passenger side a couple months ago- thought it was a fluke- now the driver side failed…. On a garaged truck- used primarily for towing and adult owned. Should’ve bought OEM for the same price at this point
Purchased about a year ago. Installed with no issues. No issues since install. Can't tell difference between new mirror and OEM.

K-Source Universal Towing Mirrors - Clip On - Convex Mirror - Qty 2
After reading lots of reviews on several mirrors, I decided to buy the K-Source Universal Towing Mirrors. Oh how I wish my truck could use the ones that slip over the existing mirrors! I was prepared for a fight, based on reviews, and boy did I get one! I truly needed a third hand when figuring out how to attach these. I was bound and determined that I could do this on my own. No mirrors were going to defeat me! I did ask my husband to come look at them. He started to help but I shewed him away. After a lot of words that don’t normally come out of my mouth and a few tears, the first one was on! Then I had to go do it again in the other side! I’m pretty sure the neighbors heard me yelling. But I persisted! Lo and behold, this 67 year old Grammy did it! It was clear they would not stay on by themselves, so I grabbed a couple of bungee cords and wrapped them around the housing and they aren’t going anywhere. I have left them on my truck. No way I’m going thru that every time we return from camping. I will take them off at the end of camping season. Delivery was really fast. I was disappointed that one box was brand new and the other was smashed and taped, an obvious return. I would have been very unhappy if there was a piece missing or if something was wrong since this was my first purchase with etrailer. Overall, the mirrors work, they do not shake and I find I don’t use the truck mirrors now. Very happy with my purchase.
Fitted on 2024 Toyota Tundra SR5 CrewMax Cab w/ Stock Mirrors No vibration issues with either mirror. Turned left and right side clip on mirrors vertical so the did not overlap truck mirrors. Right side no problem with attachment and was able to adjust truck mirror. Could also see father back along right side of a 24’ travel trailer than just looking in truck mirror. Don’t expect to see behind on right side any vehicles tucked up close. Left side mirror attachment had to be modified so I could adjust truck mirror without interfering with clip on mirror lower L “hooks”. I put a rubber blocks under the lower L hooks so they were low enough to get under truck mirror glass yet still clamp to truck mirror housing. A picture tells the story. 7,000 km/4,200 miles later and neither mirror has loosened or moved. No vibration or distortion. Yes, I ran 2 zip ties as safety “chains” from the back straps to truck mirror arm just in case, they’re barely snug. I recommend these.

CIPA Custom Towing Mirrors - Slip On - Driver Side and Passenger Side
I guess you get what you pay for. They were easy to install on my Tahoe. The driver side works well as I can see behind my Travel trailer. The passenger side just doesn't work for me. Its a flat mirror (Not convex) so field of view is very limited, I just cant find the right position for it. I also find it a bit confusing as there are now 4 different mirrors to focus on. I think the ultimate solution are the larger telescoping units. But of course they cost more and installation is more involved. I don't trailer that much so I can live with these. Oh, one little annoying thing is they whistle when the window is down(Quiet when the windows are up). I think its the sharp edge. On the plus side removal is quick so when you don't need them they come off easily when not needed.
One of the best products I’ve bought in a long time. Fit perfect and was exactly as described!

CIPA Universal Towing Mirrors - Clamp On - Qty 2
So far, so good. I received the CIPA mirrors today and immediately installed them. Installation instructions are straight forward. I took a test drive of about 15 miles; there was no noticeable shake or rattle and the mounts did not loosen. As with factory curbside mirrors, objects are closer than they appear with the CIPA mirrors, too. Our first trip towing is a couple weeks from now. I will update my review after the trip.
The view is excellent. The mirrors do not vibrate. In speeds over 50mph, the tube would turn inside the clamps and the mirrors would turn upward, making them useless. Solution: I cut off a finger from a nitrile rubber glove and pushed it over the tube. Now the mirrors stay put.

Right now I'm about 16, 20 feet behind our truck and as I start stepping over it's not a wonder to see that we're staying in that factory mirror. It's when we get over to this point where we really need that extra field of view when we're maneuvering that we start to lose it and that's where our towing mirror's really going to take over. As you can see it extends our field of view way out here to where we can see the corners of trailer, anything around us, and really help us navigate. Here's what the mirrors are going to look like installed on the vehicle.

Installation Guide for the CIPA Custom Towing Mirrors on a 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 2500
Today on our 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 2500, we're going to install the CIPA custom towing mirrors, part number CM10950. This set of custom mirrors will fit both the driver and passenger side. The CIPA mirrors are a durable mirror that slides over the manufacturer's mirror and extends your line of sight when you're towing. With a simple tool free installation, it's easy to install and also remove when you're not using them. Their nice aerodynamic shape help prevent vibration and wind noise, yet it's nice and sturdy and locked on to the mirror. It's easy to see even when traveling at highway speeds.
Beginner’s Guide to Installing the Longview Custom Towing Mirrors on a 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 2500
Today, on our 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 2500, we'll be installing a Longview custom towing mirror, part number LVT-1800. This is a set of custom towing mirrors that will slip on over your manufacturer equipment mirrors. Standing at the back of the truck, viewing the reflection from the mirror, through the manufacturer's mirror seeing behind the vehicle is easy. However, if we have a longer towing product or wider, using our long view mirror, much easier to see the product so we can safely navigate the road. Let's go ahead and take a look at the passenger side, which we've already installed. As you can see, the mirror slips on, gripping the outer edge of the original mirror but won't hinder the operation, whether manual or power of the manufacturer's mirror. Here, at our extension, we have a manual mirror that we can move up, down, in, or out as necessary to view our towing product. Securing our mirror here to the manufacturer's mirror, we have the hand knob on the back side that holds the hook that grips the front edge, therefore preventing the mirror from coming off, holding it nice and tightly so it won't shift and move around on bumpy roads or highway speeds. Additionally, since we're adding width to our vehicle, it won't interfere with being able to fold it in for those tight parking situations. Now, let's go ahead and show you how to install it on the driver's side.
