Best Dodge Dakota Towing Mirrors

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.)

These are the best removable towing mirrors I've used, and I've gone through a few different kinds over the years. They look great on the truck, almost like stock towing mirrors at first glance. They have decent viewing area, low distortion & clear image, minimal vibration, and seem to stay aimed in position pretty well. They block the slightest amount of the stock mirrors at top and bottom on my model...not enough to matter. Also, ETRAILER shipped them to me FAST, and that was with economy shipping option!

I liked these mirrors and they were perfect for the job I was doing, pulling a trailer across country. The only problem I had was that I received two of the "inserts" for the same side rather than one for each side. I was able to make it work and, like I said, these worked well and looked like factory options, without looking "ugly". Wish I could get just the one needed insert and then it would be "5 stars". Here is a photo of the mirrors after a snowy road-trip night. You can see that they don't stick out too far but I found that they added just the right amount of angle to be able to see my trailer behind me. Nice product.

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.

These were exactly as advertised and a good value. They work well on my 2500 dodge ram diesel towing a 35 travel trailer Just in time for my trip to EAA Air venture at oshkosh. they let you see around the side of the trailer as the stock mirrors do not. A word on installation EASY. Great costumer service, I will do business with again. Thanks Steve M

After about a year of using these I am shocked on how good they held up, no bouncing around in the mirror, they stay tight on your mirrors, I have been traveling for about a year now going to vintage camper shows with my 1969 Yellowstone Camper and so glad I bought these, they go on easy and come off easy would definitely buy these again

The good: inexpensive; decent quality materials The bad: doesn't hold it position very well during extensive or high speed travel - you have to readjust at nearly every stop for gas on a trip. Conclusion: It is worth the money due to its fair price.

Purchased a pair for our 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee towing a nuCamp 400 from FL to AK and back. Three months and around 16k miles. Pros - other than an adjustment the second day, I never had to adjust the tension straps again. They were easy to mount and did not interfere with our mirrors folding inward. They weathered three months on the road without issue though I was beginning to worry about the straps becoming brittle. I noticed this once I removed them. Had I kept them, I would have used some silicon to rejuvenate the rubber. Cons - the only con is they shake. They shake to the point that sometimes I couldn't distinguish what exactly was behind me. I knew there was a vehicle, but the distortion from the vibration prohibited me from getting a clear view of exactly what was behind us. Impressions - they worked for our trip but I knew I would want something else for our next long trip, so we invested in a Furrion Reviewing Camera.

The mirrors attach per the instructions, but the part of the mirror housing that goes over the existing mirror does not fit securely to the housing of the existing mirror. I have nylon tie-wraps squeezing my extended mirror frames to make them catch the existing mirror housing to maintain the clamp effect for the tightening mechanism.

I purchased both right and left mirrors from etrailer.com, along with a hitch. I was surprised that the shipment arrived a day earlier than the the expedited arrival date I was quoted - for no additional fee! I installed the mirrors-using all included parts-and took the truck for a test drive. There was some vibration in the add-on mirrors, but not anything like what I was lead to expect. Maybe some of the other users didn't apply the sticky backed cloth, or didn't align the slot in the brace with the tab in the mirror case properly. I took the time to look at it closely and I'm very pleased, except for the minor vibration. I did screw the retainer screws all the way down to the bottom-with no cracking or splitting of anything-and the add-on mirrors seem to work just fine. Thank you etrailer for your service and CIPA for a well engineered, inexpensive set of mirrors.

Received on designated date. Box damaged but mirror ok. Thanks

Great service – shipped fast – good tracking – good price. Seem to fit very well with no vibration. They have to be better than the ones with the rubber straps I have been using. Will know more after first long trip.

The CTM3100 fits great on my 1995 Dodge 2500. I've attached a photo of the mirror attached to the driver side. The mirror extends about 4" - 5" past the factory mirror.

I used these for a 3 month trip across Canada and the U.S. and they worked great. The fit was a bit loose for the mirrors on my original 1996 Dodge Ram 2500 Turbo Diesel but being handy I put some extra self adhesive padding on the inside and built up the mirror arm with electrical tape to make sure the mirror clip would be snug. Those that aren't handy may get frustrated.

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.

Unable to tighten mirror clamps enough to eliminate mirror from shaking, preventing clear image while driving.

The mirrors were just what I needed and work well on my Toyota highlander.

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!

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.

I needed extended mirrors only when towing large RV behind my pickup truck. These worked as well as expected. Easy on and off. Store behind my front seat.

1997 Dodge Ram 2500…… Easy to install and they look good.

Best choice as it's removable Strong mirror overall. Fully adjustable mirror glass. Unit is removable, so you can have the stock look back when done towing...

Easy to install. Excellent fit. Good quality for the price. Have not yet made long trip, but vibration not an issue so far.

They are very easy to install and remove when parked for extended periods. Costumer service was very helpful with getting me the correct marrows.

Great product! I use them on all my trailers as well as my travel trailer. This is actually me second set...the first got destroyed by a hit n run and i could not live without them!

The company was fast and gave lots of updates for shipping. Once i received product my concerns were met. The straps are BARELY long enough to connect around my mirror. Once it is straped properly the tension on straps pulls them right out of the retaining clip. I ordered these because i have a 11 silverado just like what was in the product pictures. Save your money and get something else because theres no way these will make it down the highway they will barely stay on just sitting here. Kinda disappointed because i bout these for our first camping trip this weekend but these will not work. Seems like a good company just crappy product.

So-so construction and design. With one modification they're more than acceptable. The arms and straps will slip and loosen if installed on triangular or tapered housings. Mirrors that have backs nearly parallel to the mirror face, and have upper and lower mirror edges that are nearly parallel are not affected. Adding a peel and stick plastic wall hanger to a tapered housing will stop the strap from slipping and loosening. The ball and socket mount is good and tight, but the stud on the ball is loose in the arm. I think most of the jitter and vibration others report is from this sloppy clearance that the stud screw can't tighten enough. I'll be addressing that as well. A nice option for those of us that a) don't tow a majority of the time and don't want full time extended mirrors, and/or b) tow with multiple vehicles and prefer to have adjustability to fit our 'fleet'.

These mirrors seem to be well-made and are advertised as fitting all Ford vans from 1997 - 2002. I own a 1999 E350, and while the mirrors slide over the existing mirrors, they do not quite match the external shape of my mirrors - which are the stock factory mirrors . My mirrors are also a bit wider than these mirrors were designed for, so the hole for the attaching clamp does not extend far enough to the inside for the provided attachment clamp to fit through it. I was able to fabricate a clamp using a large picture hangar hook, a 3.5 inch 10-32 bolt, an aluminum sleeve cut at 45 degrees, a couple of washers and a nut, so I will be able to use the mirrors, but it has taken a bit of doing. Can't really find anything else other than complete factory mirror replacement, so for me, they should do the job.

The CTM2500 Fit my 2000 Ford E250 van power factory mirrors very nicely. They mounted easily and with the single screw knob clamped up tight. They also folded-in with the factory mirrors. I have not had the opportunity to "use" the mirrors while towing yet. The CTM2500 mirrors look real good mounted on my van (see photos).

The KS81600 (pair) snap-on mirrors mounted quickly and fit snug and beautifully to my 1999 Ford Expedition Eddie Bauer Series with contoured mirrors, and did not impede the existing Ford mirrors whatsoever. However, I have a problem with the focal distance of the passenger side KS81600 mirror that I received. See photos. It's magnification is quite different from the truck mirror, and shows only a small, magnified area of the distant background. In contrast, the KS81600 driver side mirror has a similar focal distance as the Ford driver side mirror, offering more of a long and broader view. I could live with the driver side view, but not the passenger side. I'm unsure if this difference is intentional or a product error/mis-match. I've contacted the eTrailer experts on the matter. Alternately, I also ordered a pair of the KS3891 "clip-on" mirrors, with the ratchet system. While I think this product offers a much broader view on both sides of the vehicle, they are not near as easy to put on as the KS81600, never quite go on in exactly the same position, and are not a perfect fit to my contoured Ford mirrors on the passenger side. In addition, the thicker clamps of the KS3891 make contact with the Ford mirror glass and impede my ability to fully adjust them. I will post a separate review of them. The KS81600 is a much cleaner, easier product to install and secure. Unfortunately, the focal distance issue is a deal killer for me, and I'll probably keep the KS3891 which provide a broader view on both sides of my rig.

I have a 2002 f150 Lariat supercrew with the turn signals on the mirrors and these fit perfectly over them with plenty of room to still adjust the mirror. I tow a 19ft travel trailer and can now see the traffic behind me, no more hoping there is no one coming up on me as I change lanes, and the mirrors barely vibrate so you can see very clearly in them. They fit nice and snug on the truck mirror so there is no worry about them moving around or falling off. The only negative for me is the bottom clip scrapes up the truck mirror a bit every time I take them on or off, so be carefull. Overall very happy with them.

These mirrors are an inexpensive alternative to full replacement mirrors. Easy installation and great directions make a perfect fit. They were delivered fast and service was friendly. I will definitely order from etrailer again. Thanks!!!

Mirrors fit very well right over stock mirrors and look very nice. Etrailer kept me informed thru out entire order. Very happy with their service. I will order from them again.

I bought both sides for my 2011 silverado and they look really good they look like they are factory mirrors install very quickly about 1 minute a side and they still allow the mirror to fold in if need be and they don't hit the side of the truck when folded in they fit my needs just fine the only complaint I have is the mirror itself could be bigger its about 1/3 the size of my factory mirror you have a decent blind spot when using them you just have to check yourself and its not a problem other than that they fit my needs well and come on and off quickly so they work really well if you don't tow 247 but it you tow very often like for a living I would recommend the full replacement ones cause they have less blindspot but if you tow every now and then they will suit your needs just fine I would recommend this product it you tow every now and then

The slip-on mirrors that I ordered fit snugly over the existing mirrors. As a Canadian, I was a bit anxious about ordering the mirrors from an American company in case they didn't fit, however your videos and sizing according to the vehicle year, and model made it reassuring that the product would work. I'm really happy with the mirrors, and look forward to using them for many years to come.
