These universal-fit towing mirrors expand your field of vision so you can better see your trailer or anything else that is behind you. The ratcheting strap system creates a snug fit to reduce vibration. The mirrors can be installed on both the driver's-side and passenger's-side mirrors on most vehicles.
The towing mirrors can be easily installed and removed. No tools are necessary. The hook on the nylon strap will grab the outer edge of your factory mirror housing. The cushioned feet can be adjusted to fit your factory mirror housing. Simply twist the hand knob on the end of the mirror to tighten the nylon strap and secure each mirror to your factory mirrors.

Universal-fit towing mirrors strap onto your factory mirrors to extend your lines of sight by 5". Durable ABS plastic mirrors have an aerodynamic shape and snug fit to reduce vibration and wind noise. Simple, tool-free installation and removal.The mirrors themselves I'd give 4-5 stars as they were easy to install and only took about 5 minutes per side to get them adjusted correctly. One of the mirrors was clearly a mirror that had been used by a customer and then returned. Neither the customer nor etrailer cared enough to fully check the product as there were bug guts on the outside of the housing.
I mounted these mirrors on 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Initial installation was a snap. After a trip or two I found that due to the curvature of the Jeep’s mirror housing, the CIPA mirrors were coming loose, sliding outward. I remedied this problem with a cable tie, holding the CIPA strap to the Jeep mirror’s inner edge. Steady cruising ever since .
Excellent product with timely delivery. I have purchased many products from etrailer and have never been disappointed. Great selection of products and I appreciate the videos provided to help make an informed decision. The mirrors are of high quality and will greatly improve trailer towing visibility.
These mirrors don't fit too well on the back of mirrors on a 2022 f150 not really a flat surface on the back of the truck mirrors
Not happy with them. 1/3 of rubber pads to protect mirror have fallen off in one use. I cannot get passenger mirror to stay in place no matter what I do. It usually ends up pointing at the ground within two miles. I've tightened it so much the clamp on the end of the strap popped off and flew 20 feet away. Would not recommend for a Honda Pilot.
The written directions for attaching the mirrors were poor at best. The video for attaching the mirrors on the etrailer site was excellent. Despite this, I only had success with the drivers side mirror. The passengers side mirror clips interfered with the automatic backup mirror adjustment. Changing type of clip attachment didn't matter. In general, these mirrors do not work well on the Honda Passport.
Mirrors arrived promptly. Appear as advertised. Excellent quality.
Due to shape of mirror housing on my 2021 Jeep Wrangler Ultimate Sport diesel, unable to attach securely. After telephoning, received return shipping label, discovered the cost. Seems it costs me $X.XX upon purchase, but $XX.00 to return. Was told the reason was that it was "Inbound". Make sure your purchase is exact to avoid return shipping charges.
The support pads on the towing mirrors that rest against the truck mirror fall off every time I use the mirrors.
The “Universal Fit” doesn’t come close to fitting the vehicle. When I retrieve the mirrors from my daughter whom I purchased them for, back they go!
The mirrors do not fit 2021 F150 with the 360 camera package. I am requesting a return authorization and will continue my hunt for towing mirrors that will fit my new truck. Worst case as a retired engineer I will make them myself.
returned because they did not fir. Ordered a different type and they have worked excellent
The mirrors will not stay in place, they slide down. Also the tightening knobs are too slick, cannot get a good grip on them. I know my advanced age has a lot to do with it!
Upon receiving my universal mirrors I found that one mirror was minus the extra clips and pads. The other mirror had the pads already attached and had bug splatters and minor abrasions. It was obvious that both mirrors had been opened and one had definitely been used. I have installed the mirrors and they appear to be okay, but I did pay for new mirrors not used!
Unfortunately, I feel this is a "Mickey Mouse" solution to the problem of not having mirrors that extend on my new 2021 Ford F150 when I'm towing my travel trailer... I'll let you know what I really think about these mirrors after I get to use them. As far as "etrailer" is concerned they got the product I wanted to me in a timely fashion and were concerned about my feedback...
They have great construction, very easy to install. Only reason they don't get 5 stars from me is the size of Mirrors. Just a little small for my taste.
A little tricky to install. The rubber pads come loose and there tends to be a whistle.
As per my previous experiences with etrailer, I received fast and dependable service. The mirrors look to be very sturdy and do not block the mirrors they are attached to. The CIPA mirrors look like they should work well with my 2018 Tacoma. I had to modify the mounting application slightly. The kit with additional grasping hooks and the instructions failed to show how to use those hooks and neither did the videos. Because the tacoma mirror housing leaves little room for the CIPA hooks that came attached to the CIPA mirrors, I reversed them and they now seem to be secure. There was no way the original set up would work trying to grasp the Tacoma mirrors.
So I am headed out tonight without the trailer to see how they work. Looking forward to the increased visibility.
Hard to mount. Made a horrible whistling sound
I am well pleased wit the towing mirrors, they are easy to put on and fit good. Service from etrailer both times I have ordered from them has been great.
Useless, poor fit, poor visibility - replaced with other mirrors. Not recommended
Hope to use them soon
The mirrors are easy to put on your vehicle and provide adequate use. The adjustment of the mirrors is done by hand, which makes it hard to adjust if you are alone and harder with a passenger. I wish they could make it electronically controlled. Overall, good product and still using them now.
THE INSTRUCTONS ARE NOT VERY CLEAR AS TO HOW TO INSTALL. THERE IS ALMOST NONE.
I only used the universals twice and then bought a pickup equipped with towing mirrors. The CIPAs were ok for the price.
