I've waited a year to ensure I had adequate experience with my mirrors. I purchased the CIPA Universal Clip-On for my Hyundai Santa Fe. Takes less than a minute to install. Angling the mirrors for optimal position was straight forward too. Straps are decently heavy duty. Help my towing visibility be reducing my blind spots. I felt mu saver. Some minor mirror vibration but never enough to be an annoyance. I've done two long trips. I hve travel from NC to the West coast and also to NY finger lakes. Worked well.
The mirrors vibrate a little but don't come off at highway speed.
They are a little confusing at times but do help in backing the boat trailer down to the ramp. I had to do a little remodeling because the clamps interfered with the remote adjustment of the truck mirrors. The Toyota Tacoma mirrors are too small for the double cab, long bed truck.
These are a great, compact set of towing mirrors. They provide a clear view down both sides of the trail trailer. Their installation and removal literally take less than 5 seconds per mirror. I highly recommend this product.
VWagner - 06/19/2022After using the mirrors a few times, we had the seat/mirror memory in the car fixed from an earlier malfunction, and thereafter, the towing mirror mounts interfered with the regular mirror setting and would cause the mirror motor to vibrate as it continually tried to adjust the regular mirror to the set positions. A complete failure. Sorry about that!
Sierra K - 06/30/2022Really helps to see around the boat and next lane of traffic.. Makes lane changing much easier. Easy to put on and adjust.
Passenger side mirror has insufficient field of view. I think that a convex mirror be supplied for use on the passenger side. This will make it easier to align and provide a better view of the side of the trailer. A flat mirror has a very small field of view which is unsafe.
Great visibility with these on our Dodge Durango when we are towing our 1954 Vintage Airstream Trailer. The great thing is they easily pop on and off and we did;t have to change out our regular mirrors.
I purchased the towing mirrors for my 2017 4Runner. They are perfect and at a great price!!
I also purchased the Curtis TriFlex break controller and it took under 15 minutes to install. Another great deal. I haven’t had the opportunity to test it yet but from what I read here, I have no concerns.
Order to delivery was less than a week. Very happy!!!
Works good in a pinch. There are no tow mirrors made specifically for our vehicle. These worked great on our 6 hr drive with high winds. The flat rubber straps help keep the mirrors in place. Seems like a better design than the clap down. Very pleased with this solution.
These mirrors are easy to install but we stopped using them after a bit because they ended up not really staying adjusted where we wanted them.
They shake/vibrate a lot while driving which is distracting and makes it hard to see and they also get pushed around by the wind or driving forces so after spending some time adjusting them for your vehicle/trailer, they will go out of adjustment after 10-15 minutes on the interstate.
We took them on a trip up the east coast but stopped trying to use them after awhile as they required constant readjustment.
Wouldn't recommend them.
The mirrors attach fine but could stick out further for towing 8 foot wide trailers.
Jenny N - 05/26/2022These mirrors on our Jeep Grand Cherokee added just enough vision for improved highway driving and backing of our trailer. Easy to take on and off. Highly recommend.
They work as intended. I only use them when pulling my enclosed trailer and they improve my field of view from behind quite a bit. I would recommend to friends and family.
They have been functional for us. A little tricky to attach to our Nissan Pathfinder , but probably has a lot to do with the shape of the mirrors. Otherwise, they got the job done for us.
we've owned these mirrors for one year and they work very well on our 2016 Toyota Tacoma. We've not had any problems with them.
These were perfect and super easy to install and they alleviated the problem of not being able to see around the camper
Functional. Not gonna win any beauty contests, but they work for seeing behind you.
Mirrors have function excellently - provide good coverage while towing and backing up.
Does not work on 2020 Ford Explorer. This is because of the rounded and smaller mirror
Thomas M - 01/26/2022The mirrors vibrate horribly. I had got them for use with my 24' car hauler so I could see blind spots. I never used them again after the first use. In town, slow speeds (30mph) they are fine. The moment you ge tup to speed on a highway they can't handle the wind. Night time, I ended up taking them off becuase I could not tell where vehichles were next to me.
Worked really well for our truck, stayed in place and didn’t vibrate much. Very happy with our purchase.
The mirrors work quite well. The only reason I gave them a 4 star rating is that they do not come with a safety tether in case the rubber mount slips and the mirror falls off. I made a simple tether with paracord, looping it over the vehicle mirror and tying it to the towing mirror. Saved the mirror on passenger side twice. After playing a lot more with the mount I found a more secure way and the mirrors have stayed put. (but I am keeping the tether anyway)
They hang on existing mirrors well even at 75mph
These did the job at a very good value. Not having used clip ons before I wanted to try them out at a low price point and they delivered. I still use them although I lost one of the clips early but was able to jerry rig it to work. I would recommend them for a entry level need. I will probably get larger, more sturdy ones next time now that I know how well clips ons work.
Shipping was much faster than expected! High quality items
