They are ok for what they are. Easy to install and remove. They do not show as much as I thought but enough since I dont have factory tow mirrors.

Nothing fancy. I was hoping for something a little bigger in the way of a mirror



by:

I ordered these mirrors for my car in Oct 2021 at which time the website indicated they would fit my car. I only need them for towing during the summer so did not even open the boxes until this week, April 2022. Imagine my surprise to find out that the mirrors do NOT fit my car. I immediately sent an e-mail requesting process to return and exchange for mirrors that would fit. Today I received a response stating sorry they don't fit but our returns policy is 60 days and I was outside of that time. I should try selling them locally! I could understand if the mirrors were no longer carried by etrailer but they are still in stock. And I'm not asking for a refund but an exchange. Very disappointed in this company!



by:

Very disappointed by how it was shipped, esp by a so keen on good marketing. Item was shipped in its original manufacturer box with just a mailing sticker put on it. It arrived totally ripped, barely sealed enough to hold the contents and even the factory packing ripped and a mess. It should have been put in an outer shipping box.like previous order I received from you. I have rescinded my recommendation to my brother in law to buy wheels and tires from you for his camper. I don’t know how the mirror survived not being broken but it wasn’t. However, I now don’t have a box to store it in when not in use.

Charles

Not sure if my recent, year later review went through. While I wasn’t happy with how it was shipped in only the original manufacture’s box-see my original review the mirror work and look great and attach securely and easily to my heavy duty Ram’s standard mirrors. Can’t speak to other truck brands, but I love them. 5+ stars.



by:

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!

Larry D.

5/21/2021

Still love them and hard to tow without them!



by:

Mirrors look nice, but both were incomplete. The packages had been opened before being shipped and some small parts removed. I immediately contacted etrailer and asked them to send the small parts (neoprene rubber strips). Etrailer's response was to send me this survey. the first less than ideal interaction with etrailer in dealing with them for about 5 years.

2021 GMC Sierra 1500

The product in theory works well. But, on an RV trip I found the mirror laying on the ground one morning after it fell off the product. Clearly the adhesive was not very good. The mirror luckily broke in half and I was able to get it back in place to complete my trip. I then ordered a replacement part for my GMC Sierra and was sent a replacement driver side mirror for a Dodge Ram (and yes, I did order a part for a GMC.) The customer service rep was very helpful. Ended up ordering a part off of [online vendor] since I could could only get it 3+ weeks with etrailer vs 2 days with [online vendor].

2020 Ram 1500 Classic

From start to finish this was a great buying experience! Website was easy to use, my product showed up in a couple days, they fit perfect on my mirrors. Don’t be deterred if the box shows a different year than what you asked for, it still might fit because the model hasn’t changed. I have a 2020 RAM 1500 Classic, parts came in for earlier model. Still fit because RAM hasn’t changed the size of the mirrors. Excellent quality and a fair price. Definitely sturdier than the strap on mirrors you see elsewhere online. Will keep this store in my favs for future needs.



by:

Ordering from etrailer was exactly what I was hoping for, fast courteous service. The mirror was exactly what I wanted. Polite, helpful. I will definitely shop here again.



by:
2011 Ford Expedition

I'm not completely disappointed but unsure. When ordered, specific to 2011-2017 Expedition, this came up as fitting. When box arrived, I was shocked to see a label on box saying fits Ram Pick-up trucks! I went to CIPA website immediately for their fitment chart, thinking the wrong part was sent. Turns out CIPA doesn't make a specific mirror to mount on my vehicle. They do mount and I can "rig" them to work, but there are gaps, loose areas, etc. At $50 for (1) mirror at driver's side that is a bit much seeing as they fit perfectly on those RAM truck mirrors. etrailer website is deceiving customers in saying these mirrors fit my vehicle. Here again, if I paid $30 okay, but I paid $50 total for a mismatch, even supported by manufacturer. I hate sending things back and barely ever do, but this stinks and I have bought tons of stuff from etrailer.com.

These do show that they are a confirmed fit for your 2014 Ram 2500, however, they are only a fit for the specific shape of mirror that is in the product details above.



by:
2012 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

got the mirrors and tried the on our 2012 Dodge 1500 truck and they fit well there is a litle play on the outside ends up and down, don't know where or not this will effect the end use with vibration. if so i am going to put a little neoprem in and this should stop the vibration. the only reason i am not giving them an excellent is i won't have them on the truck in use for a couple of weeks at least.

Mirrors wont stay on existing mirror,the twist lock mechanism doesn't hold the mirror on like it says it does.

Thank you for your review. These are meant to fit many different vehicles therefore they will not be tight fitting. If you want it to wiggle less, you can use foam tape to secure it.

You sent the wrong ones I ordered for a Chevy Silverado you sent a dodge. Also they were both driver side!

I apologize for the discrepancy. Please reply back to the customer service representatives email so that we can sort this out.



by:
DodgeRam Pickup

Overall these are nice mirrors and fit well on my Ram 1500.
I am only rating two stars because the mounting screws and threads in the mirrors are not compatible and the lead threads on the screws galled during first install. This will require me to rethread the screws and holes before using the mirrors. It appears that the non threaded end of the screw is too large and damaged the threads in the mirror. I may even need to change to a metal screw to make them work.



by:

Trailer mirrors were delivered prompt and in great shape. Packaging was exceptional. They fit and look great. I am a very happy customer. Thank you.



by:

Using this website's "select year, make model" for my 2017 Toyota Tacoma, I ordered and received it. Much to my chagrin, it didn't fit in any form or fashion. There is no return sticky in the box so now I have to waste my time (and theirs') trying to get my money back.



by:

I accidentally ordered the wrong thing! Tim in Customer Service was very helpful in helping me identify what I should have ordered and promptly sent me the return authorization information and instructions to return the purchase I had mistakenly ordered.
Thank you

Today getting an email stating my item was delivered. But I’m not there. Please recall the order and ship to the address I wrote the day of the purchase. In the alternative, send another email and I will send m address.

  • Availability of Towing Mirror for 2006 Ford Explorer Limited
    We do have a universal towing mirror option that would work great on your Explorer. The K-Source Clip On Towing Mirror, part # KS3891 would work great for you. The mirror clips to your factory mirror, using two ratcheting rubber straps. The straps make for an extremely secure, almost vibration free-fit. As you can see by looking over the reviews, the # KS3891 is very highly rated by our customers. Unfortunately, none of our mirror vendors manufacturer a custom slip-on mirror that would...

  • Slip On Towing Mirror Fit for 2000 Dodge Ram 3500 Truck
    We might offer a slip on mirror fit for your truck, but the CIPA # CM11401 is a fit for certain 2009-2018 Ram 1500 and 2500 Ram trucks, and wouldn't be a fit for the 2000 Ram 3500. If your 2000 Dodge Ram 3500 is a base model, and the factory mirrors look like what's shown in the provided photo the CIPA # CM10500 would be a fit.

  • Recommended Towing Mirrors For A 2022 BMW X3
    There currently are no confirmed fits for a 2022 BMW X3 so you would have to use universal-fit towing mirrors like the K-Source Universal Towing Mirrors # KS69ZR. These mirrors clip on to the front of the mirror and have adjustable straps to tighten down for a snug fit. They fit most mirrors 4-1/2" to 11-1/2" tall.

  • Is There A Custom Fit Towing Mirror For My 2020 Ford Expedition?
    Both CIPA mirrors # CM11401 and # CM11402 are not a custom fit for your 2020 Ford Expedition. There is no custom fit mirror for your vehicle but there are some good options when it comes to universal towing mirrors like the K-Source Mirror # KS3891-2. I've test fit these mirrors on a 2018 Ford Expedition and they worked great! They will work just as well on your 2020 model. I've included that video too so check it out to see how they install!

  • Slide On Mirrors for 2017 / 2018 Chevrolet Colorado
    The CIPA # CM11401 Slip-On mirror that you referenced is for a RAM truck. I wish someone made slip-on mirrors for the Colorado because I would buy them for mine! The only option available is "universal fit" mirrors. I have been using the CIPA 7070-2 mirrors for my Colorado. They are indispensable for passing cars and backing into spots. Since the Colorado mirror bodies have a taper to them I criss cross the rubber straps for a better grip.

  • Slip On Towing Mirrors for 2019 Chevy Silverado 1500 High Country
    2019 was a split model year for the Silverado half ton pickup. The 20191500 Silverado LD is a carryover from the previous model year, and is identical to the 2018 Silverado 1500. What's referred to as the 2019 Silverado 1500 is a new body style. The CIPA # CM11401 fits the 2009-2018 Ram 1500 and 2500, and wouldn't fit your Silverado. The mirror companies don't do an excellent job of breaking down fits as far as sub-models like the High Country goes, but we do have installation videos for...

  • RV Towing Mirrors For 2013 Toyota Tacoma TRD
    The CIPA Custom Tow Mirrors are made to specifically fit a particular year/make/ model truck. Unfortunately the # CM11401, and CM11402, are not matches for your Toyota. There is not a custom fitted mirror extension for your truck. The choices were for "Universal Fit" mirrors with rubber tie-down straps. Of those, I would recommend the CIPA # 7070-2 mirrors. I have used these on our Chevy Colorado for about 30 trips without problems.

  • Will The CIPA Custom Mirror # CM11401 Fit a 2023 Subaru Ascent?

The CIPA Custom Mirror # CM11401 you found is for a Ram truck and there currently are no custom fit towing mirrors for your Ascent. The CIPA Universal Towing Mirrors # 7070-2 use a simple strap system with adjustable arms to conform to your mirrors.
