Extension Mirrors
What brands and types of extension mirrors are you using for towing?

I am using CIPA mirrors on my 2500HD GMC. They snap on to the existing mirrors. You can check these out. https://www.safetowingstore.com/Produ...ductCode=70007

I have looked extensively for mirrors made to fit the Tacoma and so far I have had no luck. The manufacturers don't appear to make anything for imports. I have the mirrors that mount to the truck's mirrors with rubber straps. They are okay but they need to stick out a bit further to see around the Hi-Lo. I wish that telescoping mirrors would be made for the Tacoma and would be offered as part of the towing package.

I hear ya.I just called my local RV dealer and he said, as far as he knew, there were none available. Guess that I'll just have to stick with my strap ons that I currently have. Maybe,I'll try to modify them a little to stick out a little further.

I hope we are still discussing mirrors? :confused:

I have a 2006 toyota tacoma, right now I'm using strap-on mirrors. I'm very unhappy with them, I wish there was something better on the U.S. market!
I found some! I seached caravan (R.V. in Europe) mirrors. Check out ; ORAmirror.com model : Rossa (with a support arm so they don't vibrate in the wind). They are a bit pricey, but I guest you get what you pay for. I wanted to get some opinions before I fork out that much money. Anyone see them? |
Could you check that website address and re-post it? I came up with something all together different from mirrors. Thanks!

I am seriously thinking of ordering a pair of CIPA 11960 Premium Universal Towing Mirrors for my Nissan Frontier, they are available from Amazon for $25.00 each with free shipping Amazon.com. Are any of you familiar with these in actual use?

I moved to a model made by CIPA that slides over the existing mirror. They wern't much better but they were usable. |

Were they the CIPA style I illustrated in the previous post or the CIPA strap-on one's illustrated below? I have been using some similar to the ones illustrated below, which I purchased at KRAGEN and they have the problems you mentioned. They slip off and it is impossible to get them really securely attached to the OEM mirrors. Please clarify!

Les,
Believe I wrote of these, and gave a more extensive description, once before. I've tried a lot of different mirrors over the years, but for the past four I've been using Tow-N-See mirrors, made by Horst Dynamics, Inc. I really like them! Check 'em out at: Amazon.com: Horst Dynamics Inc. Flat Tow 'N See™ Mirror: Sports & Outdoors One of the customer reviews at Amazon is highly critical and talks about the mirrors bouncing around excessively. I wonder if that reviewer had some mount issues with the vehicle mirror. I use these on a 2007 Suburban, attaching them to the standard power mirrors that came with the vehicle, and I've never experienced excessive vibration. In fact, these are the most stable and secure mirrors I've had since the old tripod fender mount mirrors of an earlier era. They are WAY more stable than any of the many strap-on mirrors I've tried over the years. Jim |
