I have the same opinion of the CIPA mirrors, which I use on my F150. The left side is excellent. I adjust the standard truck mirror to see as far out to the side as possible (I have to lean over to the window to see the side of my truck) and then the CIPA mirror is adjusted to see back around behind the trailer. I can really see most everything this way.
I adjust the right side the same way, but the right hand CIPA mirror is too far away from me to provide a really good view of the area behind the right side of the trailer.
But, they attach very securely to the truck's mirrors and don't vibrate much at all. They are easy to install and remove.
I used a brand that strapped to the truck's doors when I had a Nissan Frontier. They worked well too, but they were a lot of trouble to mount. I also applied clear plastic tape to the door surface to protect the paint when I used them. I also worried about the straps stretching if they got wet during rains, but that never seemed to be a problem (didn't really drive through too many rain storms though).
