Annoying and worst buy

I bought 2 mirrors for my Ram 2500, worst pieces of equipment i could have bought. Installation was a pain with the pads always falling off. Driving down any road makes them vibrate loose (even after using a wrench to tighten them). Shutting any of the doors make them fall out of place. Do yourself a favor, don't by these mirrors. Take the money and invest it into something better well made. All your paying for is headaches.

Cheap made, cheap to buy. A person needs three hands to install these things with another person standing by to pick up pieces from the ground when they fall off. Actutally, once installed, they did not vibrate and vision was pretty good, but a couple of door openings and shutting later, they would fall off, the last time it broke the mirror on one, time to go to the trash can. If the mounting system could be improved, they would be ok, not great, but ok.

Very Annoying

I tried these on my Lexus GX470 and found them very annoying. They don't position well for greater visibility, the pads fall off (I tried super glue and it helped), but these weren't the the worst things about them. At around 50 MPH they start to hum like the sound of a horn honking at you from behind the trailer. It never stopped. Even though I knew it was going to happen I still looked around each time it began to see what the problem was. I hated them and when one slipped out of my hand and dropped to the ground it shattered the mirror. I ditched them and fabricated some with the help of a friend and a hot air gun from ones designed to fit a Ford truck. We then cut holes in them for a Velcro strap and they work much better.

CIPA UNIVERSAL TOW MIRRORS - POOR TO VERY POOR QUALITY

I found these mirrors to be difficult to adjust while traveling. Seldom do they stay in position which requires one to stop and readjust each side. On our final leg home one mirror actually separated from our vehicle and crashed into many fragments as it struck the pavement. I was not upset because I had planned to do replace the mirrors upon our arrival.

Its simple and it works. The foam feet design sucks.

I have been using these mirrors on my Toyota Sequoia for about 2 years, 10,000 miles, 25 trips. They work great. The whole mounting system is simple and effective. I have driven 60 mph into a 60 MPH headwind in the Columbia Gorge twice. Both times the mirrors worked fine. I clean dirt and bugs off the Toyota mirrors before mounting - the feet have not damaged the paint on the mirrors at all. The only design shortcoming is the little foam feet attachment socket, which fall off the adjustment screw and get lost - making the whole mirror unmountable/useless. I find them on the ground in my garage or at the camping site all the time.

I own a 2004 Dodge pickup I have used this mirror three times and every time I have to stop several times to rejust and tighten it up. It is really bad if you get into rain it tries to fall off. Not happy with it at all.

Don't fit Ford

I've used a pair of these and they just don't seem to fit newer Ford mirrors. I've got a 2006 F-150 and I had to shim the brackets with card board to keep them from pulling off. They stayed on but I was afraid that I would be missing one by the end of my 20 mile trip

I've used these mirrors 5 times this year and not had a single problem. They are rock solid! Make sure you don't lose the pads for the feet! Super glue them on if you have to! I think that is the key to it!

Not a good fit for my truck mirrors

This mirror unit is very difficult, if not impossible, to stabilize on the existing mirror. It just continues to shift positions, no matter how tight I am able to adjust the connecting straps. A big disapointment.

Fantastic Tow Mirror

Purchased two of these mirrors at my local Camping World (Knoxville, TN) to use one my Land Rover LR3 HSE and they work perfectly! Tried another type of clip on tow mirror that had rubber straps and lost them both within 5 miles of home. These mirrors on the other hand strap down nice and tight and the way you are able to crank them down makes them a good fit for many types of mirrors. I noticed in a previous review of these mirrors that someone was complaining about the plastic clips breaking. I guess the company listened as they are now metal. They do not damage your regular mirrors and the rubber support feet that come on these universal mirrors do a great job of keeping them from vibrating at highway speeds. I have now taken them on two different trips and have even kept them on the Rover without towing just to see how they do at higher speeds. I have had my Land Rover up to 100mph with these mirrors attached and they were solid as a rock. One thing I will say is make sure you crank down the straps as tight as you can and do it once more after the straps are on for a while or get wet as they have a little give in them after a while and you are able to crank them down another notch or two after having them installed for a couple of days. I could not be happier with these mirrors! Money well spent and I recommend them to everyone that needs a universal tow mirror especially if you happen to have a Land Rover. For those of you that do not have a Land Rover I think these will work equally as well for you as the Land Rover LR3 has very deep mirrors that are difficult to get any other types to fit on. If they worked for it they will most likely work for your vehicle as well.

On a trip, had them fall off our '01 Expedition twice, second time broke the glass mirror! Yes, all the feet were intact, and tightness checked at every stop.

Works ok but, the plastic hooks that attach the strap to the truck mirror break very easy. I made some metal ones almost like the plastic and now everything is good to go next week. If you can get three larger rubber pads for the back of it will help.

These mirrors were a waste of money! We used them when we went camping all the way to Alaska and back and they never stayed put ! We finally had to tape them on with duct tape and we still had a problem with them!!

I bought a pair of these mirrors to use on my '08 Tundra Pick up, to aid me in pulling my 33' travel trailer. I can honestly say I would have been better off giving the money to a homeless person on the side of the road. I found them unusable. They would not mount on my side mirrors very easy, and when I finally got them on, they would move as soon as I closed the door. Any little vibration makes them slide down. I was better off not using them at all. Think twice before you make the mistake I did.

Needs Improvement

I have used these now for 2 seasons. I have been looking for something better as these leave a lot to be desired. They do not stay in place when going down the road. The brackets that hook over your existing vehicle mirror break and when you try to make it tighter to stay in place, it just quits racheting and gets no tighter. I am still looking for something else, but so far I have found nothing. They need to make something other than plastic to attach it to the vehicle. I have not contacted the company to complain as of yet, but I will be contacting them.
