Tow mirrors

[carb87]

Decided to bite the bullet and ordered me a set of tow mirrors for the truck. Tired of not seeing the whole picture while towing the trailer. After some research I ended up ordering a set of trail ridge mirrors from 1aauto.com. There were cheaper options but these aren't badly priced at $225. Reviews I found seam pretty good. Seems that most aftermarket mirrors have a tendency to shake. These supposedly don't and they are warrantied for as long as I own the truck. hopefully they will be here Friday and I can get them put on. Ill try and post some picture after I get them on. I was also was given some window visors going to try and put those on at the same time.

Well I was finally able to get the mirrors and visors installed. All was pretty easy and went together really quick.

Yeah I need to. I drove it around a little now. They seam to work good. It was pretty windy today and they didn't shake at all in either position. Just a little vibration in the glass portion but nothing bad. Might be a little while before I get the trailer hooked up for the true test though.

They fold in towards the truck and flip up for towing manually.The convex mirrors adjust manually too. The main mirrors though have defrost and adjust electrically. I know that they sale ones that fold towards the truck electronically but I'm not sure if they have ones that will flip up.

At least you have a flat right mirror that no longer distorts where the trailer should be.
I like the big flat on top and the small curved on the bottom. Gives a bigger viewing area and less chance of the trailer dropping out of sight.

Looks great, and the price looks reasonable.
