Towing mirrors?

I bought them and get them today. I will let you know how they work.

So what’s up Nadoze? Did you get the mirrors and did they work? Pics?

What's the verdict?

He hasn’t been seen out here since 12/12/24 when he posted that. I had messaged him a while back to get an update and got no response.

That company still doesn’t have any photos of someone installing them successfully on ours vehicle. I’ve chatted with their support, trying to get a better feeling about making the purchase, but they didn’t give me any confidence.

I have not found any extension mirrors that work. I resorted to a wireless rear camera on our trailer which was pre-wired for one. I sit a 5-inch screen on the dash with a beanbag that is powered by the 12-volt plug. Works okay and the screen is easily removed when not towing. This approach probably isn't an option with rental trailers unless they are prewired and you remove your camera when finished renting.

I'm considering this option for now for the rental camper I'm getting for an upcoming trip It's completely wiress and charged by solar. Plus the mount is magnetic so you can just pop it off when you are done with the camper. I'll just have to remember to pop it off when I leave it parked somewhere or risk it walking off with some help from unsavory person.

So, this particular item was a big fail for me. Others might work but this one kept either freezing or completely losing the signal about once a minutes. Every time the signal was lost I was worried the damn thing had fallen off. I shut it down after just 20 minutes as it was worse than useless.

FYI, I was towing an 18 foot camper so the total distance from camera to monitor should have been something less than 30-35 feet. This was supposed to work "up to 56 feet".

That being said, I was able to get by with the stock mirrors and craning my neck.
