Mirrors

Just wondering, has anyone used the "tow-n-see" mirrors and if so do you like them... any pros & cons?

Re: Mirrors


I have one and I plan to get another for the passenger side.

The suction device really works. You turn a knob and it sucks itself onto the mirror surface ( same as my Tom Tom GPS EasyMount ). It does vibrate some at 110 kph, but so would you if you had your head out the window at that speed.

It has an elastic that you loop over the mirror, like a safety strap on skis.

On my RAV4, it allows me to see much further behind the trailer, for fast overtaking cars.

Takes seconds to mount and dismount when leaving the vehicle parked.

I went with the normal view version, rather than wide-angle.

Re: Mirrors

I have a Tacoma as well and bought these mirrors for both sides. I used them for a 6 week trip two years ago and haven't stuck them on since. They do work well but in the end I feel the stock mirrors on the truck allow me to see enough of what's behind me.

Cheers
