Tow Mirrors
I have a 2015 Toyota Tundra 1794 Ed that I pull my TT with. The dealer tells me that Toyota does not have towing mirrors anymore. They stated that they quit producing these a few years ago. I know there are several options for mirrors to be attached when towing. Which is the best?

The most important is large and long enough to see and NOT Vibrate! On slow day's Mi.& Ky. police love to Issue Ticket's for No Tow Mirror's! Just because you have a Truck with a Tow Package does Not mean it also Has Tow Mirror's!   Youroo!!

Tow Mirrors
Look on amazon. I got replacement tow mirror for my f 150. Better than clip on.

Cipa brand works well for me. Good price and model specific. No vibration problems. Fit over existing mirrors.

I bought new Toyota OEM tow mirrors about 2 years ago from either Sparks Toyota or Concelli Toyota (can't remember). Check with them, as I doubt that they have been discontinued as your local dealer says. Both are reputable and offer OEM parts discounted.

I was going to order aftermarket Silverado mirrors for my Avalanche but wound up getting the CIPA mirrors at the RV dealer when we picked up the trailer. Easily installed and removed. No vibration problems.

I used CIPA mirrors from Amazon.com on my last two trucks, and never had a problem with vibration or not being able to see. They covered the factory mirrors completely and looked like OEM mirrors. In fact, I liked them so well I left them on the truck even when I wasn't towing.
My new truck came with Chevrolet towing mirrors from the factory, so I sold my CIPA mirrors for almost what I paid for them.
Highly recommend them.

They are available...I replaced my Tundra stock with the tow or "extended" and love them! (I do need to put my old mirrors on Craigslist and try to sell them....I had the dealer install the new mirrors and put the old ones in the Toyota boxes.)
You can find them on this website: OUTSIDE MIRRORS for 2015 Toyota Tundra

Cipa is the way to go for clip ons. However, good as they are, factory tow mirrors will always be better.
