Tow mirrors

I’m in need of tow mirrors for my 2022 tundra, anyone on here knows of an aftermarket option? I how a quote from my dealerships for $1600….PER FN MIRROR!!! So not really wanting to spend 3200 bucks for two mirrors +tax and Install. Any info is appreciated, TIA

 

Milenco

 

I need to buy some tow mirrors for my 2023 Tundra and I'd like to know if anyone has any experience with the Milenco towing mirrors on their 2022 or 2023 Tundra. Which model did you purchase? Pros/cons?

 

I got the Grand Aero model.

Pros: Cheaper than 6k for factory tow mirrors on my 22’ Tundra, lightweight, work well, don’t vibrate & easily removable.

Cons: Tightness will need to be checked regularly, if not the usually break when they fall off at 65mph.

 

OEM are not real great mirrors ....top mirror isnt big enough and the bottom mirror is too big

 

someone had posted they bought these and worked good. i bought a set until the boost mirrors come out sometime this year https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001AJH1HK?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details

 

+1 for the Milenco

I've used them for going on 7 years now, first on the '00 Tundra and now on the '19 and I would buy them again in a heartbeat. They don't vibrate (as in you can actually see a clear picture in them) and they stay put.

I don't think you can do better for $130

 

In case folks come across this thread in the future here is an aftermarket option that looks pretty slick.

I took a chance on these and I'm pretty happy with them with one minor exception.
(Crappy review and pictures on a pretty decent product incoming.)


Only "on the truck" picture I took. Folded in here.
They look good and blend in well. No hardware arms or other exposed attachment hardware like some other add-on tow mirrors. Clear lens areas for your blinkers to shine through.


Here you can see how they attach. 2 narrow fixed "hooks" on top and a single, wider pivoting/hinged hook on the bottom.


This is the minor exception I noted above. The passenger side mirror got a small gouge in it from the tow mirror. About 1/4" long.


And this is why. On the inside of the tow mirrors there are sharp plastic split-lines where sections of the mold meet. I have since sanded them down smooth.

No other concerns.
Surprisingly, I didn't notice any increase in wind noise from them.
The attachment "hooks" didn't leave any marks at all.
I'm a newbie to camper towing, but I thought the additional mirror width was helpful.
Overall, would recommend.
I got mine from Scamazon, but they're currently showing as unavailable.

Just got them today from trashazon. I had a similar set on my old Silverado and they worked great.

Make sure you look for those sharp edges on the inside and sand them smooth before installing so you don't scar your mirror like I did.

 

Thanks for the heads up @BlackNBlu . I hadn’t thought about that so I’m glad you pointed it out on your post.

 

I have these for my '22. They work great and there's no chance their falling off.

 

Wish I could find a source north of the border. Can't seem to find anyone selling them here in Canada.

In Case anyone has any questions about towing mirrors.

 

Bumping to say thank you. We are about to pull out for another long weekend and even with my back up cam I was browsing some options.. so I ordered the ones mentioned and will be grinding down that section before putting on.. maybe...

 

I have these and they work great. I just hauled a 24' race ready car trailer 500+ miles and they performed flawlessly.

 

I have the Etrailer mirrors. They are secure. My issue with the stock mirrors was not being able to see the trailer in a tight turn. Mostly backing/parking situations. When I adjust the mirrors to accomplish this, I see nothing in them in normal driving. They accomplish what I need them to accomplish, and they stay put, so I am satisfied with them.

 

I'll echo, thanks for the heads up. On a positive note, it looks like the manufacturer may have gotten feedback on this because the seams clearly looks sanded or polished down on mine when they arrived the other day.

 

Link please?

Welcome to the forum. I've never been "that guy" before but you've got to put forth just the slightest effort. There's 20 posts in this thread not including yours and almost half of them have the link copied in someway, not including the products discussed in the thread link that appears at the bottom of the page.

 

I just received a set and i was looking for where to sand haha. Seems smooth other than the parts covered by the tape.
