RE: Towing Mirrors to fit 5X7 mirrors?

I have the universal mount CIPA mirrors and I think they work pretty
good. They are a little small, but I can see what I need to see. They
attach pretty good actually and the mirror image does not rattle. I
would also like to get the bigger stock mirrors and get the custom fit
mirrors, but that's for another day, these satisfy my needs for now. I
didn't like the ones that Jason has because I thought that the strap
might rub too much on the paint and the CIPA ones look cooler.

You could try these, they should clip on to just about any mirror:

Except for the fact that they suck :-). I've seen them in person, and
they don't clip on very securely, which means that they shake a lot.
Plus
they're too small to do much good, and they probably won't stick out far

enough to see around the trailer.

We use these:

They work very well. CIPA also makes a mirror with a similar mount, but

the mirror surface is smaller.
