The pair I have doesn't vibrate much and that's why I've kept them by removing and installing from two previous GM tow vehicles to my current one.
BTW I extended them while towing my TT once but couldn't see the difference in the side view so pushed them back in and haven't extended them ever since.
The CIPA ones I am talking about don't extend. They just clamp on over the existing mirrors. My physics is rusty, but the further out the mirror is, the angle allows to see past the trailer corner at a "deeper" angle, allowing you to see something closer than otherwise.
The main concern is knowing if there is someone back there before changing lanes.
