just got my towing mirrors for the Chrysler Town and Country. I haven't seen these mentioned here very much and wanted to show this as an option for people out there. Maybe do a longer term review as they age too. here they are installed from the front. These mirrors use fancy suction cups to mount directly to the TV's mirrors... I know.. I know... Suction Cups????? Yes, but they are a little more than just that. These give the user an advantage that no other add on Tow Mirrors can give... the ability to adjust the tow mirrors from inside the TV by using the power mirrors in the TV. There is a drivers side and a passenger side... The drivers side is a flat mirror while the passenger side is convex. Here are a few more pics, a little closer upThere is a knob on the end of the mount that you turn to create a very strong vacuum that holds the mirror very securely. Sounds crazy but there is little to no vibration in the mirror at towing speeds, there is a safety strap just in case the mirror falls off. The instructions are pretty clear, clean the mirror, clean the suction cup.. install, tighten the knob down. Here is a picture of the convex mirror..Why did I choose these?These mirrors are the only option that do not clamp onto the body of the mirror or on the door of the TV. They are the only aftermarket tow mirror that is somewhat adjustable on the fly. Anyway.. I don't have a lot of miles on them right now, but plan to put thousands on this summer with the PUP.. we will see how they hold up and if any issues arise.. I may try to update this thread from time to time as they wear in and if any issues pop up. Thanks!Jeremiah

I used one of them on my Expedition, as I was trying to find anything that would fit on the passenger side mirror. It did vibrate quite a bit. I also had problems with them staying on after about a year of usage. If the mirror was slightly dirty, the suction cut wouldn't get a good vacuum and they would fall off after a couple of miles. Make sure you use the safety strap in case that happens. I even had it fall off once when the temperature warmed up 20 degrees after about 4 hours of towing.The other problem I was having was that each time my wife would get in or out and close the door, I would have to readjust the mirror. This was not a major problem, as the power adjusters would move it, but it was something else had to be done.They were indeed adjustable from the inside of the vehicle, and that was useful sometimes to double check exactly where the tire was tracking (to avoid some object - usually at gas stations or campgrounds).

Be careful around those type mirrors, I have a set I no longer use because they got bumped into a few times by people and ended up stripping the motorized mechanism in my power mirrors. :(

Thanks for the Feedback! I'll try to be careful to remove the mirrors or turn in my mirrors if parked and I need them on. I did leave them on today and drive into work...seems to work great up to 62-65 mph...there is vibration above that though. Thanks!Jeremiah

I can think of some potential problems with those. Did you consider the Grand Aero 2?

Hi APT...yes..I strongly considered the Aero 2... If these do not work out for me then I will be buying the Aero 2. I wanted to try and avoid a clamping add on mirror on my painted bezels and I wanted to try the adjustability of the mirror via the power mirrors. Plus these things weigh nothing...holding these and the other types of mirror show the significant weight difference. The mirror and the suction cup must absolutly be clean for it to work correctly and that's the big caveat. Thanks!Jeremiah
