- amxpressExplorerI used these CIPA mirrors on my Tacoma when towing. They worked well.
CIPA universal tow mirrors - GrandpaKipExplorer IIWe use Aero 2 mirrors. Got them from Amazon.
- Heavy_Metal_DocExplorerI bought the "Grand Aero" towing mirrors. The mounting clamps are small enough to grab onto just about any style vehicles stock mirror head or arm. They work great except the housing is aerodynamic with the mounting point being the farthest forward - this makes them stick a bit far back, rather than the glass being right in the same plane as the vehicle stock mirrors.
- BossCamperExplorerMcKesh Towing Mirrors by Hensley Mfg.McKesh Towing Mirrors by Hensley Mfg. will fit anything. We've had our set for 5 years now and they still work fine. Nice big mirrors. They are a bit more that many, but you get what you pay for. On and off in just a few seconds! They might look clunky, but they really work!
- dgtjhattExplorerAgree McKesh is the best out there. You can always find them for sale on craig list and save a lot on money.
- campthewestcoasExplorerA few years ago I had the same problem with my toyota tacoma, they don't make an extendable towing mirror for import trucks. For a while I used the universal strap-on style mirrors on my stock mirrors but the vibration was so bad I was getting motion sickness LOL.
Just within the past year, a company started making a mirror that bolts it place of the stock toyota tacoma mirror that flips up to become a full towing mirror like the fullsize dodge ram mirror.This mirror may fit on your landcruser with some modifing of the base. Online with 1a auto parts.com, I saw it listed under tacoma towing mirrors.
I did something a little different because I didn't like what was on the market.
I installed powervision mirrors.com from a 98 chevy which are power extend/ power retract plus full electric mirror adjustment.This modified set up is alot of work and is the most difficult to do.
The base of the chevy mirror was smaller than the stock toyota mirror, so I drilled new mounting holes in the toyota door and used a 1/4 semi-truck mud flap as a gasket/ molding for the new mirror. I wired the chevy mirrors to my stock toyota mirror adjustment switch for the stock look of my dash because the mirror adjustment uses reverse poliarty to move the glass I just had to hook up the wires using a toyota and chevy wiring diagrams
I installed a seperate switch for the power extend/ power retract function I found a switch that fits in one of my knock out blanks in the dash. Let me know if you have any questions.
