I have a 2012 Dodge 2500 that did not come with factory tow mirrors. Several dealerships have informed me that there are not yet any factory type tow mirrors that will work with my truck. They will bolt on perfectly, but the wiring is wrong. Cipa does not yet make the slip on type mirror for the newer Dodges either.

When I bought my 2012 Dodge Cummins, the dealer had to go out of state to find what I wanted. When it arrived, it had a tranny cooler, factory brake controller, hitch reciever, diesel and no towing mirrors. When I questioned why, the dealer responded that they weren't on my wish list. It was very obvious that I intended to tow something big. We went round and round and I was about to walk away, befor the dealer relented and moved a pair of mirrors from another truck. He kept telling me that it was a $600 option and a deal breaker. The mirrors on the truck were electronic adjustable and I knew that his cost on towing mirrors couldn't be $600 more.

I would buy the mirrors from Dodge and get someone else to wire them up. 12 Volts is 12 Volts in mirror heat and turn signal, even on a Peterbilt. Someone is just pretty dum at Doge!

you might need to get either clip on cipa mirrors or mckesh strap on mirrors. I had a similar issue with my old armada, used ones like the clip on mirrors below without any issues.

slide on cipa mirrors

clip on mirrors

mckesh strap on mirrors


There are lots more options at camping world and e trailer.

I went with the CIPA's and they work great. I put them on my 2500 Silverado when I first bought the mirrors in June 2011 and they have never been off. I highly recommend them.

I just recently bought THESE TOWING MIRRORS for my E350. They're so much better than the strap-ons. Larger mirror surface, very little vibration, and very easy to attach/remove. They'll also work on any mirror, unlike the now useless slip-ons I have for the Expedition I traded.

I have a 2009 Sport Trac. Forget getting mirrors for this too. I tried every type of clip on and strap type mirror and returned them all. The Suction cup mirrors are the best I've tried. They don't vibrate until about 75-80 MPH and they move with your remote controls. They come with safety straps, although they have not popped off yet.

Ram offers optional factory towing mirrors for 2013 1500. Can the dealer get a part number? Are there any on the the lots to find a VIN and part number?

Search the forum for mirrors. To much information out there to repeat.

I have a 2012 RAM 1500 and also tried to find aftermarket tow mirrors. Until they come out w/ some, will have to go with the strap on mirrors.
