I decided to order some tow mirrors from a company that a member (Stephen H) had suggested. First, I ordered the wrong mirrors, Because they were heated, and I don't have heated mirrors. I ordered them on sunday, and they arrived on monday. On Tuesday I tried to install, and realized they had the wrong connector. So they took them back and issued a refund, and then sent a new set on tuesday. I got them on wednesday, and installed them. I noticed the chrome backing had some type of scratch, or buff mark that was really noticeable on one mirror. So I called to ask for a new back plate (they come with either black or chrome backers in the box) thinking they would send a new back plate. They are sending a whole new set of mirrors, tomorrow, and told me to keep the other set incase I ever need one. I was blown away, these mirrors were 300.00 dollars. If you need any type of parts, try here first. https://www.1aauto.com/

+1 on 1A Auto. They support their customers.

I'm looking forward to reading what you think of the mirrors once you have towed with them.

I know. They are pretty nice whether towing or not.. They sure beat the stock Frontier mirrors.

So I finally towed the pod with the new mirrors. Really big difference, I wish I'd bought them sooner. So easy to see while towing, and even better when backing into a site. My stock mirrors were pretty useless when backing, but now I think I can back into just about anywhere without a spotter.

I kind of figured you would like them. They are much better than the stock ones.
