Custom Blind Spot Mirrors For Gladiator Towing

[NXTGENAutomotive]

Just installed mine on my Gladiator. Works great.

I am going to buy another pair for my towing mirrors to enhance their utility too.

Thank you for your orders and we are so glad you like them!!

Whelp, just went and done did it. Ordered another pair for my towing mirrors. Should make any necessary lane changes easier because I will (hopefully) be better able to see down the sides of my trailer, and what's approaching the rear corners of my trailer. It's a 27 footer that's 7 1/2 feet wide so...

The only caveat is that objects in the blind spot mirrors are MUCH smaller than what is seen in the regular mirror (though to be fair, "Objects in the rear view mirror may be closer than they appear" for the factory passenger side mirror anyways) so, even though I may be able to see things better, will still have to be cognizant of distance being distorted by the blind spot mirrors. But, at least I'll still be able to see what's coming up my sides.

I broke down and ordered a set this morning. The 10% discount covered the sales tax. I have a generic set I bought five years ago for the first Gladiator that I never got installed. They are sitting in a box of stuff that came out when I traded it. These look like they will work better. It will be nice to be able to see the lines when backing into parking spots.

We wanted to be careful to make these big enough that they are very useful, but not take up too much of these small Jeep mirrors.

When we tow with our personal Jeep, these are very, very helpful. Whether they were our product or not I would not feel comfortable towing without them. Which is why we made them!!

Just ordered a set this morning. The mirrors on the JT are not good for towing. hopefully this helps. I'll provide a report once installed and I've had a chance to pull one of the trailers.

Cheers

We appreciate the order!!

Pretty happy with these so far. Still a flip of the coin for mounting position- top or bottom.

I got them installed today. I have a road trip for work tomorrow, so we'll see how they do. I waited for the sun to drop below the horizon, and used some alcohol wipes to clean the glass. I didn't bother with the hair dryer, since it was 114° outside.

Hope you have a great and safe trip!

No need to heat the adhesive in 114. I’m originally from Phoenix so I know how that goes!! 🫠

This is how they turned out.

So, I added them to my towing mirrors and WOW, one can really see further out down the sides of my trailer. My trailer is 7.5' wide. Just arrived in Williamsburg, VA from S.E. PA and they are a real help.

One caveat though...it really poured HEAVY rain several times on the way down, to the point of traffic moving at like 25 MPH. My only complaint is that when they get wet, one can't see bupkis. I was able to get around that, when the rain subsided a bit, I was able to reach out and simply wipe them with my finger, disturbing the accumulated drops so they fell off, then I could see again.

Other than that, I am VERY pleased with them.
