I had K-source mirrors on my Suburbans and Tahoes , they snap on solid, but taking them on and off is tough and I did break tabs on both sides but only one and they still worked, if you leave them on no issue , but with driving in the woods of Pa. they are not an all the time option…..Jack
My JT won't see any tight trails. (yet..) I bought the JT max tow so I could haul my Samurai based Buggy to and from the trails and some what relive the top down road trip days on the way to the trail

So last week I past a Blue JT towing an 8ft wide camp trailer through Stevenson WA. It had big old fashion tow mirrors that bolted to the cowl and fender. I could easily see their mirror from mine once I pasted them, we were headed in opposite directions.
They were something similar to this.
Anybody know anything about this???

Bumping this, anyone end up trying the boost mirrors? I've been looking for a split glass design and so far these are the only ones I've found. I don't much care for the look of them though with the lights all over them, but if it's the only split glass option I guess I can deal with it.

Just picked up our travel trailer for camping this season with our new (to us) '21 Overland. Used to tow with an '18 Grand Cherokee until that got totaled earlier this year.

Anyways, wanting to get towing mirrors. Looks like the best 2 options are either the Rampage with the adapters from Thorn Engineering, or the K Source available from Amazon.

Just wondering which would give us the widest view possible? Our TT is 8' wide and I know neither of them will let us see around that width, but wanting to get as much as possible.

TIA

Rampage with the Thorne Engineering adapters. What I use are the mirrors that were for the JK, I got from Amazon, with the Thorne adapters and, I'm very happy with them. My trailer is 7 1/2' wide and I can see clearly what's coming up on me.

Also, do a search here for a thread about those little convex mirrors that you can stick in the upper corner of your extended mirrors. I have them on mine, and also on my regular mirrors. The make a HUGE difference when looking down the sides of your trailer as to what's coming up beside you. Really eliminates the blind spots when towing, and even when not towing (the regular mirrors).
