It took months for these to arrive from overseas, but that’s what seems to be happening these days. The agent kept in touch, letting us know how the delivery was coming along, and finally, the large carton was delivered to our doorstep.
This project was put on hold while Robin had his knee replacement surgery, and had weeks of recovery. Although he was keen to install them himself on the Jeep, in the end he agreed that this job might be a little beyond him, while he was recovering and a little unsteady on his feet for the time needed to perform this task. The easy way out was to get the local garage to do the job instead. Just as well, as the car panels had to be removed, and it all took several hours.
The mirrors are direct replacements for the OEM mirrors, in that they use the original mounting positions and the electrical plugs are interchangeable. Therefore all the original mirror functions are maintained.
So our old mirrors were removed, and the new adjustable Clear View mirrors put in place. Robin agrees they do a great job when towing, and he is very pleased with his purchase.
Mirrors extended for towing.

Those mirrors look great for towing - excellent view down the side of the vehicle and the caravan!

A great addition to your tow vehicle. We have some, although a slightly different style. They are terrific.
