Aftermarket Tow Mirrors

Anyone using aftermarket tow mirrors? A friend of mine is looking for something to replace the electric heated mirrors on his gen2 so that he can see around his trailer.

Looking for some feedback as to which ones you like and where you got them.

Thanks,

schu

Dodge has some nice mirrors at competitive prices. I am looking for tow glass also.

The nice dodge ones don't have heaters or electronics so that pretty much forces my friend into the aftermarket.

I've got **** tow mirrors on mine. You slide them out manually, but at least the mirrors are power/heated. I believe Geno's garage sells them...

Here are the mirrors that were on my truck when I bought it:

I just retrofited my 2001.5 Dodge with 2002 heated power tow mirrors. It was a time consuming project - but I'm happy with the results. Check out these threads: Pictures http://www.turbodieselregister.com/u...&albumid=16271

Here are the ones I just installed on my truck.

They are the new Cipia's and have power, heat, and turn and marker lights. Mine are the deluxe set with the lights and chrome caps. I've only had them for a few days now but I already love them. The increased rear vision is awesome and the fact that they don't vibrate like my stock mirrors is also nice.

The Powervision Mirrors are available heated now too! I have them on my truck and they are great. We also install them at work and personally I haven't seen a nicer mirror. The new ones have a more rounded style that fits the looks of the trucks better.

Here's a pic of it too.

I'm thinking of adding on another 16' and building a loft.
