Thread: Towing mirrors - D3

I have got a set of clearviews on my 79 series ute and they are really good, I would fit a set of these to my D2a in a heartbeat but they don't make them for D2's unfortunately.

Problem is when not towing they make the vehicle look like

There’s several using a less intrusive mirror, a quick search would find it.

I use these on my D4: Drive Towing Mirror - With Magnetic Support Pad, Single - Supercheap Auto
Very happy.

I call those Clearview mirrors "Look at me mirrors" as many of those that have keep them extended and do indeed make them look like elephant ears. I use just on which straps onto the right hand mirror but is quite deep and wide but can be a bit of a pig to set correctly when taking wind force into account. But it does the job well enough without the expence of the Clearview or altering the vehicle and is better than many now on the market.
No name on it (I've got 2 but use the one) but I've had them for years.

I’ve never bothered with extend mirrors when I towed a caravan......whats behind me was of little interest......

I do wonder why those with clear views don’t pull them in when not towing......must be an effort or need tools to do it.

Nope. They simply push/pull. It’s laziness I guess?
