tow mirrors

I have a non-tow 06 and just put on the hitch relays/brake controller etc (piece of cake!!) but can't find mirrors...dealer wants $350 and I said only with a gun to my head...all 'add on' mirrors I tried don't fit....any source yet for aftermarket mirrors? Any RV sites that can help? We pick up the (20') camper soon.....are the stock mirrors any use at all for a 8' trailer...at least until i can find cheaper solution?

Re: tow mirrors

Check Ebay or even the Buy Sell section here. They pop up from time to time. Outside of that there's no aftermarket avaiable that is a direct replacement.

If you get the mirrors for the same trim level, ie. LE to LE or SE to SE they would be plug and play.

Re: tow mirrors

I am buying an 07 Titan XE. Need big tow mirrors and need to know what I need to power them.
Can anyone help?
Does anyone have a set for sale, I would trade for the brand new manual ones.
How on Earth can Nissan offer the ultimate tow vwehicle, with Tow Package and not offer towing mirrors??? The salesmen are all convinced the tow package includes them (and it does not:-) so be careful)
Thanks

Re: tow mirrors

Only the LE and SE with tow package come with the tow mirrors, the XE with tow package does not come with tow mirrors. You could mount the nirrors but would have to run wires to make the power work.

Re: tow mirrors

The impoverished people who are buying an XE have to select the Tow Package as an option. I was about to buy the XE when I discovered (despite the salesmens claims otherwise) that the 'tow package' does not include the 'Big Tow' mirrors! It is not even possible to buy them as an option as the XE does not even have electric mirrors :-(

The stock mirrors are of no use for your trailer. I have an XE with the BT. I bought some add-on trailers that strap on the my oem mirrors. They work better than my friend's tow mirrors on his SE. They're wider, but not as cool looking.

That's pretty neat.

Here's a cheaper solution.
